SCANNER OPERATION

Audible Indicators

When the MS3780 is in operation, it can provide audible feedback. These sounds indicate the status of the scanner. Eight settings are available for the tone of the beep (normal, six alternate tones and no tone). For instruction on how to change the tone of the beeper, refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide (00-02407).

One Beep

When the scanner first receives power; the white LED will flash, one blue LED will turn on and the scanner will emit a beep (the white LED will remain on for the duration of the beep). The scanner is now ready to scan.

When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the white LED will flash and the scanner will emit one beep (if configured to do so). If the scanner does not emit one beep and the white light does not flash, then the bar code has not been successfully read.

Razzberry Tone

This is a failure indicator. Refer to Failure Mode Indicators on page 17.

Three Beeps - during operation

When placing the scanner in configuration mode, the white and blue LEDs will flash while the scanner emits three beeps. The white and blue LEDs will continue to flash until the unit exits the configuration mode. Upon exiting the configuration mode, the scanner will emit three beeps and the white LED will stop flashing.

When configured, three beeps can also indicate a communications timeout during normal scanning mode.

When using one-code-programming, the scanner will emit three beeps:

the current selected tone, followed by a short pause then a high tone and a low tone. This tells the user that the single code configuration has successfully configured the scanner.

Three Beeps - on power up

This is a failure indicator. Refer to Failure Mode Indicators on page 17.
