AUDIBLE INDICATORS
When the MS5145 scanner is operational, it provides audible feedback. These
sounds indicate the status of the scanner. Eight settings are available for the
tone of the beep (normal, 6 alternate tones and no tone). To change the tone,
refer to the Configuration Guide.
One Beep – on power up
The green LED will turn on, then the red LED will flash and the
scanner will beep once. The red LED will remain on for the
duration of the beep. The scanner is now ready to scan.
One Beep – during operation
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the red LED
will flash and the scanner will beep once (if programmed to do
so). If the scanner does not beep once and the red light does
not flash, then the bar code has not been successfully read.
Three Beeps – during operation
When entering the program mode, the red LED will flash while
the scanner simultaneously beeps three times. The red LED
will continue to flash until the unit exits program mode. Upon
exiting program mode, the scanner will beep three times and
the red LED will stop flashing.
When configured for communication timeout, 3 beeps during
operation will indicate that a communication timeout has
occurred.
