VISUAL INDICATORS
The scanner has RED and GREEN LED’s. When the scanner is on, these
visual indicators show the state of the scanner functionality.
Start Up Sequence
From Stand-by, once the user presses CodeGate button, the scanner goes into
start-up mode.
Whilst in this mode, the YELLOW LED is displayed.
1. The scanner starts checking its OS (Operating system). If there is an
error, RED and GREEN will be on and YELLOW will flash
continuously.
2. The scanner will check Flash integrity. If there is an error, RED and
GREEN will be on and YELLOW will flash once. After this the unit will
enter into user RF Flash mode (Same as when METEOR RF
Barcode is read. See how to load software via RF with METEOR RF
for details)
After OS and Flash has been successfully checked, YELLOW LED is off
and the unit will enter its own start-up sequence.
Synchronisation Sequence
Once the unit has finished all start-up sequences including Laser, Motor,
Flash,…. tests, Voyager RF will take the following actions:
Show its ID( Mobile Identification number) by keeping RED and
GREEN LEDs on while flashing YELLOW LED as many times as it
own ID (1 to 5)
Link with base station.
The RED LED will flash several times while trying to synchronise. In case
no link is made, the scanner will make a Razzberry tone with RED and
GREEN LED’s on.
Once the reason why the link was not made (out of coverage area, Base
powered off etc) is solved, the user is requested to press the CodeGate button
to continue. A Beep tone will be executed and the RED and GREEN LED’s will
be off.
Data Transmission Sequence
Once the unit has read a barcode, it will try to transmit the data to Base Station.
Every time a transmission is performed, the RED led will flash and the scanner
will wait for an acknowledgement from Base Station. If no ACK arrives after 14
tries, the unit will emit a Razzberry tone and the user will be requested to press
the CodeGate button to continue.
