CHARGING THE SCANNER Prior to performing any operation with the scanner, make sure it has been
charged.
The following explains how to determine if the scanner needs recharging:
1. During operation, the scanner gives two beeps after a successful scan.
This indicates the scanner has low power.
2. When a bar code is presented to the scanner and a scan line is not
activated, or the CodeGate button is pressed and the laser comes on for
brief moment. This indicates the scanner has automatically switched to
normal sleep mode due to low power.
3. When the CodeGate button is pressed and a scan line is not present.
This indicates the scanner has no power.
Before charging the scanner, it is suggested that the communication between the
scanner and the cradle be established first.
To charge the scanner, place the unit into the cradle. The amber LED on the
scanner begins to flash indicating the charing process has begun.
A complete charging process takes about 2.5 hours. The amber LED of the
scanner will turn steady when charging is complete. If charging the scanner for
the first time, it is suggested to keep the scanner on cradle for another 30
minutes after the amber LED turns steady.
Manufacturer’s Suggestion:
If the scanner is not be used for a long period of time, it is suggested that the unit
be placed into normal or full sleep mode to save power. For normal sleep mode,
scan the configuration bar codes in the Bluetooth Programming Addendum (00-
02024A). For full sleep mode, after the laser shuts off, depress the CodeGate
button and hold for 3 seconds, the scanner will give a long beep and switch into
full sleep mode. To wake-up the scanner from either mode, depress the
CodeGate button. After an automatic reset, the scanner is ready for normal
operation.
