RangeGate
The operation range of Bluetooth communication is 10 meters between the
scanner and receiver/cradle. When the scanner is out of Bluetooth operation
range, the communication link with the cradle will break and the blue LED will
start to flash on the scanner. At which time, RangeGate will become active and
the bar codes scanned, while out of Bluetooth range, will be stored in the SRAM
of the scanner instead of being lost. Once communication is re-established, the
stored data will be transmitted to the receiver/cradle and then to the host device.
For the bar codes associated with this mode, please consult the MetroSelect
Single-Line Configuration Guide (MLPN 00-02544

Inventory Mode (Specific to MS9535-5M)
For light warehousing applications, Metrologic offers the MS9535-5M VoyagerBT
with extended memory and a unique feature called Inventory Mode. This mode
allows a customer to store approximately 2500 bar codes (length dependent)
with quantity information to facilitate inventory taking. This information can then
be transmitted in batch to the host by scanning a specific bar code or putting the
unit back into the cradle. For the bar codes associated with this mode, please
consult the MetroSelect Single-Line Configuration Guide (MLPN 00-02544
