VISUAL INDICATORS

The scanner has red and green LEDs. When the scanner is on, the LEDs indicate the status of the scan and scanner.

No Red or Green

The scanner will turn off if the scanner has

 

 

 

 

 

 

been dormant for a specified time. To

 

 

 

 

 

 

reactivate the unit, direct the output window

 

 

 

 

 

 

up then down toward the bar coded product.

 

 

 

 

 

 

If the unit has been dormant for longer than

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

10 minutes, reactivating the unit by pressing

 

 

 

 

 

 

the button on the side of the MS6130 will be

 

 

 

 

 

 

necessary.

Red Flash; Green Flash;

When the scanner first receives power, the

 

 

 

 

 

 

steady red LED will flash, followed by the

 

 

 

 

 

 

green LED.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Steady Red

When the laser is on, the red LED will also be

 

 

 

 

 

 

on. This occurs when an object is in the scan

 

 

 

 

 

 

field. If the scanner does not detect a bar

 

 

 

 

 

 

code within approximately 2.5 seconds, the

 

 

 

 

 

 

red LED will shut off indicating that the laser is

 

 

 

 

 

 

no longer on. If the red LED remains on for

 

 

 

 

 

 

longer than 7.5 seconds, then the scanner is

 

 

 

 

 

 

in program mode.

Steady Red; Green Flash

When the scanner successfully reads a bar

 

 

 

 

 

 

code, the green LED will flash. If the green

 

 

 

 

 

 

LED does not flash, then the bar code read

 

 

 

 

 

 

was not successful.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Repetitive Red Flashes

When the red LED flashes several times while

 

 

 

 

 

 

it lays upon a stationary surface, then an

 

 

 

 

 

 

object is within the scan field and is activating

 

 

 

 

 

 

the IR sensor. This can occur even while the

 

 

 

 

 

 

scanner is lying upon the counter or cradle.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To eliminate this disturbance, direct the scan

 

 

 

 

 

 

window toward a different location.
