If you connect an external power source to the scanner with REG. ALK. BATT./NI-MH BATT. set to REG. ALK. BATT., the scanner does NOT charge the batteries. Make sure that you use the correct batteries and set REG. ALK. BATT./ NI-MH BATT. to the correct position when you connect an external power source.

Using AC Power

You can power the scanner using the supplied 6V, 500 mA AC adapter.

To use the scanner on AC power, plug the AC adapter into DC 6V on the side of the scanner then plug the other end into a standard AC outlet.

If rechargeable batteries are installed without removing the sticker, or, after removing,

REG. ALK. BATT./NI-MH BATT. is set to NI-MH BATT., the adapter powers the scanner and recharges the installed batteries at the same time.
