Unitech MS860 manual Quick Start, Introduction

INTRODUCTION

QUICK START

1.Connect the plug of the power adapter into the power jack on the cradle, and connect the power adapter into an AC outlet. You will hear a beep, and the Power Status and Charging Status LEDs on the top of the cradle will glow green.

2.Use an unfolded paperclip to push down the battery power on/off internal switch located inside the round hole on the yellow warning label underneath the scanner. You will feel a ‘click’ as you push down the switch and then hear one beep from the scanner. When shipped from the factory, the scanner’s on/off switch is in the “off” position, so the scanner must be switched on before operation.

3.Place the MS860 scanner on the cradle - the cradle’s Charging Status LED will now glow red while charging. After 4½ to 5 hours the status LED color will change to green, meaning that the MS860 has been fully charged and is ready to use.
