Radio Notice
This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy. If not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions in this manual, it may cause interference to
radio communications. The equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class A computing device pursuant to EN55022 and 47 CFR, Part 2 and Part 15
of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection
against interference when operated in a commercial environment.

USER MANUAL
Radio and Television Interference
Operation of this equipment in a residential area can cause interference to radio or
television reception. This can be determined by turning the equipment off and on. The
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
- Reorient the receiving antenna.
- Relocate the device with respect to the receiver.
- Move the device away from the receiver.
- Plug the device into a different outlet so that the device and the receiver are on
different branch circuits.
If necessary the user may consult the manufacturer, and authorized dealer, or
experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. The user may find
the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commission helpful:
How to Identify and Resolve Radio-TV Interference Problems. This booklet is available
from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402 U.S.A., Stock No.
004000003454.
Laser Safety
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. If not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions in this manual, it may cause interference to
radio communications. The equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class A computing device pursuant to EN55022 and 47 CFR, Part 2 and Part 15
of FCC Rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against
interference when operated in a commercial environment.
Radiant Energy: The laser scanner uses one low-power visible laser diodes operating at
650nm in an opto-mechanical scanner resulting in less than 3.9μW radiated power as
observed through a 7mm aperture and averaged over 10 seconds.
Do not attempt to remove the protective housing of the scanner, as unscanned laser light
with a peak output up to 0.8mW would be accessible inside.

USER MANUAL
Laser Light Viewing: The scan window is the only aperture through which laser light may
be observed from this product. A failure of the scanner engine, while the laser diode
continues to emit a laser beam, may cause emission levels to exceed those for safe
operation. The scanner has safeguards to prevent this occurrence. If, however, a
stationary laser beam is emitted, the failing scanner should be disconnected from its
power source immediately.
Adjustments: Do not attempt any adjustments or alteration of this product. Do not
remove the protective housing of the scanner. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
Optical: The use of optical instruments with this product will increase the eye hazard.
Optical instruments include binoculars, magnifying glasses, and microscopes but do not
include normal eye glasses worn by the user.
CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those
specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
For CE-Countries
This scanner is in conformity with CE standards. Please note that an approved, CE-marked
power supply unit should be used in order to maintain CE conformance.
Power Supply
Use only the type of battery and the charging equipments that came with your
scanner.
Using any other type of battery and charging equipment may damage the scanner
and invalidate the warranty.
Do not short the battery terminals. The battery could overheat.
Do not attempt to split or peel the outer casing.
Remove the battery if the scanner is not going to be used for a long time. If the
battery is left unused for more than 3 months, you need to charge the battery
before use.

USER MANUAL
Wireless Communication
Wireless technology operates 100M / 75M with communication dongle. Maximum communication
range may vary depending on obstacles (person, metal, wall, etc.) or electromagnetic environment.
The following conditions may affect the sensitivity of wireless communication.
There is an obstacle such as a person, metal, or wall between this unit and wireless device.
A device using 2.4 GHz frequency, such as a wireless LAN device, cordless telephone, or
microwave oven, is in use near this unit.
Because wireless devices and wireless LAN (IEEE802.11b/g) use the same frequency, microwave
interference may occur and resulting in communication speed deterioration, noise, or invalid connection
if this unit is used near a wireless LAN device. In such a case, perform the following.
Use this unit at least 10 m (about 30 ft) away from the wireless LAN device.
If this unit is used within 10 m (about 30 ft) of a wireless LAN device, turn off the wireless LAN
device.
Install this unit and wireless device as near to each other as possible.
Microwaves emitting from a wireless device may affect the operation of electronic medical devices.
Turn off this unit and other wireless devices in the following locations, as it may cause an accident.
Where inflammable gas is present, in a hospital, train, airplane, or a petrol station
Near automatic doors or a fire alarm
This unit supports security capabilities that comply with the wireless standard to provide a secure
connection when the wireless technology is used, but security may not be enough depending on the
setting. Be careful when communicating using wireless technology.
We do not take any responsibility for the leakage of information during wireless communication.
Connection with all wireless devices cannot be guaranteed.
A device featuring wireless function is required to conform to the wireless standard specified by
wireless SIG, and be authenticated.
Even if the connected device conforms to the above mentioned wireless standard, some devices
may not be connected or work correctly, depending on the features or specifications of the
device.
Depending on the device to be connected, it may require some time to start communication.
Tips to help improve your wireless network
1. Position the access point (host/dongle) in a relatively empty space at central location.
When possible, place the access point in a central location on the high ground (1m or above). If your access
point is against an outside wall, the signal will be weak on the other side of the room.

USER MANUAL
2. Move the access point (host/dongle) off the floor and away from walls and metal objects (such as metal file
cabinets). Metal objects, walls, and floors will interfere with your wireless signals. The closer your access
point is to these obstructions, the more severe the interference, and the weaker your connection will be.
3. Reduce wireless interference.
The most common wireless technology, 802.11g (wireless-G), operates at a frequency of 2.4 gigahertz (GHz).
Many cordless phones, microwave ovens, hospital equipments, refrigerator, LED, and other wireless
electronics also use this frequency. If you use these wireless devices in your office, your device might not be
able to "hear" the signals over the noise coming from them.
If your network uses wireless-G, you can quiet the noise by avoiding wireless electronics that use the 2.4
GHz frequency. Instead, look for cordless phones and other devices that use the 5.8 GHz or 900 megahertz
(MHz) frequencies. Because 802.11n (wireless-N) operates at both 2.4 GHz and the less frequently used 5.0
GHz frequency, you may experience less interference on your network if you use this technology.
4. Update the firmware or driver of your wireless dongle.
If you are using a wireless dongle or other similar devices to make the connection, getting the latest
firmware or driver updates may improve the performance. Visit your manufacturer’s website for the
updates.
