Scanner Maintenance
The scanner is designed for long-term trouble-free operation and rarely
requires any maintenance. Only an occasional cleaning of the scanner window
is necessary in order to remove dirt and fingerprints.
Wipe the scan window with a soft lint-free cloth and a non-abrasive cleaner to
avoid the scan window from being scratched and damaged. The scan window
can be cleaned while the scanner is running.
The standard interface cable is attached to the scanner with a 10-pin modular
connector. When the connector is properly seated, it is secured in the scanner
by a flexible retention tab. The cable is designed to be field replaceable.
Replacement cables can be obtained from your authorized distributor. To
replace the cable, take the following steps.
1. Make sure the power of both the host terminal and the scanner is powered
off.
2. Disconnect the old scanner cable from the host terminal.
3. Press down the retention tab, and gently pull out the cable.
4. Insert the new interface cable into the bottom of the scanner until it clicks.
Then, plug the new cable into the host.

Troubleshooting
This section contains information about how to solve problems that you may
encounter when operating the scanner. If a trouble occurs, please refer to the
following diagnostic tips as a mean to solve the trouble. However, before
referring to the tips, make sure that the scanner is installed well. If the problem
remains, contact your dealer.
Problem
Diagnostic Tips
The scanner is on but cannot read
any barcode.
The scanner window is dirty. Clean the scanner
window as described in the Scanner
Maintenance section.
The presented barcode type is not enabled. Use
this guide to tell the scanner to accept that type
of barcode.
The host terminal has disabled the scanner.
Check the setup of host terminal.
The barcode type presented is not supported by
the scanner.
3
Problem
Diagnostic Tips
The scanner does not accept more
than two or three barcode labels.
Determine whether the required barcode types
are enabled or not.
A stray barcode is sitting somewhere in the
scanner field of view. Remove all barcode labels
from the scanner’s scan volume and try again.
The scanner cannot send the data to the POS
system. Make sure that the scanner is installed
well and your host POS system is ready to
receive data.
A barcode is read by the scanner
but not accepted by the POS
system.
The communication settings of the system port
and the scanner do not match. Adjust the settings
to make them match to each other.
The scanner is not installed well. Contact your
dealer for the proper installation. The software
running on the POS system does not support the
data format of the barcode label.
When a barcode stays close to the
scanner, the barcode cannot be read
automatically by the scanner.
Check whether or not you have enabled the
Manual Trigger mode. If you have enabled this
mode accidentally, please disable the Manual
Trigger mode by scanning the “Disable trigger”
barcode in the advanced user manual.
Programming Codes
Below are some suggestion you need to bear in mind while scanning labels:
1. The barcode labels shown with “ * ” are default factory settings.
2. Please cover the unwanted codes for scanning the specific barcode
required for the programming to prevent confusion in code scanning.
3. Use the user manual downloaded from our global website for advanced
programming.
4. While scanning the setup barcode labels provided in the quick guide, you
need to pull the trigger to initiate the decoding process.
Report Version
Scan the bar code below to report the version of software currently installed in
the decoder.

Report Decoder Manufacturing Information
Scan the bar code below to report the part number, serial number, and
manufacture date of the decoder.
Report Scan Engine Manufacturing Information
Scan the bar code below to report the part number, serial number, and
manufacture date of the scan engine.
Default Settings
Set Factory Defaults clears all custom default values and sets the factory
default values.
USB Device Type
Scan one of the following barcodes to select the USB device type.
NOTE: When changing USB Device Types, the engine resets and issues the
standard startup beep sequences.

Trigger Mode
Standard (Level): A trigger press activates decode processing. Decode
processing continues until the bar code decodes, or you release the
trigger.
Presentation (Blink): The engine activates decode processing when it
detects a bar code in its field of view. After a period of non-use, the
LEDs turn off until the engine senses motion.
Auto Aim: The engine projects the aiming pattern when it senses motion.
A trigger press activates decode processing. After two seconds of
inactivity the aiming pattern shuts off.
Auto Aim with Illumination: The engine turns on the aiming pattern and
internal illumination LEDs when it senses motion. A trigger press
activates decode processing. After two seconds inactivity the aiming
pattern and internal illumination LEDs automatically shut off.
Host and Hardware Trigger Mode: A host command or trigger press
issues the triggering signal, which is interpreted as a level trigger option.

Illumination
Selecting Enable Decoding Illumination causes the engine to turn on
illumination every image capture to aid decoding. Select Disable Decoding
Illumination to prevent the engine from using decoding illumination.
Enabling illumination usually results in superior images. The effectiveness of
illumination decreases as the distance to the target increases.
7
Aiming
Select Enable Decode Aiming Pattern to project the aiming pattern during
bar code capture, or Disable Decode Aiming Pattern to turn the aiming
pattern off.
Beep After Good Decode
Scan one of the following bar codes to select whether or not the engine beeps
after a good decode. If you select Disable Beep After Good Decode, the
beeper still operates during parameter menu scanning a indicate error
conditions.
