Document Window 

The document window is a glass surface located on top of the reader. Place documents on the 
window to scan them. Keep this surface clean to ensure optimum operation of the reader.  

See Cleaning on page 22 for more information. 

Indicator LEDs 

The LEDs indicate the reader status and the result of scanning a document. 

Table 1: Indicator LED 

Ready  (green)  

The reader is ready to scan a document (when connected to the host 
application). 

Busy (amber)  

The reader is scanning a document and processing the data. 

OK (green)  

A known document type was presented and processing was 
successful. 

Error (red)  

The document is of an unknown type or did not process properly. 

Back Panel 

The back panel features the power switch, power supply connector and USB communication 
ports. Data is sent to the host PC through the USB 2.0 host connector.  
A built-in USB hub and two auxilliary USB 2.0 connectors allow you to connect additional USB 
peripherals. For example: mouse, keyboard and 2D barcode reader. In addition, the security loop 
can be used to tether the reader to the workplace.
