5.5 STEP 5 – Test Mode

Use a code suitable to your application to test the system.

1. To enter Test Mode, hold down the SMART-TEACH push button until the TEST LED is on.
2. Once entered, the bar graph on the five LEDs is activated and if the scanner starts reading barcodes, the bar graph

shows the Good Read Rate. In case of no-read condition, only the STATUS LED is on and blinking.
