Once the scanner enters Normal Operation, it begins a countdown
sequence. If there is no activity during a preset period of time (also called
time-out
1
), the unit will shut off the laser and/or motor in order to pro-
long the life of the electrical and mechanical components. Once the scan-
ner has timed out, it enters Sleep Mode.
Sleep Mode
After the scanner has been left idle for a preset period of time, the laser
and/or motor automatically turns off (goes to sleep). This state is called
Sleep Mode, and is indicated by a “slow” blink of the green light (blinking
at a 2-second rate). To wake up the unit, press the Volume/Tone Push
Button, wave your hand in front of the scan window, or scan an item
using an attached auxiliary scanner (if present). The scanner will recognize
these signals as a wake-up call and instantly return to Normal Operation.
1. “Timeout” and “Sleep Mode” time delays are programmable features that can be selected through
use of the programming bar codes included in
Chapter 5
