Operation and
Maintenance
The information contained in this chapter describes how to operate and
maintain the scanner, scale and EAS system. Topics include “how to’s” on
scanning, EAS tag deactivation, weighing, re-zeroing the scale, removing
the top cover and cleaning the upper and lower windows.
Scanning Items
To scan items using the scanner, slide or push them through the scan zone
as shown in
Figure 3-1 . The scanner will work equally well with either a
left-to-right or right-to-left motion through the scan zone. There is rarely
a need to reorient an item’s bar code since the scanner can “see” the left,
right, front and back side, as well as the top and bottom of an item.
NOTE
“Limited Scanning Mode” is entered by default by interfaces such as USB
and IBM until a Point Of Sale (POS) terminal enables scanning. Labels are
“chirped” while in this mode.
