Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Maintenance
The cordless scanning system provides reliable and efficient operation with a
minimum of care. Although specific maintenance is not required, the following
periodic checks ensure dependable operation:
Cleaning the Scan Window of the Cordless Scanner
Scanning performance may degrade if the cordless scanner’s scan window is not
clean. If the window is visibly dirty, or if the scanner isn’t scanning well, clean the
scan window with a soft cloth or facial tissue dampened with water (or a mild
detergent-water solution). If a detergent solution is used, rinse with a clean tissue
dampened with water only.
The cordless scanner and base housings may also be cleaned the same way.
Inspecting Cords and Connectors
Inspect the cordless base’s interface cable and connector for wear or other signs
of damage. A badly worn cable or damaged connector may interfere with
operation. Contact your Hand Held Products distributor for information about
cable replacement. Cable replacement instructions are on page 10-2.
Examining the Cordless Scanner and Cordless Base
Housings
Routinely examine the cordless scanner and cordless base housings for signs of
damage. A damaged housing may cause the internal components to move and
may result in a malfunctioning unit.
Warning:
Do not submerge the cordless scanner or the cordless base in
water. Their housings are not water-tight.
Do not use abrasive wipers or tissues on the scan window: abrasive
wipers may scratch the window.
Never use solvents (alcohol or acetone) on the housings or the window:
solvents may damage the finish or the window.
Do not open the cordless scanner or the cordless base. There are no
serviceable parts inside.
