Problem Possible Solution
You pull the trigger, but
nothing happens. The SR61T receives power from either a host or an
external power supply through an accessory cable.
Make sure:
•
You are using the appropriate cable. For more
information, see
“Required Accessories” on
page 5 .
•
The cable is connected to the appropriate port
on the host computer.
•
The universal power supply (if necessary) is
properly plugged in.
You pull the trigger, the
red scanning beam
turns on, but you
cannot successfully scan
a bar code. Try these possible solutions:
•
Make sure that the SR61T is configured for the
symbology you are scanning.
•
Make sure that the SR61T is at the appropriate
scanning distance from the bar code. Move the
SR61T closer and farther away to find the
appropriate distance.
•
Make sure that the SR61T is configured for the
type (1D, 2D, etc.) of bar code you are scanning.
•
The bar code you are trying to scan may be
poorly printed or too small. Scan a known good
bar code to make sure that the SR61T is
working properly.
