NDICATOR LAMP
The indicator lamp has six active levels; off, on dim, flash once,
flashing continually once per second, flashing continually twice per
second and repeating a series of flashes.
Off indicates that either there is no power to the scanner or
the scanner is not operational.
On dim shows that the scanner is on and ready for opera-
tion. This is the normal operating condition.
Flashes once brightly when the scanner has read a barcode
label this is usually accompanied by a good read tone
from the speaker.
Flashing once per second indicates the scanner has automati-
cally shut-down due to a prolonged period of inactivity.
This condition is referred to as "Sleep Mode" which
extends the life of scanner components by removing
power from the laser diode and motor when the scanner
is not in use. The length of time that the scanner waits
before going into Sleep Mode can be changed using the
programming labels contained in the Programming
Guide (R44-1140).
Flashing twice a second indicates that the scanner is in
Programming Mode. The scanner will not read regular
barcode labels or send data to the host when in this
mode.
Flashes repeatedly accompanied by a repeated series of
tones indicates a failure has occurred. An interruption
to communications or power as well as scanner or
terminal failure can cause this condition.
