Maintenance
Repairs
Repairs and/or upgrades are not to be performed on this product. These services are to be
performed only by an authorized service center (see Customer Support on page 110).
Maintenance
Your device 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 Device
Reading performance may degrade if the scanner’s window is not clean. If the window is
visibly dirty, or if the scanner isn’t operating well, clean the window with a soft cloth or lens
tissue dampened with water (or a mild detergent- water solution). If a detergent solution is used,
rinse with a clean lens tissue dampened with water only.
The scanner and base’s housing may also be cleaned the same way.
Caution:
Do not submerge the scanner in water. The scanner’s housing is not watertight.
Do not use abrasive wipes or tissues on the scanner’s window – abrasive wipes may
scratch the window. Never
use solvents (e.g., alcohol or acetone) on the housing or
window – solvents may damage the finish or the window.
Inspecting Cords and Connectors
Inspect the interface cable and connector for wear or other signs of damage. A badly worn
cable or damaged connector may interfere with scanner operation. Contact your distributor for
information about cable replacement. Cable replacement instructions are on page 107.
Replacing Cables
The standard interface cable is attached to the scanner with an 10-pin modular connector.
When properly seated, the connector is held in the scanner’s handle by a flexible retention tab.
The interface cable is designed to be field replaceable.
