Buttons on the interrogator's housing
There are two yellow buttons on the interrogator´s housing in the LED area (see
chapter 4.2.1 Device view RFH620 (standard version), page 20
). You can call up predefi-
ned functions via these buttons.
After changing to the button operating mode, you can select any one function by repeatedly
pressing the step button (
b
) respectively. The selected function is then activated and deac-
tivated with the enter button (
p
) respectively.
The selected function is shown via the corresponding LED below the buttons.
The functions "TeachIn", "Antenna", "Sync" und "Userdef." cannot be called up at the mo-
ment.
When using both of buttons, the display of the LEDs have different meanings other than in normal reading operation:

Use of the buttons
In order to use one of the possible function with the buttons, do as follows:
1. Press the enter button (
p
) for approx. 3 seconds.
The interrogator stops the current reading operation, switches off the LEDs and
changes to the button operating mode. The bar code scanner ignores all the other ex-
ternal reading pulses with immediate effect. No reading results are displayed via the
host interface.
The beeper confirms this process with an ascending melody.
The "Read Diagn" function is pre-selected as first function (LED flashes slowly).
2. Press the enter button (
p
) once to start the selected function.
The LED flashes faster and the beeper confirms the start with two sounds.
3. Press the enter button (
p
) again to stop the selected function.
The LED flashes more slowly again and the beeper confirms the end with two sounds.
4. In order to return from the button operating mode to the reading operation, press the
enter button (
p
) again for approx. 3 seconds.
The beeper confirms the change with a descending melody.
The LED "Ready" lights up again.
The interrogator is ready for reading again and waits for a reading pulse.
