1662 L/1664 Barcode Scanner User Guide 1.1.1 HOW TO OPERATE THE SCANNER Turn on the scanner… Press the [Power/Delete] key for 2 seconds. The scanner will respond with a long beep (high tone), and its LED indicator will become solid red and go off. Turn off the scanner… Press the [Power/Delete] key for 2 seconds. The scanner will respond with two short beeps (high tone) and the LED will become solid red. Release the key then. Otherwise, let the scanner turn off automatically in specific circumstances.
Chapter 1 Understanding the Barcode Scanner 1.1.2 AUTO POWER OFF & POWER-SAVING The scanner will stay active at power-on, which may be followed by a transition from full CPU speed to low CPU speed (Power-Saving) to auto shutdown (Auto Power Off). Power-Saving (1~254 min.; 0= Disable): By default, it is set to stand by at full-speed for 2 minutes before it enters low-speed mode. If this feature is not desired, set it to 0. Auto Power Off (1~254 min.
1662 L/1664 Barcode Scanner User Guide After establishing a WPAN connection successfully… 1) Once a WPAN connection is established successfully, the scanner will stay active for a specified period of time (2 minutes by default) for data transmission. Its CPU is running at full speed, and the LED is flashing blue (On/Off ratio 0.02 s: 3 s). 2) If it is idle within 2 minutes, the scanner will become inactive to save power for the remaining period of time (the specified value minus 2 minutes).

Chapter 1 Understanding the Barcode Scanner 1.10 READ REDUNDANCY FOR ALL SYMBLOGIES Select the level of reading security. For example, If "No Redundancy" is selected, one successful decoding will make the reading valid and induce the "READER Event". If "Three Times" is selected, it will take a total of four consecutive successful decoding of the same barcode to make the reading valid.
1662 L/1664 Barcode Scanner User Guide 1.11 ADDON SECURITY FOR UPC/EAN BARCODES The scanner is capable of decoding a mix of UPC/EAN barcodes with and without addons. The read redundancy (0~30 times) allows changing the number of times to decode a UPC/EAN barcode before transmission. The more redundancy selected, the higher the reading security is, and thus, the slower the reading speed becomes. Note: UPC/EAN Addon 2 and Addon 5 must be enabled individually for this setting to take effect.
