Single Scanner Operation
There are two link modes to accommodate different applications: Locked Link
Mode and Open Link Mode. Scan the appropriate bar codes included in the
Open Link and Locked Link Mode explanations that follow to switch from one
mode to another.
Default = Locked Link Mode
.
Locked Link Mode - Single Scanner
If you link a scanner to a base using the Locked Link Mode, other scanners are
blocked from being linked if they are inadvertently placed into the base. If you
do place a different scanner into the base, it will charge the scanner, but the
scanner will not be linked.
To use a different scanner, you need to unlink the original scanner by scanning
the Unlink Scanner bar code. (See "Scanner Modes" on page 1-6.)
Open Link Mode - Single Scanner
When newly shipped or defaulted to factory settings, the base and scanner are
not linked. By placing a scanner into the base, they establish a link. Placing a
different scanner into the base establishes a new link and the old scanner is
unlinked. Each time a scanner is placed into the base, it becomes the linked
scanner; the old scanner is unlinked.
Override Locked Scanner
If you need to replace a broken or lost scanner that is linked to a base, scan the
Override Locked Scanner bar code below with a new scanner and place that
scanner in the base. The locked link will be overridden; the broken or lost
scanner’s link with the base will be removed, and the new scanner will be linked.
