Flexible Power Management
If you are experiencing network performance issues, and suspect the scanner is interfering with other devices, you can turn
down the power output of the scanner. This reduces the range between the scanner and a base or an Access Point as shown
in the following illustration:
Scan one of the bar codes below to set the scanner’s power output to Full Power (100%), Medium Power (35%), Medium Low
Power (5%), or Low Power (1%). Default = Full Power.
Note: Setting a Granit scanner to anything lower than Full Power changes it to Class II Bluetooth.
Batch Mode
Batch mode is used to store bar code data when a scanner is out of range of its base or Access Point, or when performing
inventory. The data is transmitted to the base or Access Point once the scanner is back in range or when the records are man-
ually transmitted.
Note: Batch Mode is only supported by the Honeywell Charge and Communication Base (CCB) and Honeywell Access Point
(AP). Batch mode has limitations when using multiple scanners to one base or Access Point. If a cordless system is being
used in “multiple link mode,” where up to 7 scanners are to be connected to one base or Access Point, some accumulated
or batched scans could be lost if scanners are constantly being moved in and out of range.
Automatic Batch Mode stores bar code data when the scanner is out of range of the base or Access Point. The data is auto-
matically transmitted to the base or Access Point once the scanner is back in range. When the scanner’s buffer space is full,
any bar codes scanned generate an error tone. In order to scan bar codes again, the scanner must be moved back into range
of the base or Access Point so data can be transmitted.
Inventory Batch Mode stores bar code data, whether or not you are in range of the base or Access Point. To transmit the
stored data to the base or Access Point, either place the scanner in the base, or scan Transmit Inventory Records (page 3-17).
When the scanner’s buffer space is full, any bar codes scanned generate an error tone. In order to scan bar codes again, the
data must be transmitted to the base or Access Point. Once the data is transmitted, it is cleared in the scanner.
