1 Setting Up the Scanner Follow the steps below to set up the scanner. 1. Connect the interface cable to the bottom of the scanner. Figure 1-1 Connecting/Disconnecting the Cable 2. Connect the other end of the interface cable to a USB connector on the host device. Figure 1-2 USB Interface Connection 3. Aim the scanner at the barcode and press the trigger.
4. Ensure that the scan line crosses every bar and space of the barcode. Figure 1-4 Correct and Incorrect Scans 5. 2 Do not hold the scanner directly over the barcode. Laser light reflecting directly back into the scanner from the barcode is known as specular reflection. This specular reflection can make decoding difficult. You can tilt the scanner up to 65° forward or back and achieve a successful decode.
2 Using the Scanner Parts of the Scanner Figure 2-1 Scanner Parts (1) LED (2) Scan Window (3) Nose Boot (4) Trigger Scanning Modes The scanner can operate in one of several scanning modes as described below.
Figure 2-2 Trigger Single Mode Trigger Hold Multiple Mode When the trigger is pulled, scanning starts and the product scans until the trigger is released or a programmable duration has elapsed. Reading a label does not disable scanning. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple reads while in this mode. NOTE: See the Programming Guide (PG) for additional programmable features. In this case: Scanning Active Time. Double Read Timeout is also programmed using the PG.
Figure 2-5 Flashing Mode Always On No trigger pull is required to read a barcode. Scanning is continually on. If the trigger is pulled, the reader acts as if it is in Trigger Single Mode. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple reads while in this mode. NOTE: Double Read Timeout is programmed using the PG. Figure 2-6 Always On Stand Mode No trigger pull is required to read a barcode. Scanning is turned on automatically when an item is placed in reader’s field of view.
Programming Barcodes For your convenience, this guide includes the programming barcodes required to configure the scanner for use with different interface (terminal/host) types. Refer to the Programming Guide (PG) at http://www.hp.com/support for more complete information about programming and configurable features.
LED and Beeper Indications The scanner’s beeper sounds and its LED illuminates to indicate various functions or errors on the reader. A “Green Spot” also lights to indicate a good read. The tables below list these indications. One exception to the behaviors listed in the tables is that the reader’s functions are programmable, and may or may not be turned on. For example, certain indications, such as the power-up beep can be disabled using programming barcode labels. Refer to the PG for a more detailed list.
A Troubleshooting Solving Common Problems The following table lists possible problems, causes, and recommended solutions. Problem Possible Cause Possible Solution Nothing happens when the scan button is pulled. No power to the scanner. Check system power. Ensure power supply is connected. Interface or power cables are loose. Ensure all cable connections are secure. Scanner not programmed for correct barcode type. Ensure scanner is programmed to read the type of barcode scanned.
