Introduction The RS419 ring scanner is a modular, wearable laser scanner that allows the operator hands-free bar code scanning capability. The scanner is used with the WT4090 and WT41N0 wearable terminal. The RS419 is worn on the operator’s index finger, and utilizes a thumb-operated trigger. The RS419 connects via an interface cable to the wearable terminal, which provides power and performs the data collection functions.
Changing Trigger Position The trigger assembly of the RS419 rotates to provide left-hand or right-hand use. 1. Determine whether the RS419 is used on the right or left hand. CAUTION The trigger assembly only rotates 180° around the back of the scan assembly. Do not rotate the trigger assembly past the designed stops. 2. Rotate the trigger assembly so that the scan trigger is positioned next to the thumb when the RS419 is placed on the index finger.
Interface Connector Scanner Cable Connector 3. Slide the RS419 onto the index finger with the scan trigger next to the thumb. 4. Tighten the finger strap.
5. If required, cut excess finger strap material. 6. Warm boot the wearable terminal. Using the Scanner Not to be used in condensing environments. To scan bar codes: 1. Turn on the wearable terminal. 2. Launch a scanning application. 3. Press the scan trigger and aim the RS419 at a bar code. The scan LED lights red to indicate the laser is on. 4. Position the red laser beam so that it covers the entire length of the bar code.
5. If the decode is successful the LED turns green. The terminal beeps if programed accordingly. Scanning Tips • For larger bar codes, hold the RS419 farther away from the bar code. • For bar codes with bars that are closer together, hold the RS419 closer to the bar code. • The optimal scanning distance varies with bar code density, but 10 to 25 cm (4 to 10 inches) generally works. Practice to determine what distances to work within.
Release Tab 2. Slide the finger strap assembly out of the trigger assembly. 3. Align a new finger strap assembly with the slot in the trigger assembly. 4. Push the finger strap assembly into the trigger assembly until the release tab clicks into place. 5. Insert your index finger through the finger strap. Tighten the strap and press the hook and pile together. 6. If required, cut excess finger strap material.
Replacing the Trigger Assembly To replace the trigger assembly: 1. Remove the finger strap assembly. 2. Turn the RS419 upside-down. 3. Remove the set screw with screwdriver. 4. Turn the trigger assembly counter-clockwise until the exit window and scan trigger align. 5. Lift the trigger assembly off the scan assembly. 6. Align replacement trigger assembly with scan assembly. 7. Rotate trigger assembly 1/4 turn clockwise. 8. Tighten the set screw with screwdriver. 9. Replace finger strap assembly.
Cleaning CAUTION WARNING! Always wear eye protection. Read warning label on compressed air and alcohol product before using. If you have to use any other solution for medical reasons please contact Zebra for more information. AVOID EXPOSING THIS PRODUCT TO CONTACT WITH HOT OIL OR OTHER FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS. IF SUCH EXPOSURE OCCURS, UNPLUG THE DEVICE AND CLEAN THE PRODUCT IMMEDIATELY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE GUIDELINES.
Cleaning Instructions Do not apply liquid directly to the RS419. Dampen a soft cloth or use pre-moistened wipes. Do not wrap the device in the cloth or wipe, but gently wipe the unit. Be careful not to let liquid pool around the display window or other places. Allow the unit to air dry before use. Special Cleaning Notes Many vinyl gloves contain phthalate additives, which are often not recommended for medical use and are known to be harmful to the housing of the RS419.
Cleaning the RS419 Housing Using the alcohol wipes, wipe the housing. Exit Window Wipe the scanner exit window periodically with a lens tissue or other material suitable for cleaning optical material such as eyeglasses. Connector 1. Disconnect the RS419 from the WT41N0. 2. Dip the cotton portion of the cotton tipped applicator in isopropyl alcohol. 3. Rub the cotton portion of the cotton tipped applicator back-and-forth across the connector. Do not leave any cotton residue on the connector. 4.
CAUTION Do not point nozzle at yourself and others, ensure the nozzle or tube is away from your face. 7. Spray compressed air on the connector area by pointing the tube/nozzle about ½ inch away from the surface. 8. Inspect the area for any grease or dirt, repeat if required. Cleaning Frequency The cleaning frequency is up to the customer’s discretion due to the varied environments in which the mobile devices are used. They may be cleaned as frequently as required.
Troubleshooting Symptom Laser beam does not display when pressing the trigger. RS419 does not decode a bar code. Probable Cause Action Interface cable is not secure. Verify that the interface cable connection is connected properly. Power is not applied to RS419. Power for the RS419 is provided by the wearable terminal. Verify that the wearable terminal has a charged battery installed. Scan enabled application on the wearable terminal is not running.
Symptom Probable Cause Condensation Using the ring scanner in a hot and appears on humid environment after being in a the inside or freezer environment. the outside of the exit window. Action Wipe condensation from exit window with a soft cloth. For condensation on the inside, dedicate ring scanner to freezer or hot and humid environment. Do not pass between environments with the same ring scanner.
