The table below defines beep sequences that occur during both normal scanning and while programming the scanner. Beeper Sequence Indication Standard Use Low/medium/high beeps Power up. High beep A bar code symbol was decoded (if decode beeper is enabled). Four long low beeps A transmission error was detected in a scanned symbol.
Symbol LS4278 Beeper Sequence Indication High/low beeps Bluetooth disconnection event. Long low/long high beeps Page timeout; remote device is out of range/not powered. Long low/long high/long low/long high beeps Connection attempt was rejected by remote device. Code 39 Buffering High/low beeps New Code 39 data was entered into the buffer. Three long high beep Code 39 buffer is full.
Quick Reference Guide 7 Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause Possible Solutions LED indicates a battery temperature fault. Battery is above or below normal operating temperature. Do not use the scanner. Move the scanner to a location within normal operating temperature. The scanner can remain in the cradle while the battery warms or cools to normal operating temperature. Refer to the Product Reference Guide for more information. Nothing happens when the trigger is pulled. No power to the scanner.
Symbol LS4278 Programming Bar Codes Following are some frequently used programming bar codes. NOTE For additional host types, refer to the Symbol LS4278 Product Reference Guide, p/n 72E-69834-xx, available on the Symbol LS4278 CD, or on the website: http://www.motorola.com/enterprisemobility/manuals. Set Defaults Scan SET DEFAULTS to set all parameters to their default values. SET DEFAULTS Scanning Modes Scan the appropriate bar code below to determine the scanning pattern.
Quick Reference Guide 9 Host Types If a Synapse cable is used (i.e., part number STIxx-xxxx), the scanner autodetects the Synapse cable and there is no need to scan bar codes to enable the Synapse host. If a USB interface is used, the scanner autodetects the USB and defaults to the HID keyboard interface. See page 12 to select the IBM hand-held host type. If a Keyboard Wedge, RS-232, Wand Emulation, Scanner Emulation, or IBM 46XX is used, the appropriate host type must be scanned.

Quick Reference Guide 13 Radio Communications Host Types Scan a bar code below to choose how the scanner connects to a remote device. Scan Cradle Host if connecting to the Symbol STB4278 cradle. CRADLE HOST SERIAL PORT PROFILE (MASTER) SERIAL PORT PROFILE (SLAVE) BLUETOOTH KEYBOARD EMULATION (HID SLAVE) Pairing When the scanner is configured as an SPP or HID Master, a 'pairing bar code' must be created for the remote Bluetooth device to which the scanner can connect.
Symbol LS4278 NOTE If three scanners are actively connected to the cradle (Multipoint-to-Point mode), a fourth scanner cannot connect regardless of the pairing mode. UNLOCKED PAIRING MODE (Default) LOCKED PAIRING MODE Pairing Methods There are two pairing methods. The default method pairs (connects) the scanner and cradle when the pairing bar code on the cradle is scanned. A second method pairs the scanner and cradle when the scanner is inserted in the cradle.
