Communication Errors

Scanning Transmission Range

A communication error will occur when the scanner, cradle or host fails to properly
communicate. When a communication error occurs while using the default application, the
scanner emits 4 beeps (LO HI LO HI) and displays a "Failed Communication" error
message.
The three-digit error code on the scanner's screen indicates what type of communication
problem has occurred. For example, error code 015 generally indicates the scanner is out
of RF range, is not properly paired with the base, or the base may have lost power. For a
complete list of error codes, see
