Linking Image Scanner To Base; Communication Between The Cordless System And The Host - Honeywell 2020 User Manual

Linking Image Scanner to Base

When newly shipped or defaulted to factory settings, the base and image
scanner are not linked. Once the image scanner is placed into the base, the
software automatically links the image scanner and the base. If the image
scanner and base have previously been linked, you do not receive any feedback.
If this is the first time that the image scanner and base are linked, both devices
emit a short chirp when their radios link. At this point, you are set to one image
scanner to one base.

3. To determine if your cordless system is set up correctly, scan one of the
sample barcodes in the back of this manual. If the image scanner provides
a single good read beep and the green LED lights, the image scanner has
successfully linked to the base. If you receive a triple error beep and the red
LED lights, the image scanner has not linked to the base. Refer to
for troubleshooting information.
Communication Between the Cordless System
and the Host
The cordless image scanner provides immediate feedback in the form of a "good
read" indication (a green LED on the image scanner and an audible beep) after
a barcode is scanned correctly and the base has acknowledged receiving the
data. This is possible since the cordless system provides two-way
communication between the image scanner and the base.
