SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Be sure to observe all these safety precautions. Strict observance of these warning and caution indications are a MUST for preventing accidents which could result in bodily injury and substantial prop- erty damage. Make sure you fully understand all definitions of these terms and related symbols given below, before you proceed on to the text itself.

Handling the BHT • The BHT-7500W uses a laser light for scanning bar codes. The intensity of the laser light might be too low to inflict bodily in- jury. However, do not look into the laser beam.
Page 5
• Do not look into the laser beam through the reading window or point the laser beam towards the eyes. The laser beam emitted through the reading window is harmful to the eyes. • Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Page 6
CAUTION • Never disassemble or modify the BHT; doing so could result in an accident such as break or fire. Never disassemble • If smoke, abnormal odors or noises come from the BHT, imme- diately turn off the power, pull out the rechargeable battery car- tridge, and contact your nearest dealer.
Components and Functions Indicator LED Illuminates in green when the BHT has successfully read the bar code. Trigger switch (M4 key)* Press this switch to start bar-code reading. Alphanumeric keys Liquid crystal display (LCD) Shows the characters and graphic patterns. Trigger switch (M3 key)* Press this switch to start bar-code reading.

The functions of the keys may be set by user programs. Shown below is a set of sample functions. ALP (Alphabet) key Switches the keypad to C (Clear) key alphabet entry. Clears the last inputted data or returns to the SF (Shift) key original screen.
About Status Indicators Battery voltage level Shows the current battery voltage level. If the voltage level is high, three bars ap- pear; if low, a single bar appears. The displayed battery level shows the terminal voltage of the battery cartridge, not how much power is left.
Reading Bar Codes Turn on the BHT power, bring the bar-code reading window to the bar code to be scanned, and press the trigger switch. The BHT emits a laser light to scan the bar code. When the BHT has read the bar code successfully, the indicator LED will illu- minate in green.

• Before reading bar codes, clean those labels if stained. • Avoid using the BHT in direct sunlight. The BHT might fail to read correctly. • To read bar codes on curved surfaces, apply the BHT to the target bar code so that the code comes to the center of the scanning range indicated by the laser beam.

Using Radio Link • If there are too many communications errors, first make sure that the BHT points directly at an access point because the 2.4-GHz band requires a more or less straight line path. Note also that the low-power radio waves have trouble passing through human bodies and other obstacles along that path.
Using Infrared Link CU-7000 Make sure that the BHT is securely in the CU-7000. Shield the IrDA interface from direct sunlight, intense overhead lighting (inverter-driven fluorescent lighting, in particular), and other potential sources of infrared radiation. Sources to watch out for include remote control units for television sets and the like.
Adjusting the LCD Contrast & Beeper Volume and Switching the Beeper & Vibrator While holding down the M1 or M4 key, press the PW key, and any of the following screens will appear on the LCD. This screen will disappear if no keys are pressed for five seconds.

Loading the Rechargeable Battery Cartridge Before the first use of the BHT, be sure to load the rechargeable battery car- tridge as shown below. The battery cartridge is not loaded in the BHT when shipped from the factory. (1) Charge the rechargeable battery cartridge. (2) Turn the BHT upside down.
Page 18
Display message in turning off the BHT The following alarm message will be displayed when you turn the BHT off. While this message is displayed, do not remove the rechargeable battery car- tridge or dry battery cartridge. Shutdown in progress. Do not remove the battery.
Battery Replacement Notes When is battery replacement needed? If the “Charge the battery!” appears on the LCD, replace the rechargeable bat- tery cartridge with a fully charged one. If you leave the BHT without replacing the battery cartridge, the integrated cal- endar clock or data will no longer be backed up so that the calendar clock will stop or the “Contact your administrator.
Page 20
(2) When powering on the BHT after storage with no battery cartridge loaded: Even after removal of the rechargeable battery cartridge, the calendar clock will work with the backup power source for a while. If the calendar clock backup has stopped, loading the battery cartridge and powering on the BHT will display the following message, prompting you to set the current date and time.
Error Messages If some error occurs when the power is turned on or during program execution, one of the following error messages will appear on the LCD.
