Figure 2. Caution and Serial Labels Caution: To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits connected to the scanner must meet the requirements for SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) according to EN/IEC 60950-1. To maintain compliance with standard CSA C22.2 No. 60950-1/UL 60950-1 and norm EN/IEC 60950-1, the power source should meet applicable performance requirements for a limited power source.
When cleaning the window, spray the cleaner onto a lint free, non- abrasive cleaning cloth then gently wipe the window clean. If the unit's case requires cleaning, use a mild cleaning agent that does not contain strong oxidizing chemicals. Strong cleaning agents may discolor or damage the unit's exterior.
When the scanner first receives power the white LED will flash, one blue LED will turn on and the scanner will emit one beep. Plugging the scanner into the serial port of the PC does not guarantee that scanned information will appear at the PC. A software driver and correct configuration setting are also required for proper communication to occur.
