  • Page 10: Installation

    Refer to Figure 1 and follow these steps to install the scanner: Consult your host terminal manual to determine if power must be turned off before connecting peripheral devices such as the scanner. Should you need to disconnect the interface (I/F) cable from the scanner, loosen the Phillips head screw at the bottom of the handle and rotate the cable restraint clip away from the cable to release it.

  • Page 12: How To Scan

    Figure 2 illustrates some tips to help get the best scanning results: The scanner must be pointed at a slight angle to the bar code. Do not hold the scanner perpendicular to the bar code. The laser beam must cross the entire bar code. The scanner cannot correctly read if the entire bar code is not scanned.
  • Page 13: Scanning Range

    Scanning Range There are currently four different model types for this scanner. Depending upon the model type of your scanner, you’ll need to hold the unit at a given distance from the bar code to achieve optimum scanning results. The following diagrams provide range of field infor- mation for each of the models when scanning grade A, Code 39 bar codes: Standard Range (SR), High Density (HD), Long Range (LR) and Extra Long Range (XLR).
  • Page 14 In the context of the illustration below, a "mil" repre- sents the minimum bar code element width. Mea- surements are based on HD models set with the standard 28° scan width (as opposed to the Half Angle setting of 14°). Reference the PowerScan Pro- gramming Manual for more information about the NOTE Half Angle feature.
  • Page 15 In the context of the illustration below, a "mil" repre- sents the minimum bar code element width. Mea- surements are based on LR models set with the a 14° scan width (as opposed to the alternate Full Angle setting of 28°). Reference the PowerScan Pro- gramming Manual for more information about the NOTE Half Angle feature.

  • Page 17: Active Symbologies

    Active Symbologies The active (enabled) bar code symbologies in the factory defaults are: • Code 39 (C39) • Code 128 (C128) • Interleaved 2 of 5 (I 2 of 5) Your scanner should be pre-programmed with these standard factory default settings, unless..it was shipped to you programmed with unique, customer con- figuration settings.
  • Page 18: Test Your Scanner

    The bar code below (Figure 7) is provided to test your scanner’s abil- ity to read a typical Code 39 label. Figure 7. Code 39 Bar Code Sample Figure 8 above shows label placement ONLY. For actual regulatory, patent and other applicable infor- mation, view the labels on the product itself, or call your nearest sales or service representative.
  • Page 19: Laser Cautions

    The PowerScan bar code scanner is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS/CDRH 21CFR Subchapter J for Class II laser products (SR and LR) and Class IIIa (XLR). Class II and IIIa products are not considered to be hazardous. The scanner contains a Visible Laser Diode (VLD) at a wavelength of 650-670 nanometers and is designed so that there can be no human access to harmful levels of laser light during normal operation, user maintenance, or during pre-...
  • Page 20: Troubleshooting

    You can isolate problems with your scanning system by performing these checks (refer to Figure 9): If your scanner’s cable is designed to receive Power Off the Terminal (P.O.T.), it will not operate unless it is connected to a working host terminal that is powered on. Ensure that the interface cable is securely attached to the host.
