It does, however, offer a list of considerations that may be helpful in ensuring greater safety and productivity.
  • Page 31: Checkstand Design

    Checkstand Design 1. Select a design which allows load-sharing by several muscle groups (for example designs which allow the cashier to use both hands for scanning and bagging). 2. Select checkstands which deliver products to the cashier on an input belt and do not require the unloading of items from a cart. These designs put less stress on the cashiers’...
  • Page 32: Scanner Installation

    Scanner Installation 1. Mount the horizontal surface of the scanner flush with the coun- tertop to encourage slide scanning rather than lifting. 2. Position the centerline of the scanner read area 8 - 10 inches (20.3 - 25.4 cm) from the edge of the checkstand (cashier side). Scanner Maintenance 1.
  • Page 33: Site Preparation Overview

    Since the scanner reads labels on all four sides plus the bot- tom, there is no need to turn a bar code toward either of the scanner windows. Develop efficient scanning motions, not necessarily faster hand movements. Simply slide the item across the scanner’s horizontal window with as little orientation motion as neces- sary.
  • Page 34 Counter Preparation. Since the majority of grocery checkout lanes are designed as “left-hand take away,” the counter drawings in this section focus on this counter design. Simply reverse the layout for a “right-hand take away” requirement. The unit scans equally well in either of these two configurations.
  • Page 35: Ventilation And Spacing

    Figure 2-2. Vertical Clearance DO NOT DO NOT Obstruct Obstruct L-Platter Scan Zone Removal (Keyboard Mount) Allow a minimum clearance of 1.5" (3.8cm) (Enclosure) Ventilation and Spacing The scanning-scale’s perimeter housing has been designed to provide ade- quate space for convective cooling and unrestricted movement of the weighing apparatus.
  • Page 36: Service Access

    If motors, conveyor belts, or other heat producing equipment are located near the scanner, forced air ventilation may be required. In most installa- tions, a 30 cfm (.84 cmm) axial fan should provide sufficient air move- ment. If a ventilation fan is installed, one with a removable filter that may be washed or replaced is recommended.
  • Page 37: Power Installation

    Power Installation Reference the wiring diagram in Figure 2-4 for the recommended fusing arrangement. Grounding The AC/DC Power Supply should have an AC outlet with a clean earth ground. If you are not sure how to verify the amount of electrical noise (interference) on the power line, ask a qualified electrician to measure the input line voltage.
  • Page 38: Checkstand Preparation

    Checkstand Preparation Reference Figure 2-5. When performing a first time installation into a new checkstand, verify before cutting that room will be allowed for cabling and the AC/DC Power Supply. When making the opening, take extra care to accurately cut to the correct dimensions. Mounting may require installation of support(s), countertop routing, or other such devices.
  • Page 39: Counter Cutout

    Counter Cutout The most important consideration when planning the counter opening for the scanner is the operator’s comfortable reaching distance. The ideal, ergonomically sound installation allows items to be directed within easy reach, and a scanning area requiring no lifting or special orientation of items.
  • Page 40 Cables should be easy to remove in the event that replace- ment is required. A little planning now will save a lot of frus- tration later. 4. Connect and verify all system operations. The scanner should be installed so that leading and trailing edges of the All Weighs™...

  • Page 45: Checkstand Mounting

    Checkstand Mounting There are a number of things to take into account when installing the unit into a checkstand. Key factors are ergonomic/worker safety, loading capac- ity and stability. Consider the scanner or scanning-scale’s weight when cal- culating the robustness of construction needed to support it as well as maximum capacity of weighed and scanned items.
  • Page 46 • Lift out the accessory box containing the AC/DC Power Supply, optional Remote Scale Display and cable (if present), and the Quick Reference Guide. • Remove the Quick Reference Guide and familiarize yourself with the unit’s controls and features. Leave the guide at the checkstand when the installation is complete.
  • Page 47: Operational Verification

    Operational Verification Follow these steps to ensure that your unit has arrived undamaged and is fully functional before installing it in the counter and connecting it to your POS system. 1. If the unit is a scanning-scale, connect the Remote Scale Display to the proper connector on the unit’s connector panel (refer to Figure 2-17).
  • Page 48 4. Verify that the scanner or scanning-scale passes an operational test by observing the following: Scanner. Pass UPC/EAN bar code labels in front of the scanner’s win- dows. Since the interface cable is not yet connected to the POS terminal, the scanner may be limited to reading only one or two labels (see the note that follows).
  • Page 49: Diagnostic Modes

    Diagnostic Modes Two diagnostic modes are available which allow you to initiate scanner or scale diagnostic tests, as well as verify the scanner’s ability to read bar codes. Scanner Diagnostic Mode While in Scanner Diagnostic Mode, continuous scanning of labels is allowed, permitting the user to scan an unlimited number of bar codes while troubleshooting problems.
  • Page 50: Scale Diagnostic Mode

    Scale Diagnostic Mode To enter Scale Diagnostic Mode, press the Scale Zero Push Button for approximately four seconds. Six rapid tones will be sounded, indicating the unit is leaving normal operation and entering Scale Diagnostic Mode. The Remote Display will flash a ‘1’ across the display while the dignostic routine is being run.
  • Page 51 Do not plug the AC power cord into the outlet at this time. It is a good practice to always connect the power cable to the scanner first before plug- ging it into the AC receptacle. The procedures titled, Set-Up, provided later in this section will instruct you to connect the power cord at that time.
  • Page 52: Remote Scale Display Placement/Installation

    Figure 2-12 provides physical dimensions for the AC/DC Adapter (part number 8-0582). Figure 2-12. Maximum Physical Measurements: AC/DC Adapter 2.3" (5.8 cm) Remote Scale Display Placement/Installation When installing the optional Remote Scale Display, consider both the cus- tomer’s viewing angle and the amount of daily ambient light conditions anticipated at this installation site.
  • Page 53: Viewing Angle

    Viewing Angle The optimum viewing angle is directly facing the customer. To ensure that the display is easily readable for the majority of your customers, the dis- play should be approximately 48 to 60” (122 to 152 cm) from the floor. Check with local Weights and Measures authorities regarding proper posi- tioning of scale displays used in retail trade.
  • Page 54: Placing And Installing The Remote Scale Display

    The connector at the Remote Scale Display end is secured with a rubber band during shipping to prevent damage to the “locking tabs” (see Figure 2-15). After routing the cable, remove this rubber band before the cable end connecting to the Remote Scale Display head. Failure to remove the band will keep the connector from latching properly when it is connected NOTE to Remote Scale Display port.

  • Page 65: Proper Weighing Technique

    Proper Weighing Technique 1. The L-shaped All-Weighs™ platter allows you to place items anywhere on its surface, including leaning against its vertical sec- tion, to be weighed accurately. (Reference Figure 3-2.) It is important that items rest entirely on the platter for their full weight to be accurately recorded.
  • Page 66: Operational Controls

    Operational Controls The function of scanner and scale controls and indicators is listed in Appendix A, LED/Beeper Indications & Controls. Turn to that appendix for full details. Operational Modes The scanner or scanner/scale features a number of modes that are impor- tant to both the user and the system support personnel.
  • Page 67: Error Reporting

    Error Reporting If a fatal error is detected during Selftest or operation, the unit will not advance to Normal Operation Mode. Selftest diagnostics will cause the unit to sound a long, low tone and/or display an error message on the 7- segment display (see Figure 4-1) indicating where the failure occurred.
  • Page 68: Operating Mode

    • When the scanner or scanner/scale completes its Selftest success- fully, it emits a power-up tone (when configured to do so) and enters Operating Mode. Operating Mode Operating Mode includes Normal Operation (scanning and weighing) and Sleep Mode. These two modes are most commonly observed by the user/operator.
  • Page 69: Additional Functions

    Additional Functions Additional scanner and scale functions include programming, running scanner or scale diagnostics, initiating a reset, zeroing the scale, and cali- brating the scale. Programming When your scanner or scanner/scale is shipped from the factory it is con- figured to work with the POS system interface at your store and read the bar code symbologies you designated.
  • Page 70: Scale Adjustments

    Scale Adjustments The scale allows two user adjustments: zeroing and calibration. The first, and most frequently performed, is ‘zeroing’ the scale. This operation resets the scale’s “at rest” reading to zero which must be within the range of - 0.2 pounds (- 1.25 grams) to +0.6 pounds (0.27kg) since the last calibration.
  • Page 71 Normally, once the scale has been calibrated, the calibration must be veri- fied and/or approved by a local regulatory body. In many areas of the United States, the scale calibration switch must be sealed before being placed into service. Consult the agency responsible for regulating weigh- ing devices in your area to ensure that you are meeting all legal and regula- tory requirements.
  • Page 72: Operational Maintenance

    Operational Maintenance The scanner or scanner/scale will provide dependable service for many years. The following maintenance procedures will keep your scanner or scanner/scale operating at peak performance. Cleaning the Weigh Platter and Scan Windows Clean the exterior sur- faces of the horizontal and vertical scan windows at least twice daily with a nonabrasive, mild, water-based glass cleaner and paper towels or lint-free cleaning tissues.

  • Page 109: Introduction To Label Programming

    Section 6 Programming Introduction to Label Programming The programming bar code labels contained in this manual will allow you to customize and configure features and settings for your scanner (scan- ner/scale). To ensure full compatibility and proper function, use only the programming bar codes in this manual and other product-specific publi- cations to program scanner features.
  • Page 110: Customizing Your Scanner's Operation

    Once you know the scanner’s current settings, you can determine what changes will be required to allow communication with your host system and/or optional features you choose to modify to customize your installa- tion. After recording the modifications needed, finish reading this section, then turn to the appropriate page and follow the instructions to program the scanner.
  • Page 111: Programming Overview

    The scanner can also accept programming via its auxilliary port using a handheld scanning device. Eligible handheld devices must have the ability to transmit Code 128 function codes such as the programming bar codes ® presented in this manual. Datalogic models QuickScan 1000 and Quick- ® Scan 6000 support this functionality.
  • Page 112: What Is Programming Mode

    What Is Programming Mode? Programming Mode is a state in which the scanner must be placed in order to accept commands via programming bar code labels. When pro- gramming using the bar code labels in this manual, the scanner is typically placed in Programming Mode by scanning the SWITCH label.
  • Page 113: Programming Session

    Programming Session A typical programming session is conducted as follows: 1. Scan the SWITCH bar code to place the scanner in Programming Mode. Depending upon its current programming, the scanner may emit a beep or beeps, indicating it has read the bar code and the green LED will flash on and off slowly while the scanner remains in Programming Mode.
  • Page 114 It is recommended that programming sessions be limited to one feature at a time. Should you make a mistake in the programming sequence, it can be difficult to discover where an error has been made if several fea- tures are programmed at once. Additionally, it can be confusing to deter- mine which features may or may not have been successfully set following NOTE such a session.
  • Page 115: Programming Sequence

    Programming Sequence To modify a scanner feature (item), the programming bar codes contained in this manual must be scanned in a given sequence depending upon the feature being programmed (as shown in Table 6-1). There are three possi- ble programming sequences: If the scanner’s interface type must be changed, always be sure that inter- face configuration is the FIRST item scanned during a programming ses- sion.
