Indicator LED
The indicator LED lights or flashes in blue, green, red or orange to indicate the scanner status as described below.
Lights in blue when:
• a read of a bar code is successfully complete (Note that when the auto sensing mode switching function* is enabled,
the indicator LED lights in green.),
• the "Start setting" or "End setting" bar code symbol is read from the bar-coded parameter menu (given in Chapter
12),
• bar code data read matches the master data in the data verification mode,
• the auto sensing mode switching function* has switched the scanner to the currently selected trigger switch
operating mode, or
• switched to the trigger switch operating mode using the continuous reading mode switching function.
Lights in green when:
• a processing started by magic key control has completed,
• the scanner is ready to register master data in the data verification mode, or
• the scanner has read a bar code (except a master bar code for data verification) successfully with the auto sensing
mode switching function* being enabled.
Lights in red when:
• a check digit error has occurred,
• a bar code read has the wrong number of digits,
• bar code data read does not match the master data in the data verification mode,
• a master bar code read has the wrong number of digits in registration of master data,
• the data retransfer function failed to transfer data, or
• an editing error has occurred in the specified data editing, resulting in no transfer.
Flashes red when:
• no master data has been registered in the data verification mode.
Lights in orange when:
• the auto sensing mode switching function* has switched the scanner to the auto sensing mode, or
• switched to the continuous reading mode using the continuous reading mode switching function.
The indicator LED can be disabled with the bar-coded parameter menu or configuration software (ScannerSetting). In
any of the following cases, however, the indicator LED comes on regardless of the current LED setting:
- When the scanner is being customized with the bar-coded parameter menu (Chapter 12).
- When the configuration software (ScannerSetting) starts up or accepts any new setting.
- When a batch-process bar code symbol is read.
- When a master bar code is being registered or the registration is complete.
- When any error has occurred during entry of a master bar code.
- When the verification result is a mismatch, the scanner is locked, or no master data has been registered in the data
verification mode.
- When data retransfer with the magic key is complete or the previously sent data is not available at the time of data
retransfer.
- When specific character transfer with the magic key is complete.
- When a hardware error has occurred.
- When the scanner has failed to save setting.
*For the auto sensing mode switching function assigned to the magic key, refer to Chapter 6.
