  • Page 17: Understanding The Sr61B Behavior

    Chapter 1 — Introducing the SR61B Cordless Scanner Understanding the SR61B Behavior The SR61B uses lights, beeps and vibrations to indicate if a bar code has been successfully decoded. The lights and beeps described in this section are new and do not correspond to the legacy SR61B models (SR61BV, SR61BA, SR61BL or SR61BE).

  • Page 18: Status Light

    The status light flashes green or red to indicate the status of the scanner and/or battery. Status information is sometimes shown even if the Intermec Ready-to-Work Indicator is on. This way the scanner can communicate more than one type of information at the same time.

    Long-term exposure to the laser beam can damage your vision. The SR61B contains either a 1D linear imager (SR61B1D), 2D area imager (SR61BHP, SR61BDPM), laser scan engine (SR61BL), or near- far range area imager (SR61BXR) to scan bar code data. The type of scan engine you are using and the type of bar code you are decoding determines the way you scan the bar code.
