Chapter 5 — Troubleshooting and Maintaining the SR61T
To keep your SR61T in good working order, you may need to upgrade
the SR61T firmware and clean the scanner window.
You may need to upgrade the SR61T firmware if there is an update
that incorporates changes to a feature or adds functionality to the
scanner. When you upgrade your scanner the current settings are
erased and replaced with the default settings. The process of
upgrading the SR61T takes about 10 minutes to complete.
To upgrade the SR61T you need:
•
An RS-232, USB, or download cable. For more information on
