NOTE
3. Verify that the scanner or scanner-scale passes an operational test by
observing the following:
Scanner —
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). The scanner indicates when each label has been successfully read
by flashing the green scanner light and emitting a good read tone (beep).
EAS System —
way the scanner is currently programmed with regard to EAS Mode. (See
"EAS Mode" on page 149.) To test EAS system function:
• Coupled Mode — Pass an item containing both a bar code and an active
EAS tag over the scanner. Successful deactivation is indicated by the bot-
tom-most LED flashing first red, then orange, then returning to green. The
beeper will sound a good read beep.
If you have enabled the manual deactivation function available for Coupled
Mode (see "Manual EAS Deactivation Push Button" on page -54), test the
function by pressing the bottom push button. A ticking sound will be
heard which should cease upon deactivating an EAS tag.
• Decoupled Mode — In this mode, items do not require a bar code to be
scanned to arm the deactivation function. Simply pass an active EAS tag
over the scanner in the same direction you would scan a bar code. The
bottom-most LED will flash red to indicate deactivation. No beep is
sounded to indicate deactivation in this mode.
• Hybrid Mode — In Hybrid Mode, the scanner must be enabled, however
EAS deactivation in this mode also takes place without needing to scan an
item's bar code. Pass an active EAS tag over the scanner in the same direc-
tion you would scan a bar code. The bottom-most LED will flash red, then
orange, then return to green. The beeper may be configured to sound a
high frequency beep to announce successful deactivation.
Scale —
ton momentarily. If the scale is operating correctly, the yellow LED will illu-
minate and remain on steady, and the display will show a reading of 0.00
lb (0.000 kg for metric). If the display is blank or a
may be necessary to calibrate the scale before continuing. Refer to
brating the Scale (Pounds & Kilograms)"

warmer environment (such as a checkstand location), a period of 60
minutes must be allowed to acclimate the unit to ambient conditions.
Once installed and powered up, a "powerup" warm-up period of 15
minutes must occur before calibrating or performing weighing opera-
tions. These two warm-up periods may run concurrently.
Pass UPC/EAN bar code labels in front of the scanner's windows.
