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.
The scanner or scanner/scale features a number of modes that are
important to both the user and the system support personnel.
These modes can be combined into three groups: pre-operational,
operational, and additional functions. The following text describes
these modes, what they mean, and how and when they are seen.
Pre-Operation describes those steps that must be successfully
completed before the scanner sounds the initial good read tone and
illuminates the lamps indicating the scanner and/or scale are ready
for operation. These steps include Power-Up Selftest, Error Report-
ing, and Operational Configuration.
Power-Up/Selftest
Power-Up Selftest begins when power is applied. The scanner's
software immediately begins the testing sequence to verify that all
systems are functioning properly. This routine, which only takes a
few seconds, checks all the functions of the scanner, EAS deactiva-
tion system, scale, remote scale display and interface prior to indi-
cating that it is ready for operation.
A tone indicating Selftest is complete is a configurable feature. See the
topic Power-up Beep Control on page 127 in the Programming chapter of
this manual.
