CIPHERLAB 1166 Bluetooth Scanner
THESE SIX PAGES ARE IMPORTANT.
Keep handy, perhaps laminated.
The notes will save trawling through the enclosed disc.
Encourage all personnel to spend a little time to become familiar with the scanner. It is simple to
operate with practice.
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO MAKING A SUPPORT CALL.
Most issues will be resolved and save you time and cost of a phone call.
Please do not hesitate to call if issue still unresolved.
1. General Description of scanner - see page 2.
Please note: batteries are probably sufficiently charged to immediately start operations.
2. Normal Mode (Live Transmission) – see page 2.
Suitable for circulation and general scanning. Can also be used for small stocktake with Automatic
Memory and (semi) automatic upload (see item 3)
3. Automatic Memory and (semi) automatic upload - see page 2.
This mode is suitable for smaller stocktakes. Once the barcodes are transferred from the scanner to
the computer the barcodes are no longer in the scanner memory.
4. Alternative operation for Stocktake – see page 3 and 4.
This mode is suitable for larger stocktakes but it is still recommended doing the stocktake in
manageable batches. Barcodes are stored in the memory until deliberately transferred and deliberately
cleared. This means the computer can be used for other purposes while stocktake is in process. The
computer must be returned to the Stocktake module (or perhaps "Word") to transfer the stored
barcodes. Take time to follow these instructions carefully to ensure the process is correct.
Pay particular attention to scanning "Enter Setup", "Update", "wait for prolonged beep".
5. Barcode Transmission Speed - see page 4.
This has been set at ½ second (500ms). If it is uploading barcodes too fast then set to a slower speed.
6. Other Points to Note – see page 4.
7. Buzzer Setting (Volume and Pitch) – see page 4.
8. Auto Power Off Mode (Non Trigger Use) – see page 5.
For continuous type scanning after becoming familiar with the scanning distance.
9. Reinstate to Normal Mode and Automatic Memory (as per 2 and 3 above) – see Page 6.
Not to be used in returning from User Choice Memory (4 above).
