Understand The Sf61B Behavior; Blue Honeywell Ready-To-Work Indicator; Status Light - Honeywell SF61 User Manual

UNDERSTAND THE SF61B BEHAVIOR

The SF61B uses lights, beeps, and vibrations to indicate if a barcode has been
successfully decoded.
Note: The SF61B has a different behavior (lights, beeps, vibrate alert)
than its predecessor, the SF51. If you prefer to use the beep and LED
mode of the SF51, you can use EasySet to activate the legacy mode
(Operating settings > Beeps / LEDs > Beep and LED mode > Legacy
mode).

BLUE HONEYWELL READY-TO-WORK INDICATOR

Note: The blue Honeywell Ready-to-Work light is enabled by default but
you can use EasySet to disable the light or choose another color if you
wish (Operating settings > Beeps / LEDs > Ready-to-Work LED).
The blue Honeywell Ready-to-Work indicator LED gives information about the
Bluetooth connection. When a connection has been established the light is always on
(blue) unless the scanner is docked in a charger (in this case the LED displays a green
or red battery charge indication even though the Bluetooth connection is still active).
Blue Honeywell Ready-to-Work Indicator
LIGHT STATE WHAT IT MEANS
Off A Bluetooth connection has not been established.
The scanner is trying to establish a Bluetooth connection with a
Blinking, slow
Bluetooth host device.
A Bluetooth connection is established with a Bluetooth base
On station or host computer and the scanner is ready to scan
barcodes and send data.
When using your scanner to scan barcodes (blue light on), your scanner will also flash
status information using green or red lights. See the Status Light information in the
next section.

STATUS LIGHT

Note: The following tables show the default behavior of the status light.
You can use EasySet to modify this behavior if you wish (Operating
settings > Beeps / LEDs).
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 Honeywell Ready-to-
Work Indicator is on. This way the scanner can communicate more than one type of
information at the same time.
For example, while the blue LED is on to show that there is a Bluetooth connection,
the scanner will flash green when you have successfully scanned and transmitted a
barcode.
