Disconnect scanner cable from keyboard port of the analyzer, disconnect the

Scanner Operation:

To scan bar codes, hold the scanner approximately 1.2 inches away and aim
directly at the bar code. Squeeze the trigger handle on the underside of the
reader to activate the red light beam. Aim the beam of light to scan horizontally
across the entire bar code length as shown below. A successful read will be
indicated by an audible beep. When a successful read is indicated, the scanner
will automatically enter standby mode, and the light beam will turn off. The
scanner is then ready to scan the next bar code.

Cleaning the Scanner Lens:

The Bar Code Scanner may have trouble reading bar codes if the lens becomes
dirty or smudged. Clean the scanner lens to correct the problem.
