Use Energy Saver mode with your 1551E or 1553 scanner to
save battery power on your CK31. When you use Energy Saver
mode, the scanner is active while you are pressing the trigger and
goes into Standby mode after a good read. With Energy Saver
mode enabled, the current consumption drops to zero during
standby. Full energy is restored when you scan the next label.
To use Energy Saver mode, you need:
• an energy saver cable P/N 3-606032-03 for the serial port.
• firmware version 2.13 or later on the scanner.
For help using Intermec Settings, see "Configuring the CK31
With Intermec Settings" on page 40.
