4 Modify any scanner commands necessary to meet your needs.
Use the Configuration Utility or one of the configuration
methods discussed on page 32.
Use Energy Saver mode with your 1551E or 1553 scanner to
save battery power on your CK30. 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. On a 10-pin scanner port, cable
P/N 3-606034-02 is required.
• Firmware version 2.13 or later on the scanner.
For help using the Configuration Utility, see "Configuring the
CK30 With the Configuration Utility" on page 34.
To enable Energy Saver mode
1 From the Configuration Utility, choose Dock Tethered
Scanner > Scanner Settings > Energy saver mode.
2 Select Enable and press Enter.
3 Press Esc until you exit the Configuration Utility.
You can attach a scanner to the serial port of the CK30 if you
order a serial adapter or a required cable. There are two serial
adapters available to support decoded and undecoded scanners:
• Undecoded serial adapter (P/N 075509)
• Decoded serial adapter (P/N 075510) or AA2 cable
Use these tables to locate the serial adapter and the required
cable you need for your scanner.
