Table 3-1
Problem
Digital scanner decodes bar
code, but does not transmit
the data to the host.
Host displays scanned data
incorrectly.
Digital scanner emits
low/low/low/extra low beeps
when not in use.
Digital scanner emits low/high
beeps during programming.
Digital scanner emits
low/high/low/high beeps
during programming.
Maintenance & Technical Specifications
Possible Causes
Digital scanner is not programmed
for the correct host type.
Interface cable is loose.
If the digital scanner emits 4 long
low beeps, a transmission error
occurred.
If the digital scanner emits 5 low
beeps, a conversion or format error
occurred.
If the digital scanner emits
low/high/low beeps, it detected an
invalid ADF rule.
If the digital scanner emits high/low
beeps, the scanner is buffering
Code 39 data.
Digital scanner is not programmed
to work with the host.
RS-232 receive error.
Input error or Cancel bar code was
scanned.
Out of ADF parameter storage
space.
Possible Solutions
Scan the appropriate host type
programming bar code. See the
chapter corresponding to the host type.
Re-connect the cable.
Set the scanner's communication
parameters to match the host's setting.
Configure the digital scanner's
conversion parameters properly.
Program the correct ADF rules. Refer
to the Advanced Data Formatting
Programmer Guide.
Normal scanning a Code 39 bar code
and the Code 39 Buffering option is
enabled.
Scan the appropriate host type
programming bar code.
For RS-232, set the digital scanner's
communication parameters to match
the host's settings.
For a Keyboard Wedge configuration,
program the system for the correct
keyboard type, and turn off the CAPS
LOCK key.
Program the proper editing options
(e.g., UPC-E to UPC-A Conversion).
Normal during host reset. Otherwise,
set the digital scanner's RS-232 parity
to match the host setting.
Scan the correct numeric bar codes
within range for the parameter
programmed.
Erase all rules and re-program with
shorter rules.
