Flowcharts

Power-up
Scanner power-up is signified by any or
all of the following:
- Facet wheel shows movement
- Lasers turn on
- Status LED(s) turn on
- Speaker sounds tone(s)
- Remote display shows message
- A single red dot is visible on the 7-
segment display
Flashing Green LED
If the Green LED is flashing slowly, the
scanner is most likely in Sleep Mode.
Press and release the Volume/Tone
Push Button or wave your hand in front
of the vertical window to "wake-up" the
scanner.
A flashing Green LED can also mean
the scanner has been disabled by the
POS terminal. To exit this mode, cycle
power or have the terminal re-enable the
scanner.
Selftest Failure
If the scanner fails its Selftest, the
following takes place:
- Speaker sounds a tone at the lowest
value for approx. 3 seconds.
- Green and Yellow LEDs flash on and off
alternately.
- 7-segment display shows a code (1 to
C) to indicate the failure.
Consult the Selftest flowchart if you're
unsure the unit has passed Selftest.
