    Pre-Installation Considerations Figure 2-3. Produce Bar and Produce Rail Produce Produce Bar Option Rail Option Pre-Installation Considerations It should be noted that the scope of this manual does not encompass all factors related to worker safety and checkstand design. It does, however, offer a list of considerations that may be helpful in ensuring greater safety and productivity.
  • Page 36: Checkstand Design

    Checkstand Design 1. Select a design which allows load-sharing by several muscle groups (for example designs which allow the cashier to use both hands for scanning and bagging). 2. Select checkstands which deliver products to the cashier on an input belt and do not require the unloading of items from a cart.
  • Page 37: Scanner Installation

    Scanner Installation Scanner Installation 1. Mount the horizontal surface of the scanner flush with the counter- top to encourage slide scanning rather than lifting. 2. Position the centerline of the scanner read area 8 - 10 inches (20.3 - 25.4 cm) from the edge of the checkstand (cashier side). Scanner Maintenance 1.
  • Page 38: Site Preparation Overview

    • Develop a smooth fluid motion during scanning, sharing work equally between hands. • Use the entire hand for grasping and lifting items. • Since the scanner reads labels on all four sides plus the top and bottom, there is no need to turn a bar code toward either of the scanner windows.
  • Page 39 Site Preparation Overview Recommended Power Installation — Since the typical grocery envi- ronment includes conveyor belts and electric motors, care should be taken to ensure that the scanner has a supply of “clean” power (power without excessive electrical noise). Counter Preparation — Since the majority of grocery checkout lanes are designed as “left-hand take away,”...
  • Page 40: Ventilation And Spacing

    unavoidable, an alternate method of platter removal using two coins may be employed, however a minimum vertical clearance of 1.5” (3.8 cm) Figure 2-4). Another consideration is that MUST be provided (reference the scan zone must be kept free of obstructions such as enclosures, key- board mounts, etc.
  • Page 41 Ventilation and Spacing • A source of air that provides adequate cooling by convective air flow. DO NOT place the scanner in a close-fitting, fully enclosed checkstand. Provide a MINIMUM of 16 square inches (103.2 square centimeters) of air intake from below the installation for sufficient convective cooling.
  • Page 42: Service Access

    Service Access The scanner and scanner/scale have been engineered to allow performance of all routine service and maintenance (such as “zeroing” and calibration) without removing the scanner from the checkstand. Additionally all cable connections made at the scanner can be connected and removed while the unit is sitting on the countertop.
  • Page 43: Checkstand Preparation

    Checkstand Preparation Checkstand Preparation Figure 2-6. When performing a first time installation into a Reference new checkstand, verify before cutting that room will be allowed for cabling, the AC/DC Power Supply, and any EAS peripheral equipment (such as controller boxes, etc.). When making the opening, take extra care to accurately cut to the correct dimensions.
  • Page 44: Liquid Spills And Moisture

    Liquid Spills and Moisture Select a checkstand design which allows fluids to flow through, and directs liquids away from any electronic equipment or storage areas. Counter Cutout The most important consideration when planning the counter opening for the scanner is the operator’s comfortable reaching distance. The ideal, ergonomically sound installation allows items to be directed within easy reach, and a scanning area requiring no lifting or special orientation of items.

  • Page 121: What Is Programming Mode

    Programming Overview What Is Programming Mode? Programming Mode is a state in which the scanner must be placed in order to accept commands via programming bar code labels. When pro- gramming using the bar code labels in this manual, the scanner is typically placed in Programming Mode by scanning the SWITCH label.
  • Page 122: Programming Session

    Programming Session A typical programming session is conducted as follows: 1. Scan the SWITCH bar code to place the scanner in Programming Mode. Depending upon its current programming, the scanner may emit a beep or beeps, indicating it has read the bar code and the scanner (top) green LED will flash on and off slowly while the scan- ner remains in Programming Mode.
  • Page 123 Programming Overview It is recommended that programming sessions be limited to one feature at a time. Should you make a mistake in the pro- gramming sequence, it can be difficult to discover where an error has been made if several features are programmed at once.
  • Page 124: Programming Sequence

    Programming Sequence To modify a scanner feature (item), the programming bar codes contained in this manual must be scanned in a given sequence depending upon the Table 6-1 feature being programmed (as shown in ). There are three possi- ble programming sequences: If the scanner’s interface type must be changed, always be sure that interface configuration is the FIRST item scanned during a programming session.
