Operating Mode

NOTE
Product Reference Guide
• When the scanner or scanner/scale completes its Selftest successfully,
it emits a tone (when configured to do so) and enters Operating
Mode.
Operating Mode includes Normal Operation (scanning, EAS deactivation
and weighing) and Sleep Mode. These two modes are most commonly
observed by the user/operator.
Normal Operation
This condition is indicated by the scanner green LED being on dim and
steady. For scanner/scale models, the scale yellow LED indicates that the
scale senses a weight of zero on the platter. If you have a scanner without
scale model, the yellow lamp will not be lit when the scanner is ready for
scanning.
Yellow and Green LED indications are configurable. Your scan-
ner may not be programmed to operate in the standard manner
described above.
Once the scanner enters Normal Operation, it begins a countdown
sequence. If there is no activity during a preset period of time (also called
1
time-out ), the unit will shut off the laser and/or motor in order to pro-
long the life of the electrical and mechanical components. Once the scan-
ner has timed out, it enters Sleep Mode.
1. "Timeout" and "Sleep Mode" time delays are programmable features that can be
selected through use of the programming labels included in
ming.
