Auto Reconnect Mode
Auto Reconnect controls whether or not the scanner automatically begins the relink process when a loss of connection is 
detected.  When the Auto Reconnect On bar code is scanned, the scanner begins the relink process immediately, without 
user intervention.  Default = Auto Reconnect On.
Note: If you are connecting to a Bluetooth Interface Module, set Auto Reconnect to Off.
The table below shows the results of the Auto Reconnect On and Off settings: 
Maximum Link Attempts
The Maximum Link Attempts setting controls the number of times the scanner tries to form a connection with a base or an 
Access Point.  During the connection setup process, the scanner transmits in order to search for and connect to a base or 
an Access Point.  In order to prevent continuous transmissions that could interfere with other users of the ISM band, the 
number of attempts to connect is limited by this setting.  After the maximum number of attempts is reached, the scanner will 
not attempt to reconnect to a base or an Access Point.  Pressing the trigger, scanning an Access Point linking bar code, or 
placing the scanner in the cradle resets the attempt count and the scanner will again try to link.

Scanner out of range
Relink occurs automatically.  If maximum 
number of link attempts is unsuccessful, 
then the scanner must be relinked by 
either pulling the trigger, placing the 
scanner in the base, or scanning the 
Access Point linking bar code.  (See 
The scanner is relinked by pulling the 
trigger, or scanning the Access Point 
linking bar code.

(firmware upgrade or power cycle)
Scanner behaves as if out of range.
No attempt to relink made while base 
or Access Point is powered off.  
Trigger must be pulled to initiate 
relinking.
Scanner power down due to 
Power Time-Out Timer setting 
(see 
Trigger must be pulled, Access Point linking bar code must be scanned, or the 
scanner must be placed in the base unit to relink.
(Note: scanner relinks on power up, but powers on due to one of the above 
actions.)
