PHD Laser+: To scan barcodes using a PHD Laser+ scanner:
1. Point the unit at the barcode label and press the 

 button. A red light

emits from the scanner's head.

2. The line of light must extend beyond both ends of the barcode for the

barcode to be read. To determine the optimal distance from the barcode,

position the scanner about 2" from the barcode, and then gradually pull it

farther away until it beeps and the red light on top flashes. Once you

determine the best distance, you will be able to scan quickly and easily.

What if you're left handed?

The PHD+ and PHD+ II scan head is reversible. (The PHD Laser+ uses a broad

beam and has no tip.) To reverse the scan head on the PHD+ or PHD+ II, push

the buttons on both sides of the base of the scanner attachment while firmly

lifting upward. Reverse the scan head, then push it back into position.

PHD scanning sounds



A single beep sounds when you press a key or scan a barcode. (A red light

opposite the scanning tip, facing the person operating the PHD, also flashes

to indicate a successful scan.)



A drawnout beeeeep" sounds either to indicate an error in data entry or the

PHD memory is almost full. If the memory is low, stop scanning as soon as

possible. Mark where you are on the shelf and return to the computer to

upload the file.



Three beeps sound when you hold down a special function key (e.g., 

 for

erase when erasing a file stored in the PHD) or to warn of a low battery.

Recording remote circulations

Your PHD's circulation mode lets you check out, renew, and check in copies

outside your library or resource center. Before you start, make certain to complete

the steps outlined in Before recording transactions with a PHD" on page 176.

Important: 

 Erase any old circulation data from your PHD before you start

collecting new remote circulation scans (see page 664).
