Laser Scanning Instructions 
Using a laser scanner is basically as simple and intuitive as "point and shoot" 
at a distance of 0-24", depending on the density of the bar code.  
 
Basically, the laser scanner's beam must cross every bar and space on the bar 
code, without touching any other bar codes, as shown in the first example 
below. You'll need to hold the scanner further away to produce a wider beam 
for large bar codes, and closer for bar codes with bars very close together.   
 
Even though momentary exposure to a laser's low-power, visible-light is not 
known to be harmful, you should not aim the beam into anyone's eyes
 
 
 
 
When you scan, you will get one beep when you get a successful decode and a 
high-pitched beep. The data is then transmitted to the Base Station (as it is 
being transmitted, the LED flashes yellow). When the Laser receives the 
acknowledgement from the Base Station that the data has been received, the 
Laser emits a lower pitched beep and turns on a green LED for three seconds.  
 
If the transmitted data fails to be acknowledged, 
 
1)  further scanning is prohibited. You can't pull the trigger again 
until the data reaches the base or until you clear the scanner. 
2)  The laser will retransmit three times, (the yellow LED will 
indicate retransmissions). 
3)  If it fails three times, it will emit a distinct 8-beep pattern and 
turn off. This is your clue to check out the Base Station. 
 
4)  You can pull the trigger to try transmission again. (the laser beam 
will not come on until the transmission is acknowledged or you 
hold the trigger down for 30 seconds to clear the data). 
 
The important thing to remember about using a laser with the RF Laser Reader 
Setup Menu is that you need to make sure the scanner's beam covers only one 
bar code at a time.  The laser scanner's beam is wide enough, and the 
configuration bar codes close together enough, that you will need to use your 
fingers, post-it notes, or the supplied Laser Setup Assist window, to "block 
off" bar codes adjacent to whatever configuration bar code you need to read.
