instrument is also self-calibrating, as all instrument functions are continuously monitored and verified by the
instrument software when a test is performed. The instrument does not require additional calibration by the
user.
For Class 2 Laser Instruments:
CAUTION:
CLASS 2 LASER RADIATION WHEN OPEN. DO NOT STARE INTO THE BEAM.
CAUTION: This manual provides safety instructions for instruments equipped with class 1 or class 2
barcode scanner lasers. Please refer to the back panel of the instrument to identify the class of laser
and follow appropriate instructions provided in this manual.
