What If...
Nothing happens when you follow the operating
instructions?
You Should
• Check the system power; is there a battery in the battery box?
• Be sure the scanner is programmed for the terminal in use.
• Make sure the scanner is programmed to read the type of bar code you are
scanning.
• Check for loose cable connections.
• Check the symbol to make sure it is not defaced.
• Try scanning test symbols of the same code type.
• Be sure you are within the proper scanning range.
Symbol is decoded, but not transmitted to the host
terminal?
You Should
• Be sure the proper host type is selected (See Chapter 4).
Scanned data is incorrectly displayed on the terminal?
You Should
• Make sure the system is programmed for the correct keyboard type.
• Make sure the CAPS LOCK key is off.
• Be sure the proper host is selected.
• Be sure editing options (e.g. UPC-E to UPC-A Conversion) are properly
programmed.
If after performing these checks the symbol still does not scan, contact your distributor
or call the Symbol Support Center. See
