Operating the Scanner
This chapter provides information on how to operate the scanner
when connected to a decoder.
!
ATTENTION: Do not make any adjustments to the
scanner other than those specified in this manual.
!
ATTENTION: If during operation an intense dot of
light is generated instead of a thin line of light,
immediately turn the laser off via the decoder
configuration software, and then remove power from
decoder.
CAUTION: This laser caution symbol appears
where laser radiation is present.
You can disable or turn off the laser from the decoder (Catalog No.
2755-DS/DD) configuration screen by setting the Laser-on Mode
parameter to Off.
➀
To turn off the laser when using a Catalog No. 2755-DM6 or -DM9
decoder, set the configuration parameters as follows:
•
Laser-on Mode to Triggered
•
Decode Trigger to Package Detect
•
Package Detect Input Sense to Lo = Package
(Catalog No. 2755-DM9 only)
If using package detect control, make sure that a package is not
present.
Note: Turning off the decoder will also turn off the laser.
➀
The Laser-on Mode=OFF parameter is supported only by the Catalog Number 2755-DD and -DS
type decoders.
