Performing the Verification Sequence

While in POS operations, scan an item. The scanner should beep when the item is scanned.

• If the correct item description appears on the screen, it indicates that the scanner is

programmed correctly.

• If the message “# not on file” appears and the number shown on the screen matches the

number under the scanned bar code, it indicates that the scanner is functioning correctly,
but the bar code cannot be identified. The display may not show the first or the last digit
printed on the item. Press CLEAR MENU to cancel the item entry.

• If the screen does nothing or displays the messages “Data Error on Scanner Port” or “Item

Entry Error”, repeat the scan. If the same message appears, it indicates that the scanner
may be programmed incorrectly. Proceed to

“Programming a Sequence” on page 7

.

Note: The first time the scanner is turned on, the first scan may produce the error message

“Data Error on Scanner Port” even if the scanner is programmed correctly.
