1663 Barcode Scanner User Guide
1.2 MEMORY
The scanned data can be sent to a host computer immediately via the WPAN connection
or stored in flash memory when the scanner is set to Memory mode.
1.2.1 TRANSMIT BUFFER
By default, the transmit buffer is enabled and ready for use when the scanner is out of
range. Upon reading a barcode successfully within range, the scanner responds with one
short beep (high tone) and its LED indicator becomes solid green and goes off. However,
the host computer may not receive the data immediately if the scanner i s out of range.
With the 10 KB transmit buffer, the scanner can ignore the transmission status and keep
on reading barcodes until the buffer is full.
When transmit buffer is enabled…
If the scanner is out of range, i t will respond wi th two short beeps, hi gh-low tone, upon reading a
barcode successfully.
When transmit buffer i s full, the scanner will respond wi th one l ong beep (low tone) and i ts LED
indicator will become solid red and go off. You are advised to get back into range.
When transmit buffer is disabled…
If the scanner is out of range, it will respond with one long beep (low tone) and i ts LED indicator
will become solid red and go off. You are advised to get back into range.

EAN-13 barcodes. Data will be clear ed out once the scanner is turned off or

1.2.2 MEMORY MODE
When the scanner is i n memory mode, it means any real-time connection established
with the host is disabled. 1663 scanner keeps 4MB flash memory for memory mode
operation, which can store over 240,000 scans based on EAN-13 barcodes.
