2 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Be sure to observe all these safety precautions. Strict observance of these warnings and cautions is a MUST for preventing accidents which could result in bodily injury and substantial property damage. Make sure you fully understand all definitions of these terms and symbols given below before you proceed to the text itself. Alerts you to those conditions which could cause serious bodily injury or death if the instructions are not followed correctly.
3 Handling the battery cartridge • Never disassemble or heat the rechargeable battery cartridge, nor put it into fire or water; doing so could cause battery-rupture or leakage of battery fluid, resulting in a fire or bodily injury. • Do not carry or store the battery cartridge together with metallic ballpoint pens, necklaces, coins, hairpins, etc. Doing so could short-circuit the terminal pins, causing the batteries to rupture or the battery fluid to leak, resulting in a fire or bodily injury.
4 Handling the BHT • The BHT uses a laser light for indicating the scanning range. The intensity of the laser light might be too low to inflict bodily injury. However, do not look into the laser beam. The BHT complies with IEC 60825-1:1993+A2:2001 and 21 CFR 1040.10, 1040.11 except for deviations pursuant to laser notice No. 50, dated July 26, 2001.
5 Handling the rechargeable cartridge • Never charge a wet or damp rechargeable battery cartridge. Doing so could cause the batteries to break, generate heat, rupture or burn. Handling the BHT • If smoke, abnormal odors or noises come from the BHT, immediately turn off the power, pull out the battery cartridge, and contact your nearest dealer. Failure to do so could cause smoke or fire.
6 • Never put the BHT in places where there are excessively high temperatures, such as inside closed-up automobiles, or in places exposed to direct sunlight. Doing so could affect the housing or parts, resulting in a fire. • Avoid using the BHT in extremely humid or dusty areas, or where there are drastic temperature changes. Moisture or dust will get into the BHT, resulting in malfunction, fire or electrical shock.

11 Operating the Touch Screen You can perform tasks by tapping the elements on the touch screen LCD with the stylus that comes with the BHT. Action Description Tap Refers to touching the LCD once. (Functionally equivalent to "click" with a mouse on a PC. Double-tap Refers to quickly touching the LCD twice. (Functionally equivalent to "double-click" with a mouse on a PC. Drag Refers to moving the stylus to the object while touching the LCD. (Functionally equivalent to "drag" with a mouse on a PC.
12 Reading 2D Codes and Bar Codes Turn the BHT on, bring the reading window to a target 2D or bar code, and press the trigger switch. The BHT turns the marker beam (laser) and illumination LED on to indicate the scanning range and scan the target code, respectively. When the BHT has read the code successfully, the indicator LED will illuminate in blue. Code scanning range indicated by the marker Indicator LED Illuminates in blue when the BHT has successfully read the target code.
13 • If the BHT fails to read due to specular effects or other factors, change the scanning angle of the reading window or the distance from codes as shown at right, and try it again. (Specular effects occur when the reflection of the light from the code becomes excessively strong. This can easily happen when the illumination LED lights codes perpendicularly or due to the angle of ambient intense lighting to codes.) • The actual scanning range is narrower than the marker range. The scanning range is approx.
14 Using Radio Link The BHT-202QW-CE supports spread spectrum communication. • If there are too many communications errors, first make sure that the BHT-202QW-CE points directly at an access point because the 2.4-GHz band requires a more or less straight line path. Note also that the low-power radio waves have trouble passing through human bodies and other obstacles along that path.
15 Using Infrared Link CU-200 Make sure that the BHT is securely in the CU-200. Grip style BHT Shield the IrDA interface from direct sunlight, ambient intense lighting (inverter-driven fluorescent lighting, in particular), and other potential sources of infrared radiation. Sources to watch out for include remote control units for television sets and the like.
