Scan the Maximum Link Attempts bar code, then scan the number of attempts for the setting (from 0-100) from the inside
back cover. Scan Save to save the setting. Default = 0.
Note: When Auto Reconnect Mode is On, setting Maximum Link Attempts to zero will cause the scanner to try to link until
the Power Time-Out Timer setting (see page 3-9) expires. When Auto Reconnect Mode is Off, setting Maximum Link
Attempts to zero will cause the scanner to only attempt linking one time after a scan button press.
Relink Time-Out
Relink Time-Out controls the idle time between relink attempts. An attempt to link a scanner to a host typically lasts up to 5
seconds. This is the time when the scanner is actually attempting a contact . Relink Time-Out controls the amount of time,
in seconds, that elapses between the end of one connection attempt and the start of the next.
Note: The length of time for an attempt depends on the number of scanners connected to a host. An extra 7 seconds may
be required when a connection is successful.
Scan the Relink Time-Out bar code, then scan the number of seconds for the setting (from 1-100) from the inside back
cover. Scan Save to save the setting. Default = 3 seconds.

Note: See Batch Mode on page 3-16 for information about using Batch Mode.
Default values
When the scanner goes out of range, the scanner repeatedly attempts to connect to the host. Each attempt consists of
approximately 5 seconds of active time followed by 3 seconds of idle time. After one hour, the scanner powers off and
batch mode data is lost.
Maximum Link Attempts set to 15
Other values at default setting
When the scanner goes out of range, 15 attempts are made to link to the host. Each attempt consists of approximately 5
seconds of active time followed by 3 seconds of idle time. After 15 cycles (8*15 =120), or about 2 minutes, the scanner
stops trying to connect to the host, but retains any bar codes that may have been saved in batch mode. After one hour, the
scanner powers off and batch mode data is lost.
Auto Reconnect Mode set to 0
Maximum Link Attempts set to 15
Other values at default setting
When the scanner goes out of range, no action is taken to relink. When the scan button is pressed, 15 attempts are made
to link to the host. Each attempt consists of approximately 5 seconds of active time followed by 3 seconds of idle time.
After 15 cycles (8*15 =120), or about 2 minutes, the scanner stops trying to connect to the host, but retains any bar codes
that may have been saved in batch mode. After one hour, the scanner powers off and batch mode data is lost. Refer to
Auto Reconnect Mode, page 3-2, to review other events that can start the relink process.
