The table below shows the results of the Auto Reconnect On and Off settings:
Maximum Link Attempts
The Maximum Link Attempts setting controls the number of times the scanner
tries to form a connection with a base or an Access Point. During the connection
setup process, the scanner transmits in order to search for and connect to a base
or an Access Point. In order to prevent continuous transmissions that could inter-
fere with other users of the ISM band, the number of attempts to connect is limited
by this setting. After the maximum number of attempts is reached, the scanner will
not attempt to reconnect to a base or an Access Point. Pressing the trigger, scan-
ning an Access Point linking bar code, or placing the scanner in the cradle resets
the attempt count and the scanner will again try to link.
Event Auto Reconnect On Auto Reconnect Off
