3M™ Digital Library Assistant User Guide
Using the Verify option
To use the Verify option, you must first enable the option and then define the type of security status that you
want the DLA to identify (secured item or unsecured item).
See Enabling the Verify option on page 23.
With the Verify option enabled, the DLA can identify the security status of items while performing other DLA
functions (such as Check Shelf Order). This option can be configured to detect either unsecured items or
secured items (not both).
The Verify option is only available at sites that use RFID Security.
Identifying security status
1. From the main DLA screen, select a function (for example Collect Data)
that you want to perform.
2. Use the DLA to perform the function.
• The DLA emits a series of beeps each time it reads an item that
meets the verify criteria (secured or unsecured) that you defined in
the Options screen.
• In addition, the DLA displays a verify icon next to the item. The icon
displayed depends on if the option is configured to detect secured or
unsecured items.
If an item meets the verify criteria and it is also on an active search list, the search list name appears in
place of the verify icon.
Quick access to Volume, Change Battery, About DLA (Model 803/804 only)
While using the DLA, you can quickly access some key functions by
selecting the Options menu.
1. Use the stylus to tap the upper left area of the DLA screen.
The Options menu appears.
2. Select a new volume level, change the battery, or display DLA software
information such as version number and tag data formats.
