INDICATORS
INDICATOR LAMP
The indicator lamp has six active modes; off, on dim, flash once,
flashing continually once per second, flashing continually twice per
second and repeating a series of flashes.
Off indicates that either there is no power to the scanner or
the scanner is not operational.
On dim shows that the scanner is on and ready for operation.
This is the normal operating condition.
Flashes once brightly when the scanner has read a barcode
label. This is accompanied by a good read tone from the
speaker unless the speaker has been turned off using
programming labels.
Flashing once per second indicates the scanner has automati-
cally shutdown due to a prolonged period of inactivity.
This condition is referred to as "Sleep Mode" which
extends the life of scanner components by removing
power from the laser diode and motor when the scanner
is not in use. The length of time that the scanner waits
before going into Sleep Mode can be changed using the
programming labels contained in the HS1250/VS1200
Programming Kit (P/N R44-1340).
Flashing twice a second indicates that the scanner is in
Programming Mode. The scanner will not read regular
barcode labels or send data to the host when in this
mode.
Flashes repeatedly accompanied by a repeated series of tones
indicates a scanner failure has occurred.
