R44-1430 7
SPEAKER
The speaker produces an audible indication of scanner operation. It
sounds a normal tone, an alternate tone, or an error tone (a repeating
series of tones).
NORMAL TONE
The normal tone sounds when a barcode label is recognized, its
content is decoded and the data is transmitted to the host.
ALTERNATE TONE
The alternate tone has a lower pitch than the normal tone. It is
sounded in four different situations:
• In Normal Mode when the barcode has been read but the
scanner is not programmed to transmit that symbology to
the host.
• In Normal Mode when the
HS1250 cannot successfully decode
a barcode label.
• When in Programming Mode, any programming label that
your scanner cannot use (e.g. Baud Rate for any interface
other than RS-232) is rejected and the alternate tone is
sounded.
ERROR TONE
The error tone alerts the operator of possible system or component
failure and only sounds when a problem is detected.
