4. Verify that the scanner or scanning-s

cale passes an operational test

by observing the following:

Scanner. Pass UPC/EAN barcode labels in front of the scanner’s win-

dows. Since the interface cable is not yet connected to the POS

term

inal, the scanner may be limited to reading only one or two

labels (see the note that follows). The scanner indicates when each

label has been successfully read by flashing the green scanner light

and emitting a good read tone (beep).

NOTE

When not connected to the host, the scanner ma

one or two labels. (This limitation is dependent upon the interface type.) To

scan multiple labels without connecting to the host, place the unit in Scanner

Diagnostic Mode by pressing the Volume/Tone Push Button for four seconds.

EAS Mode. (

See “EAS Mode” on page 7-42.) To test EAS system

If you have enabled the manual deactivation function available

for

Coupled Mode (

see “Manual EAS Deactivation Push Button” on

page 7-48), test the function bbarcodey pressing the bottom push

button. A ticking sound will be hear

deactivating an EAS tag.

• Decoupled Mode — In this mode, items do not require a barcode

to be scanned to arm

the deactivation function. Simply pass an

active EAS tag over the scanner in the same direction you would

scan a barcode. The bottom-most LED will flash red to indicate

deactivation. No beep is sounded to indicate deactivation in this

mode.

• Hybrid Mode — In Hybrid Mode, the scanner must be enabled,

wever EAS deactivation in this mode also takes place without
