Laser barcode scanner combines the best scanning performance and value. The device provides
an accurate, easy, and fast method of data entry and data storage for computerized information
systems. It is easy to install and does not require software or drivers to operate.
The products we are offering can be integrated into a computer system by RS232, PS2 or USB
interface. All the operating parameters are programmed by bar code programming menu and
stored in non-volatile RAM which can retain the settings after power is turned off. All the
functions which are not listed in this menu, please consult your supplier for more details.

Appendix-A
Troubleshooting & Error Beeps
27
a. Problem: Nothing happens when I follow the operating instructions.
Possible Cause
Possible Solution
Interface cables are loose
Check for loose cable connections
b. Problem: When I connected RS232 interface reader to PC, I could not get
power up signal.
Possible Cause
Possible Solution
There is no power from PC series
port.
Use external power supply or take the
power from PC.
c. Problem: When I connected RS232 interface reader to PC or terminal, I got
power up signal but no data transmitted.
Possible Cause
Possible Solution
This may cause by wrong pin out or
wrong communication protocol.
Check the pin out and communication
protocol to match the PC or terminal
you are using.
28
d. My computer gets a keyboard error while booting up.
Possible Cause
Possible Solution
The scanner is damaged or is no
longer functioning.
Disconnect the scanner from your
computer and use your keyboard only.
Reboot your computer. If your
computer still gets a keyboard error,
then the problem may not be the
scanner. Call technical support for
assistance.
e. Problem: Light comes on, but symbol does not decode.
Possible Cause
Possible Solution
Scanner is not programmed for the
correct bar-code type.
Please refer User’s Guide and be sure
to select the correct interface selection
and ensure that the scanner is
programmed to read the type of
barcode you are scanning.
Barcode symbol is unreadable.
Check the symbol to make sure it is
not de-faced. Try scanning test
symbols of the same barcode type.
Move the scanner closer to or further
from the barcode.
Distance between scanner and
barcode is incorrect.
29
f. Problem: The scanner beeps, but no data is displayed on my computer.
Possible Cause
Possible Solution
Scanner is not programmed for the
correct host type.
Please make sure the scanner is
configured to the appropriate host type
by scanning the corresponding
programming barcode on the User’s
Manual.
The scanner is configured to send the Reconfigure the scanner to Send
numeric data as KEYPAD Numerics as MAIN KEYBOARD KEYS
NUMERICS, or the Keyboard Country and set the Keyboard Country setting
setting is set to UNIVERSAL.
to the country setting of your
computer.
g. Problem: Scanned data is incorrectly displayed on the host.
Possible Cause
Possible Solution
Scanner is not programmed to work
with the host.
Be sure proper host type is selected.
For RS232, ensure the scanner’s
communication parameters match the
host’s settings
For keyboard emulation configuration,
ensure the system is programmed for
the correct keyboard type, and that the
CAPS LOCK key is off.
Be sure editing options (e.g UPC-E to
UPC-A Conversion) are properly
programmed.
The scanner’s Keyboard Country
Set the scanners Keyboard Country to
setting does not match the computer’s the same setting as the keyboard on
keyboard setup. your computer.
30
h. Problem: Some of the barcode data is missing displayed on the host.
Possible Cause
Possible Solution
The scanner’s transmit speed is too
fast.
For RS232, you can set up the
scanner’s transmit speed.
i. My Caps Lock LED on my keyboard flickers when I read a bar code.
Possible Cause
Possible Solution
The Keyboard Country that you are
using requires shifting in and out of
the shift Lock mode to send the data
properly.
This is normal operation. You can
reduce the flickering and speed the
data transmit by sending numerics as
keypad numerics, or setting the
keyboard country to UNIVERSAL
mode.
