Guidance for Printing This manual is in A6 size. Please double check your printer setting before printing it out. When the barcodes are to be printed out for programming, the use of a high-resolution laser printer is strongly suggested for the best scan result. Laser Safety This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. If not installed and used in accordance with the instructions in this manual, it may cause interference to radio communications.
Power Supply Use only original factory battery and the charging equipments. Using any other type of battery and charging equipment may damage the scanner and invalidate the warranty. Do not short the battery terminals. The battery could overheat. Do not attempt to split or peel the outer casing. Remove the battery if the scanner is not going to be used for a long time. If the battery is left unused for more than 3 months, you need to charge the battery before use.
Near automatic doors or a fire alarm This unit supports security capabilities that comply with the wireless standard to provide a secure connection when the wireless technology is used, but security may not be enough depending on the setting. Be careful when communicating using wireless technology. We do not take any responsibility for the leakage of information during wireless communication. Connection with all wireless devices cannot be guaranteed.
Tips to help improve your wireless network 1. Position the access point (host/cradle) in a relatively empty space at central location. When possible, place the access point in a central location on the high ground (1m or above). If your access point is against an outside wall, the signal will be weak on the other side of the room. X Bad host placement X 2.
3. Reduce wireless interference. The most common wireless technology, 802.11g (wireless-G), operates at a frequency of 2.4 gigahertz (GHz). Many cordless phones, microwave ovens, hospital equipments, refrigerator, LED, and other wireless electronics also use this frequency. If you use these wireless devices in your office, your device might not be able to "hear" the signals over the noise coming from them.
