Buffering Data
When you are within the wireless range of the base station, your wireless reader sends decoded data to your host through
the base station, just as if you used a corded reader. You can also see the decoded images in the DataMan Setup Tool, if it is
running and is connected to the reader.
When you leave the wireless range, you lose connection to your base station, but you can still keep reading codes. The
decoded data is saved in the buffer of the reader.
Note: The images acquired by the reader when it is out of the wireless range are never saved, and cannot be retrieved.
If you were connected to a terminal program when you left the wireless range, the buffered data appears on your PC again
when you come back within the wireless range.
Buffered read results on the reader are not displayed in the DataMan Setup Tool; they are only transmitted over an existing
keyboard emulation, RS-232 Serial or TCP/IP Telnet connection.
While you are still within the wireless range, the reader periodically blinks BLUE to indicate that the wireless connection is
established.
When the reader leaves the wireless range, the signal of the base station turns off.
Blinking BLUE status indicator: wireless connection is alive.
When you leave the wireless range, a long beep and a single MAGENTA flash on the indicator signals that the reader is
going offline. Lack of BLUEblinking on the status indicator: your reader is offline.
When the reader is offline, good reads are indicated with 2 short beeps and the selected good read status indicator color
(GREENby default). The status indicator beeps twice: your reader is offline while decoding symbols.
