5.7 REPLACING AN INSTALLED DS8110
If for any reason, a scanner fails, it can be replaced quickly with a spare unit with parameters
recovered from flash memory or a saved parameter file.
IMPORTANT: This procedure assumes that system parameters have been
properly saved as described in sections 4.8.1, 5.2 and 5.3.
NOTE: If you are not sure the replacement scanner has been defaulted to
factory settings, it is a good idea to default the unit before installing it in a
system. To do this:
1. Attach a power cable to the replacement scanner and apply
power.
2. Simultaneously, press and hold down the yellow X-Press and
Restore buttons on the unit until the LEDs flash three times.
3. Release the buttons. The unit is now reset to the factory default.
NOTE: If laser placement is critical (such as in Packtrack applications with
tight package spacing), the laser location must be marked on the conveyor
prior to the replacement, and these marks must be used to align the
replacement unit.
5.7.1 Replacing a Standalone Scanner Using Restore
A standalone scanner (a single scanner not connected to an array/tunnel) can be replaced
using the Restore button located near the LEDs on the top of the housing.
Figure 58: Restore Button
To replace the scanner using Restore:
1. Remove power from the existing scanner and remove the power and I/O cables.
2. Label the cables attached to ETH1 and/or ETH2 so you can easily identify where they
were connected, then remove the cables.
3. Detach the existing scanner from its mounting bracket, leaving the bracket attached to
the mounting structure.
4. Attach the replacement scanner to the mounting bracket.
5. Reattach the power, I/O, ETH1 and/or ETH2 cables.
