When power is applied to the unit, the normal indicator sequence is:
• The scanner indicator (top-most, green LED) will be lit (dim)
steadily.
• The 7-segment display will flash the number ‘8’. indicating initial-
ization.
• If the Selftest detects a problem, the 7-segment display will display a
number code. Refer to Chapter 4, Problem Isolation, for a
description of failure codes and problem isolation procedures.
4. The unit should be permitted to reach thermal equilibrium before
proceeding to the next steps. (Reference the topic Warm-Up Time
in Chapter 1, Introduction.) When the unit is moved from a
cooler temperature (such as a storage area) to a warmer environment
(such as a checkstand location), a period of 60 minutes must be
allowed to acclimate the unit to ambient conditions. Once installed
and powered up, a “power-up” warm-up period of 15 minutes must
be allowed before calibrating or performing weighing operations.
These two warm-up periods may run concurrently.
5. Verify that the scanner or scanner/scale passes an operational test by
observing the following:
NOTE
Scale calibration may be necessary to obtain a zero reading on the display on
rare occasions.
