Operational Verification
Follow these steps to ensure that your unit has arrived undamaged and is fully functional before
installing it in the counter and connecting it to your POS system.
1. If the unit is a scanning-scale, connect the R
emote Scale Display to the proper connector
on the unit’s connector panel (refer to
Figure 28).
NOTE
if the Remote Scale Display is not connected, a scanner power-up Selftest will
sound a long, low beep, and the number “8” will appear on the Health & Status
Indicator (see
Figure 24
) indicating a remote display error. Power-down, connect
a known-good Remote Display to the appropria
te port, and restart to correct this
problem. Alternatively, you can disable the Remote Display using programming
bar codes (see
Chapter 7. Programming
, for more information).
