Operation and Maintenance
The information contained in this section describes how to operate and maintain the scanner,
scale and EAS system. Topics include “how to’s” on scanning, EAS tag deactivation, weighing,
re-zeroing the scale, removing the top cover and cleaning the upper and lower windows.
Scanning Items
To scan items, slide or push them over the scanner as shown in Figure 35. Also see Figure 4 for
views showing the scan zone. The scanner will work equally well with either a left-to-right
or
right-to-left motion through the scan zone. There is no need to reorient an item’s bar code since
the scanner and its Top Down Reader (TDR) can read the left, right, front and back side, as
well as the top and bottom of an item.
NOTE
“Limited Scanning Mode” is entered by default by interfaces such as USB and IBM
until a Point Of Sale (POS) terminal enables scanning. Labels are “chirped” while in
this mode.
