Honeywell Granit 1981i - Maximum Link Attempts

106 Xenon/Granit User Guide
The table below shows the results of the Auto Reconnect On and Off settings:
Maximum Link Attempts
The Maximum Link Attempts setting controls the number of times the scanner
tries to form a connection with a base. During the connection setup process, the
scanner transmits in order to search for and connect to a base. In order to prevent
continuous transmissions that could interfere with other users of the ISM band,
the number of attempts to connect is limited by this setting. After the maximum
number of attempts is reached, the scanner will not attempt to reconnect to a base.
Pressing the trigger or placing the scanner in the base resets the counter and the
scanner will again try to link.
Scan the Maximum Link Attempts bar code, then scan the number of attempts for
the setting (from 0-100) from theProgramming Chart, beginning on page 341,
then Save. Default = 4.
Note: When Auto Reconnect Mode is On, setting Maximum Link Attempts to zero will cause
the scanner to try to link until the Power Time-Out Timer setting expires. When Auto
Reconnect Mode is Off, setting Maximum Link Attempts to zero will cause the
scanner to only attempt linking one time after a trigger pull.
