Locked Link Mode - Single Scanner
If you link a scanner to a base or an Access Point using the Locked Link Mode, 
other scanners are blocked from being linked if they are inadvertently placed into 
the base, or if the Access Point linking barcode is scanned. If you do place a differ-
ent scanner into a base, it will charge the scanner, but the scanner will not be 
linked. 
To use a different scanner, you need to unlink the original scanner by scanning the 
Unlink Scanner barcode. (See Unlink the Scanner, page 54.)
Open Link Mode - Single Scanner
When newly shipped or defaulted to factory settings, a scanner is not linked to a 
base or an Access Point. A link is established when the scanner is placed into a 
base, or an Access Point linking barcode is scanned. When in Open Link Mode, a 
new link is established when a new scanner is placed in the base, or you scan an 
Access Point linking barcode. Each time a scanner is placed into a base or scans an 
Access Point linking barcode, the scanner becomes linked to the base or Access 
point and the old scanner is unlinked.
Unlink the Scanner
If a base or an Access Point has a scanner linked to it, that scanner must be 
unlinked before a new scanner can be linked. Once the previous scanner is 
unlinked, it will no longer communicate with the base or Access Point. To unlink the 
scanner from a base or an Access Point, scan the Unlink Scanner barcode below.
