Auto Reconnect Mode
Auto Reconnect controls whether or not the scanner automatically begins the 
relink process when a loss of connection is detected. When the Auto Reconnect On 
barcode is scanned, the scanner begins the relink process immediately, without 
user intervention. Default = Auto Reconnect On.
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 or an Access Point. During the connection 
setup process, the scanner transmits in order to search for and connect to a base 
or an Access Point. In order to prevent continuous transmissions that could inter-
fere with other users of the ISM band, the number of attempts to connect is limited
