84 Mesa Rugged Notepad Owner’s Manual
Troubleshooting
1 – The Mesa’s pop up status icon bar appears at the top of the
screen when I try to scan a barcode.
Reason/Solution: If you are using the notes
buon as the scan
buon, (the default) it is easy to inadvertently press on the top
part of the Mesa’s touchscreen when pressing this buon,
which brings up the status bar. Try one of the following
solutions: 1) Set the camera/pictures
or brightness up
buon as the scan buon since they are closer to the edge of the
Mesa (see User Tab instructions). 2) Disable the touchscreen by
pressing and holding the screen orientation
buon.
2 – The Mesa’s connectivity popup box is displayed when I try to
scan a barcode.
Reason/Solution: This can happen if a carriage return is selected
for a data format sux, and you accidentally press the top
of the touchscreen when trying to press the hardware scan
buon. The solutions suggested for Issue 1 above work for this
issue as well.
3 – I need to set up several Mesas the same way. Do I need to
congure all of them individually?
Reason/Solution: You don’t need to congure them individually.
Set up one Mesa the way you want all the Mesas to be
congured. Copy the “LastUser.cfg” le from this Mesa located
at “\Program Files\Barcode Connector” to the other Mesas.
(You can use a thumb drive to transfer the information from
one Mesa to another or transfer it to a PC and download it from
there to the other Mesas using synchronization soware. See
the Mesa manual for details). If you want to be able to restore
to this point, aer you set up the rst Mesa, go to the Proles
tab, and save these seings as Prole 1. Copy the “Prole1.cfg”
le located at “\Program Files\Barcode Connector” to the other
Pop Up Status Icon Bar
