How to troubleshoot a Motorola Symbol LS2208 Barcode Reader that is not responding?
If nothing happens when you follow the operating instructions, or the Motorola Barcode Reader displays erratic behavior, there may be no power to the scanner. Check the system power and ensure the power supply is connected if your configuration requires one. Also, check for loose cable connections.
Why does my Motorola Symbol LS2208 Barcode Reader laser come on, but the symbol does not decode?
The Motorola Barcode Reader may not decode the symbol because it is not programmed for the correct bar code type. Ensure the scanner is programmed to read the type of bar code you are scanning. The bar code symbol might be unreadable, so check the symbol to make sure it is not defaced and try scanning test symbols of the same bar code type. The distance between the scanner and bar code might be incorrect, so move the scanner closer to or further from the bar code.
What to do if scanned data is incorrectly displayed on the host using my Motorola Symbol LS2208 Barcode Reader?
If scanned data is incorrectly displayed, ensure the proper host is selected. Ensure the scanner’s communication parameters match the host’s settings. For a USB HID keyboard or a keyboard wedge configuration, ensure the system is programmed for the correct keyboard type and language, and the CAPS LOCK key is in the correct state. Also, ensure editing options are properly programmed.
What to do if the symbol is decoded, but not transmitted to the host from my Motorola Symbol LS2208?
If the symbol is decoded, but not transmitted to the host, the Motorola Barcode Reader might not be programmed for the correct host type. Scan the appropriate host type bar code.
