in the

IMPORTANT! Print out this page to scan the barcode. Do not scan it onscreen.
After data is read and sent to the computer, by default, the CHS will beep once,
the LED will flash green, and the laser will turn off. The CHS 7NRx and 7P will also
vibrate to indicate that data is read. You can modify the beep / LED / vibrate
settings by using the Scanner Settings utility
or Command Barcodes.
To configure an automatic Carriage Return or Tab after each scan of data, use the
Scanner Settings utility
or Command Barcodes.

If no data is read in a few seconds, the laser will turn off, and you must try again.
To Disconnect: Turn off the CHS. Press and hold the power button for at least 3 seconds,
until the CHS beeps twice (high-low) and the blue LED turns off.
Automatic Reconnection:
After you power on the CHS, it will automatically try to connect to the last computer it
paired and connected to. Make sure your computer is in range with Bluetooth enabled and
SocketScan 10 is running.
If the CHS is connected to your computer and gets disconnected, it will try to reconnect for
a few minutes. Make sure the computer is on and in range and SocketScan 10 is running. If
the CHS cannot reconnect, it will emit a long beep. Press the trigger button to restart the
reconnection process.
