CHAPTER 2 SCANNING
Introduction
This chapter provides beeper and LED definitions, scanning techniques, general instructions and tips about
scanning, and decode ranges.
Beeper Definitions
The digital scanner issues different beep sequences and patterns to indicate status. Table 2-1 defines beep
sequences that occur during both normal scanning and while programming the digital scanner. (For additional
beeper definitions, see Wireless Beeper Definitions on page 4-3.

Standard Beeper Definitions
Beeper Sequence Indication
Standard Use
Low/medium/high beeps Power up.
High beep A bar code symbol was decoded (if decode beeper is enabled).
Four long low beeps 1. A transmission error was detected in a scanned symbol. The
data is ignored. This occurs if a unit is not properly configured.
Check option setting.
2. When communicating with a cradle, the cradle acknowledges
receipt of data. If the acknowledgment is not received, this
transmission error beep sequence sounds. Data may still have
been received by the host. Check the host system for receipt of
transmitted data. If data was not received by the host, re-scan the
bar code.
Four short beeps Low battery warning.
