Operating the Scanner 5 - 3
Front Panel Buttons
There are four front panel buttons for ease of use.
Scale Zero Button (Configurations with Scale Only)
Figure 5-3 Scale Zero Button
This button is a scale zero button and status LED that controls some scale operation and displays scale status.
Touch Scale Zero to set the scale to zero (within +/- 0.6 lb, or +/- 0.300 kg). The LED is green and can be on,
flashing, or off. LED brightness cannot be controlled. The allowable zeroing weight limit of 0.6 lb and 0.3 kg is
configurable. Refer to the Maximum Scale Zeroing Weight Limit parameter in the MP7000 Scanner Scale Barcode
Programming Guide (p/n MN-002912-xx) for more information.
See
Beeper and LED Indicators on page 5-18 for detailed indications.
Volume/Tone Control Button
Figure 5-4 Volume/Tone Button
This button allows user selectable settings for audible system indications.
The user can control the audible feedback
in the following situations:
• Decoding.
• Completion of a request (e.g., the successful decode of a barcode, and Sensormatic beep).
• Error conditions.
• Processing a request that takes an extended amount of time (e.g., scanning a sequence of parameter
barcodes). This audible indication informs the user that the scanner is working, and not malfunctioning.
To adjust volume and tone:
• Press and release the Volume/Tone button to sound the current scanner beep volume level.
• Press and release the Volume/Tone button twice within two seconds to change the scanner decode volume.
• Press and hold Volume/Tone for three seconds to change to another tone. Tones cycle.
Each volume or tone change produces an audible beep when the new setting is complete. Volume and tone wrap
from high to low.
See
Beeper and LED Indicators on page 5-18 for detailed indications.
NOTE If the decode tone is set to off, the Volume/Tone button on the MP70XX is not operational. To enable the
Volume/Tone button, set a tone option other than Off tone. Refer to the beeper and tone settings in the
MP7000 Scanner Scale Barcode Programming Guide (p/n MN-002912-xx).
