If you leave the BHT with the battery cartridge discharged or with no battery cartridge
loaded or if you replace the battery cartridge in a wrong way, the BHT may lose the
data stored in it.
Before cold booting (refer to "Warm and Cold Booting"), it is recommended that
important data be saved into the FLASH folder or uploaded to the host computer. Cold
booting will erase all data stored in the RAM.
All products and company names mentioned in this manual are trademarks or

• If the BHT fails to read due to specular effects or
other factors, change the scanning angle of the
reading window or the distance from codes as
shown at right, and try it again. (Specular effects
occur when the reflection of the light from the bar
code becomes excessively strong. This can easily
happen when the reflecting surface is polished or
covered with vinyl.)
• The laser light indicates the scanning range as a
guide. The indicated scanning range will deviate a
little bit from the actual one. Keep the BHT so that
the laser light comes to almost the center of the
bar code height.
• The bar code reading procedure may differ depending upon the application used,
so follow the application’s manual.
• Before reading labels, clean them if stained.
• Avoid using the BHT in direct sunlight. The BHT might fail to read
correctly.
• To read bar codes on curved surfaces, apply the bar-code reading window
to the center of each bar code at a right angle.
• If you pull the bar-code reading window away from bar codes, the actual
scanning range will become narrower than the range covered by the
illumination LED.
The light intensity of the laser light or illumination LED will var
y
depending upon the scanning conditions and variation of its elements.
17
Using Radio Link
The BHT-400BW-CE supports spread spectrum communication.
• If there are too many communications errors, first make sure that the
BHT-400BW-CE points directly at an access point because the 2.4-GHz band
requires a more or less straight line path. Note also that the low-power radio
waves have trouble passing through human bodies and other obstacles along that
path.
• This link will not operate properly in the vicinity of microwave ovens, industrial
heaters, high-frequency medical equipment, and other sources of radio waves in
the 2.4-GHz band.
• Electromagnetic noise from personal computers, refrigerators, and other home
appliances can also interfere with link operation.
• Environmental factors that can also interfere with link operation include large
metallic objects, metallic dust, or metallic walls in the vicinity of the path and
vibration at either end.
To System Designers:
• Before developing the application, make sure that the intended
environment is free of the interference factors above and thus actually
capable of supporting link operation.
• Assume that there will be communications failures requiring robust retry
capabilities in the software.
• When introducing the BHT link operation into an environment where
equipment using radio waves in the 2.4-GHz band operates or when
introducing such equipment after the introduction of the BHT lin
k
operation, be sure to confirm that the BHT radio link operates properly
with all equipment being in operation beforehand.
• If the environment of the radio communications system is changed afte
r
the introduction (e.g., newly installed household appliances and
movement/addition of shelves or objects), then confirm that the radio lin
k
operates properly again before the actual use.
18
Using Infrared Link
CU-400
Make sure that the BHT is securely in the CU-400.
Shield the IrDA interface from direct sunlight, ambient intense lighting
(inverter-driven fluorescent lighting, in particular), and other potential
sources of infrared radiation. Sources to watch out for include remote
control units for television sets and the like.
19
Loading the Battery Cartridge
Before the first use of the BHT, be sure to load the battery cartridge as shown below.
The battery cartridge is not loaded in the BHT when shipped from the factory.
(1) Turn the BHT upside down.
(2) Slide the release buttons in the direction shown below and remove the battery
cartridge cover.
(3) Push the battery cartridge into the BHT.
(To remove it, first make sure that the BHT is turned off. Slide the release
buttons, remove the battery cartridge cover, and pull up the battery pull strap.)
(4) Set the battery cartridge cover back into place and slide the release buttons to
the original position.
(5) Place the BHT on the CU-400 to charge the rechargeable battery cartridge.

• The BHT integrates a rechargeable backup power source which backs up
the memory and calendar clock in the BHT when no battery cartridge is
loaded or the voltage level of the battery cartridge drops below the
specified level. The backup power source is automatically charged by the
battery cartridge.
When you first load the battery cartridge after purchase or you load it
after leaving the BHT unused for a long time, do not remove the battery
cartridge for at least 48 hours after that loading. This is for charging the
memory backup source integrated in the BHT.
• For handling notes to be observed at the time of battery replacement, refe
r
to the "Battery Replacement Notes" on page 23.
21
Calibrating the Touch Screen
At the first use of the BHT, you need to calibrate the touch screen and set up the
calendar clock. Press the power key to turn on the BHT. The calibration screen
appears, so follow the on-screen instructions. If nothing appears, first perform a
"cold boot" (described on the "Warm and Cold Booting" on page 24).
⇓

BHT Turning-off Notes
If you press the power key to turn off the BHT, the BHT displays the following
message and starts preparation for shutdown.
When the above message is displayed, do not remove the battery cartridge.
If you do so, the data stored in the BHT may be lost.
23
Battery Replacement Notes
When is battery replacement needed?
If the "Charge the battery!" appears on the LCD, replace the rechargeable battery
cartridge with a fully charged one.
If you leave the BHT without replacing the rechargeable battery cartridge, the
integrated calendar clock and data stored in the BHT’s RAM can no longer be
backed up. The calendar clock may stop and RAM data may be lost.
• Be sure to turn the BHT off before battery replacement.
• Replace the battery cartridge quickly. Load a charged battery cartridge
within 3 minutes after the removal to avoid data loss.
• After battery replacement, turn the BHT on and check the BHT operation.
• If you leave the BHT with no battery cartridge loaded for a long time, the
contents of the memory may no longer be backed up so that the dat
a
stored in the BHT’s RAM may be lost. It is recommended that importan
t
data be saved into the FLASH folder or uploaded to the host computer.
• The battery cartridge will gradually deteriorate during the repeated cycles
of charging and discharging due to its properties. When the battery
operation period becomes shortened due to its deterioration even if it has
b
een charged for the specified hours, replace the battery cartridge with
a
new one.
• Use only DENSO WAVE-authorized battery cartridges and chargers.
•
N
ever dispose of battery cartridges into a fire. They should be recycled
properly. Do not throw them in a trash.

System Program error
Problem
A System Program error has occurred.
Solution
Contact your system administrator.
Low battery warning
Problem
When the BHT is turned on or off or during
execution of program, the battery output level has
dropped below a specified lower limit.
If low battery is detected, the BHT displays
this message for approx. 2 seconds and
beeps three times (for 0.1 second per beep).
After that, it will resume previous regula
r
operation.
Solution
The battery cartridge will need to be recharged
before long. Replace or recharge the battery
cartridge.
37
Shutdown due to low battery
Problem
When the power is turned on or off or during
execution of programs, the battery output level has
lowered to the extent the BHT can no longe
r
operate.
If lower battery is detected, the BHT beeps
five times (for 0.1 second per beep) and
then turns itself off. Depending upon the
battery level, the
b
eeper may not sound five
times.
Solution
Replace or recharge the battery cartridge.
Service life warning for backup battery
Problem
The backup battery has been charged/discharged
by the specified number of times so that the battery
capacity lowers below the specified level.
Solution
Replace the backup battery. For the replacement
procedure, refer to the BHT-400B-CE/400BW-CE
User's Manual.

Proper Care of the BHT
Wipe the BHT's charge terminals and battery cartridge terminals with a cotton swab
or the like periodically. Clean the BHT housing with a dry, soft cloth. Before cleaning,
be sure to turn the BHT off.
• Never use benzene, alcohol, or other organic
solvents. The housing may be marred or the
paint may come off.
• Never rub or strike the liquid crystal display
(LCD) with anything hard. The LCD surface will
be easily scratched or broken.
• When cleaning the keypad, do not scrub the
surface too hard or pull on the keys. Doing so
may break the keys.
• If the BHT becomes smudged, wipe it with a soft cloth that has been moistened in
soapy water (always use neutral detergent) and wrung out thoroughly.
Dust or dirt accumulating on the clear plate of the bar-code reading window will
affect reading performance. If you use the BHT in dusty areas, therefore,
periodically check the clear plate of the bar-code reading window and clean it if
dusty.
• To clean the plate, first blow the dust away with an airbrush. Then wipe the plate
with a cotton swab or the similar soft one gently.
• If sand or hard particles have accumulated, never rub the plate; doing so will
scratch or damage it. Blow the particles away with an airbrush or a soft brush.
39
Handling Notes
• An early upload of gathered data is recommended, since the data stored in the
RAM might be affected by the so-called "soft error" or other environmental
phenomena.
• Do not use the BHT in the vicinity of radio equipment. The BHT may malfunction.
• Avoid storing the battery cartridge in a hot place. The battery capacity may be
decreased.
• Do not touch the battery cartridge terminals or BHT's charge terminals by hand or
stain them. Doing so could result in BHT's malfunction or cartridge charging
failure.
• When connecting or disconnecting cables, do not plug or unplug at an angle and
do not pull them strongly. Doing so will result in a machine failure.
• If the BHT has been stored in a hot (50°C to 60°C, 122°F to 140°F) and humid
place, allow it to sit at room temperature and humidity for at least one day before
use. Using the BHT with its inside being hot will fail to scan or result in a machine
failure.
• If the stylus wears so that its tip becomes sharpened, replace it.
• In environments where static electricity can build into significant charges, do not
operate the BHT. Doing so will result in malfunction or machine failure.
• Avoid dropping the BHT or letting it undergo any shock or impact. Doing so will
break or damage the BHT.
• If the "Charge the battery!" message appears after the BHT undergoes any shock
or impact, turn the BHT off and on and then check the battery output level. The
battery may not have run out.
• Battery cartridges should be recycled properly in conformity with local codes and
regulations.

CAUTION: Radio Frequency Radiation Exposure
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are
associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however,
that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless
devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range
while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by
heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does not produce heating effects
causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF
exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested
that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been
confirmed by additional research. This Barcode Handy Terminal that is installed
WM-G-MR-01 (FCC ID: PZWWMGMR01) has been tested and found to comply
with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled equipment and
meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to
OET65. Please refer to the SAR test report that was uploaded at FCC website.
Do not place hands or body near the antenna section to avoid RF exposure.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
This handy scanner is intended exclusively for hand held use.
Do not use while wearing the scanner on the body.
There is no accessory for body worn purpose.
Do not place hands or body near the antenna area.
