Bar code decoding laser engines and imager engines are designed to read, decode and collect bar coded data from any nearby compatible bar code label that is visible and on printed media. The Bluetooth Ring Scanner consists of a ring decoder tethered to a sturdy, compact, mobile Bluetooth module and battery. The module’s lightweight battery provides power to the ring decoder. The hand strap assembly is designed to be worn on the back of either hand or on either wrist. The hook and loop fabric on the hand strap enables one-handed installation, adjustment and removal of the hand strap. Note: Bluetooth Ring Scanner Module paired data is stored in non-volatile memory in the module and data is saved over power cycles. Paired devices automatically reconnect when power is applied. The assembled Bluetooth Ring Scanner provides wireless communication with Bluetooth enabled Honeywell computers. When the Bluetooth Ring Scanner Module pairs with another Bluetooth device, the Bluetooth Ring Scanner Module can send serial data to the paired Bluetooth device. The Bluetooth tethered ring scanner and tethered ring imager connectors are not interchangeable with other Honeywell mobile devices that also use tethered ring scanners or ring imagers (i.e., Dolphin 70e Black in wearable sled, HX2 or HX3). For information about other scanners, such as tethered ring scanners, scanners connected to a COM port or other Bluetooth scanners, refer to www.honeywellaidc.com or the scanner manufacturer’s website. About this Guide This guide provides instruction for the end-user or system administrator to follow when setting up a new Bluetooth Ring Scanner module and ring bar code decoder. This guide includes all programming bar codes and decode zones. Also included are setup and use instruction for the Bluetooth Ring Scanner battery chargers. Out of the Box After you open the shipping carton verify it contains the following items: • Bluetooth Ring Scanner module • Ring bar code decoder • Hand strap • Rechargeable battery • Quick Start Guide If you ordered accessories for the Bluetooth Ring Scanner, verify they are also included with the order. Keep the original packaging material in the event the Bluetooth Ring Scanner should need to be returned for service. For details, see Product Service and Repair (page 10-1). 2-1 Initial Setup Following are the steps you might take when setting up a new Bluetooth Ring Scanner. More instruction for each step is listed later in this guide. Contact Customer Support (page 10-1) if you need additional help. Accessory installation or removal should be performed on a clean, well-lit surface. When necessary, protect the work surface, the Bluetooth Ring Scanner, and components from electrostatic discharge. Note: The battery and ring device cables should not be exchanged or replaced in a dirty, harsh or hazardous environment. When the ring tethers are disconnected, any dust or moisture that adheres to the tether connector can potentially cause damage upon cable re-connection with the Bluetooth Module. Hardware Setup 1.

Module 2. Battery 3. Ring Scanner 4. Hand Strap Assembly Bluetooth Module 1. Battery Compartment Latch 2. Speaker 3. LED 4. Input/Output Port: Ring device cable connector The Bluetooth ring scanner module does not have a power or on-off switch. When the battery is installed, the unit and its accessories are On. Remove the battery to power down or turn off the unit. 2-3 Wrist Strap / Back of Hand Strap 1. Loops 2. Elastic ring cable protector 3. Bluetooth module sleeve 4. Hooks Ring Imager / Ring Scanner The ring imager can scan and decode 1D and 2D bar codes. The imager has three small illumination LEDs at the top of the scan window or aperture. The ring scanner can scan and decode 1D bar codes. The scanner does not have illumination LEDs. After pairing with a Bluetooth enabled mobile computer, the ring device can then send the collected bar code data through the module to the Bluetooth enabled mobile computer for processing. The Bluetooth Ring Scanner module emits good read or bad read sounds based on the ring scan results. See Status LEDs and Beep Indicators (page 2-7) for an explanation of the LED and beep patterns emitted. These ring decoding devices do not have the ability to emit a good read or bad read sound. Ring Imager Ring Scanner Cable Connector Do not touch, push against or brace your finger on the scan aperture at any time. When new, there is a clear, tabbed protective film covering the ring decoder scan window. Remove and discard the clear, tabbed protective film before scanning a bar code. 2-4 Assembly Determine Left or Right Orientation Determining whether to wear the module assembly on the left or right has a bearing on how the ring cable is attached to the module and the ring to the finger. The ring cable should not cross over or under the hand. Insert Module in Sleeve There are two strap sizes to accommodate different sizes of wrists and hands. Choose the best size for a secure fit. Insert the module in the module sleeve on the hand strap before securing the hand strap to the hand, if desired. The module is inserted in the sleeve with the LED facing upwards and visible through the circular cutout on the top of the module sleeve. Press the loops (on the top of the wrist strap) against the hooks (on the bottom of the wrist strap) to secure the strap to the back of your hand or wrist. 2-5 Connecting the Ring Device Cable 1. Slip the ring cable connector through the elastic ring cable guide on the side of the Bluetooth module sleeve. The connector can be inserted from the left or the right. 1. Choose the same side as the finger that will be wearing the ring. The ring cable guides are designed to minimize excessive pulling or tugging on the scanner cable after the ring device is connected to the Bluetooth module. 2. Press the connector firmly into the I/O port. If there is a battery in the module the Bluetooth module LED illuminates and the module beeps, signifying a ring cable I/O secure connection. To remove the ring device cable, pinch and pull the cable connector straight up and away from the Bluetooth module. Do not pull the cable when removing the ring device cable from the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module. Inserting the Battery The battery is spring loaded and will slide out when the battery cover latch is opened. As soon as the battery contacts lose connection with the battery terminals in the battery bay, the Bluetooth module turns Off. When a battery is in the module, the battery slides out of the battery bay far enough to be grasped and removed. Do not use a metal object, or extreme force, to remove a battery from the module. Note: A ring should be connected to the module before a battery is inserted in the module. 1. To open the battery bay door on the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module, orient the module so the LED on the module is facing upward. 2. Slide the battery bay latch to the right. The battery bay cover springs open. 3. Insert a fully charged battery into the battery bay, making sure the battery terminals enter the battery bay at the right side of the battery opening. Use the direction of the arrow on the battery label as a guide. 2-6 4. Press down on the battery until it is seated in the battery bay and close the battery bay hatch cover. Slide the battery latch to the left to secure the battery in the Bluetooth Module. 5. The Bluetooth module beeps (short low tone beep, long low tone beep, long high tone beep) and the module LED flashes. Module Battery Help Issue: There is no beep or LED flash when inserting battery into the module. Solution: If a ring scanner is tethered to the Bluetooth module while a battery is being replaced and there is no beep or LED flash, remove the battery, turn it over and reinsert, making sure the battery terminals enter the battery bay to the right. Slide the battery bay latch to the left to secure the battery in the Bluetooth Module. If there is sufficient power in the battery, the Bluetooth module emits a series of beeps (short low tone beep, long low tone beep, long high tone beep) and the LED flashes. Adjusting the Ring Device Strap The ring device finger loop is located under the ring device. The ring device has a built-in quick disconnect designed for safety hazards. The quick disconnect is not intended for daily removal of the ring device. 1. Pull gently on the end of the finger loop strap to separate the hook and loop fabric. 1. Slide your finger into the opened loop under the ring device. 1. Grasp the end of the finger loop strap and gently pull to loosen then tighten the finger strap until the ring device is comfortably snug and the scan aperture is in the desired location. 1. Secure the ring strap at the desired location by pressing the hook fabric to the loop fabric on the strap surrounding the finger. Status LEDs and Beep Indicators 1. Module LED 2. Module Beeper 3. Ring Decoder LED The ring devices do not have the ability to emit a good decode read sound (after a bar code scan) or bad decode read sound. The Bluetooth Ring Scanner module emits the good read or bad read sounds. The module and the ring devices have an LED. 2-7 Scanning bad bar codes generates a bad scan beep and/or an LED light sequence. In some cases, the receipt of data from the ring device triggers a good scan beep from the Bluetooth module, and then the rejection of scanned bar code data by the paired mobile device processing causes a bad scan beep from the paired mobile device on the same data. See the mobile device specific guide for an explanation of the LED and beep indicators for the paired device. For example, if you have paired the Bluetooth Ring Scanner with the MX7 Tecton so the MX7 Tecton can manipulate the scanned bar code data received from the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module, refer to the MX7 Tecton User's Guide for MX7 Tecton LED and beep explanations. Note: Bluetooth device connection (or pairing) can occur at distances up to 32.8 ft (10 meters) line of sight. Distances greater than the line of sight limit will break the connection. Arriving at the limit may cause unexpected beep and/or LED indications. When the connection is broken, the Bluetooth Ring Scanner Module attempts to reconnect with a previously paired device for 30 seconds. Move the Bluetooth Ring Scanner Module closer to the target. A disconnected paired device beeps on reconnect. Bluetooth Module Status LED and Beep Indicators The Bluetooth Module blue LED and buzzer indicate status as follows: Blue LED System Condition Indication Fast blink, 0.25 sec. duration every 1.0 sec.

Low Battery in the Bluetooth Module Four Short high beeps Off Suspend or Off (not tethered or no battery power available in Bluetooth Module) None 2-9 Rebooting the Bluetooth Module Suspend To improve battery life, the Suspend timeout can be adjusted by scanning the bar codes in Set Suspend Timeout. Suspend begins if the Suspend timeout occurs before the ring device trigger is pressed. A ring decoder scan button press is required to wake the module from Suspend. The module is ready to receive bar code data. Note: After the ring device scan button press (to wake the module from Suspend) another scan button press is needed to scan a bar code. If the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module is in master mode and the Reconnect Timeout period expires, a ring decoder scan button press resets the Reconnect Interval timer and the Reconnect Timeout timer in the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module. Reboot Follow the steps below to reboot and restore the previously stored module configuration settings: 1. Remove the battery. 2. Replace the battery. Do not press the ring device trigger. The previously stored configuration settings are restored. Reset Follow the steps below to restore the module factory default configuration: 1. Remove the battery. 2. Replace the battery while pressing the ring device trigger for 30 or more seconds. The factory default configuration is restored. Battery Note: Connect the Ring decoder to the Bluetooth Module before inserting a battery into the module. The Bluetooth Ring Scanner module performs initialization with the ring device on bootup. The spring-loaded rechargeable lithium-Ion battery pack in the Bluetooth ring scanner module can be replaced using one hand. No special tools are needed. The 3.7V, 750mAhH Li-Ion battery in the Bluetooth module is designed to power the Bluetooth module for 8 hours and remain in standby for approximately 24 hours. The Bluetooth ring scanner module does not have a power or on-off switch. When the battery is installed, the unit and its accessories are On. Remove the battery to power down or turn off the unit. Batteries are recharged in the Bluetooth Ring Scanner powered multiple-bay charger and the single-bay charger. Battery Low Condition When a battery low condition exists, the battery should be replaced with a fully charged battery as soon as possible. The ring device LED is amber when there is a battery low condition. The LED blinks amber for .25 seconds every 5 seconds until a Battery Dead condition occurs or the battery is replaced with a fully charged battery. The Bluetooth module beeper indicates a battery low condition by emitting 4 short high beeps until the battery is replaced or a Battery Dead condition occurs. Battery Dead Condition The Bluetooth module is Off (LED is unlit). The Bluetooth module reboots after a fully charged battery is inserted. A ring device must be connected to the module before a module reboot can occur. Pairing Bluetooth Devices Note: Bluetooth device connection (or pairing) can occur at distances up to 32.8 ft (10 meters) Line of Sight. Distances greater than the Line of Sight limit will break the connection. Arriving at the limit may cause unexpected beep and/or LED indications. When the connection is broken, the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module attempts to reconnect with a previously paired device for 30 seconds. Move the Bluetooth Ring Scanner Module closer to the target and a disconnected paired device will beep on reconnect. 2 - 10 When the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module pairs with another Bluetooth device, it means the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module can send serial data to the paired Bluetooth device. Bluetooth Ring Scanner module paired data is stored in non-volatile memory in the module and data is saved over power cycles. Paired devices automatically reconnect when power is applied. Bluetooth MAC ID Bar Code Label Locate the bar code label, similar to the one shown above, attached to the Bluetooth capable Honeywell mobile device. It may be on any side of the device. The label is the Bluetooth address identifier for the Bluetooth capable mobile computer. It must be scanned before pairing connection with the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module can occur. The bar code label on the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module is a bar code and numeric representation of the MAC ID of the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module. Scan Pairing Bar Code Help The MAC ID bar codes on some Bluetooth capable mobile devices are quite small. If you are unsuccessful using the ring imager when scanning a MAC ID bar code with a ring imager, change the ring imager’s default Smart Focus Mode to Near Focus by scanning the Enable Near Focus bar code. Ensure focus mode is changed back to the default value of Smart Focus after the MAC ID bar code read is successful. The Bluetooth module MAC ID label should remain protected from damage (rips, tears, spills, soiling, erasure, etc.) at all times. Connecting to a Bluetooth Device Method 1 Note: For the Dolphin 70e, you must start tnd configure EZ Pairing first. For more information see EZ Pairing in the Dolphin Power Tools 8.x User’s Guide for Mobile Devices with Windows® Embedded Handheld, available at www.honeywellaidc.com. Using the Bluetooth Ring Scanner assembly, scan the pairing bar code (Bluetooth MAC address of the device) on the Bluetooth device (e.g., handheld or vehicle mount unit). The Bluetooth Ring Scanner module initiates the pairing process with the Bluetooth device and the devices are paired. The Bluetooth Ring Scanner module’s Bluetooth LED flashes every 4 seconds. This is the recommended method for pairing. Note: An unpaired Bluetooth Ring Scanner will re-pair with the last device to which it was paired when it scans a regular (non-pairing) bar code. If the last paired device is not available, then the Bluetooth Ring Scanner will remain unpaired. In this case, scanning a regular bar code is equivalent to scanning the pairing bar code of the last device. The Bluetooth Ring Scanner will try and, if it fails, will remain unpaired. If the pairing succeeds, the data from the regular bar code is discarded. Method 2 Note: This method is not available for the Dolphin 70e. Using the ring scanner attached to the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module, and the bar codes in Bluetooth Module Programming, scan the Pairing Status (page 3-3) > Enable Slave Mode bar code. Using the Bluetooth host device (e.g., handheld or vehicle mount unit) access the EZ Pairing control panel by tapping the Bluetooth icon on the Desktop (or the Taskbar or the Control Panel). Open the Bluetooth Devices panel. Tap the Discover button to discover nearby Bluetooth scanners and printers. Identify the scanner you wish to pair with by matching the Friendly name (Scanner – [MAC ID]) with the MAC address label on the scanner. Doubletap the Friendly Name and select Pair as Scanner from the drop-down menu. Close the EZ Pairing application. Notes • Assumption is that the Bluetooth scanner parameters are at the factory defaults for the scanner. • When users can use any mobile device with any scanner -- When returning from a break or at the beginning of a shift all users should pair a scanner with their mobile device using either of the methods shown above. • When the scanner and mobile device pair successfully, the Scanner Wedge automatically sets Wedge Port 1 to be used by Bluetooth. If the mobile device is equipped with other integrated or tethered scanners, they must be configured to use a Scanner Wedge Port other than Port 1 if they are to be used when a Bluetooth scanner is paired. • When the Bluetooth Ring Scanner is paired to a device using a Bluetooth driver other than EZ Pairing, the Bluetooth scanner serial data should be managed in accordance with your other Bluetooth devices. 2 - 11 Connecting to a Generic Bluetooth Device 1. Using the ring scanner attached to the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module, and the bar codes in Bluetooth Module Programming, scan the following bar codes: • Restore Factory Defaults • Pairing Status > Enable Slave Mode 2. Using the ring decoder and the bar codes in the ring decoder-engine-specific chapter (e.g., SE955 Laser Bar Codes) configure the ring decoder to meet the requirements of the targeted generic Bluetooth device. 3. Using the generic Bluetooth device, and the device’s Bluetooth software, perform a Discovery of nearby Bluetooth devices. The Bluetooth Ring Scanner assembly is identified by the label “LXE Scanner – (MAC ID)”. 4. Using the generic device’s Bluetooth software, pair the devices.When the devices are paired, the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module’s Bluetooth LED flashes every 4 seconds. The generic Bluetooth device will receive serial data sent by the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module every time a bar code is read and decoded by the attached ring decoder. Clearing Paired Status Note: This method is not available for the Dolphin 70e. Using the Bluetooth device (e.g., handheld or vehicle mount unit) access the EZ Pairing control panel by tapping the Bluetooth icon on the Desktop (or the Taskbar or the Control Panel). Open the Bluetooth Devices panel. Locate the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module in the list of paired devices by comparing the MAC ID number in the list with the MAC ID bar code on the module. Doubletap the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module icon. The right-mouse-click menu appears. Select Disconnect. When the icon is red, select Delete. All devices in the Bluetooth Devices panel can be cleared (deleted) in this manner, if necessary. The deleted Bluetooth Ring Scanner module is excluded from the list the next time the Bluetooth Devices panel is opened. If you cannot disconnect/delete the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module from the generic device at the end of the work day, Contact your System Administrator for assistance. Removing / Replacing the Trigger Module Equipment Needed:Phillips screwdriver with a blade diameter of 1/8” (.4mm). Not supplied. Caution: Do not perform the following procedures if the ring bar code reader is tethered to a Bluetooth module containing a battery. There is a possibility the Scan button may be pressed inadvertently and the laser beam emitted. Do not touch, push on or brace your finger against the scan aperture at any time. Installing and removing accessories should be performed on a clean, well-lit surface. When necessary, protect the work surface, the mobile device, and components from electrostatic discharge. A 20-pak of full Trigger assemblies is available. Contact Customer Support (page 10-1) for the latest updates and accessories. Remove Finger Strap Assembly Fold the flexible liner back until the screw hole is visible. Rotate the trigger module until the black screw is visible. 5. Using a Phillips screwdriver with a blade diameter of 1/8” (.4mm) loosen the black screw counter-clockwise and set the screw aside in a safe place. 6. Remove the trigger module. Replace Trigger Module 1. Position the trigger module on the base of the Ring Scanner, making sure the empty screw hole is visible. 2. Find the tiny black screw that you removed previously. 3. Using a Phillips screwdriver with a blade diameter of 1/8” (.4mm) rotate the black screw clockwise until the trigger module is secured to the ring scanner. 4. Install the finger strap. 2 - 12 5. Removing / Replacing the Ring Finger Strap Assembly Note: Do not pull on the finger strap or the flexible liner to remove the finger strap assembly. This quick disconnect function is designed for occasional safety hazards and is not intended for daily removal. Using the Quick Disconnect Function, grasp the finger strap and pull the finger strap out and away from the ring scanner. Before attaching the finger strap to the trigger module, thread the finger strap first through the hinge, then under and over the pin next to the scan button. It should slide easily. Cleaning the Beam Aperture Note: These instructions are for components made of glass. If there is a removable protective film sheet on the beam aperture, remove the film sheet before cleaning and before first use. Keep fingers and rough, sharp or abrasive objects away from the beam aperture. If the aperture becomes soiled or smudged, clean only with a standard household cleaner such as Windex® without vinegar or use Isopropyl Alcohol. Do not use paper towels or harsh-chemical-based cleaning fluids since they may result in damage to the aperture surface. Use a clean, damp, lint-free cloth. Do not scrub optical surfaces. If possible, clean only those areas which are soiled. Lint/particulates can be removed with clean, filtered canned air. 2 - 13 How To Scan a Bar Code The function to use an imager like a camera (or for OCR decoding) is not supported. Using a Continuous Scan option, if available, to scan programming bar codes is not supported. The linear bar codes in this guide were created using Code 128 symbology. Your Bluetooth Ring Scanner has been set up by Honeywell to automatically read / decode Code 128 bar codes. Using the bar codes contained in this guide, you can change bar code reader system parameters or reset all parameters to their factory default values. It is important to use the correct bar codes when programming the: • Bluetooth Ring Scanner module (see • Ring Scanner (see • Ring Imager (see All bar code reader parameters are programmed into and stored by the bar code reader engine. If this guide is not in print form, locate the page in this electronic guide that contains the bar code you wish to use. Print the page on white paper using a 600dpi laser printer (or equivalent). Print the page containing the Reset and Cancel bar codes as well as the page containing the A – F and 0 – 9 number bar codes. Select the parameter you want to scan. If this guide is in print form, lay it flat on a table or propped up at an angle. Scan a Linear Bar Code Holding the beam aperture approximately 3 – 12 inches away from the bar code, aim the scan aperture toward the selected bar code. Refer to the bar code reader engine type in Decode Zones later in this guide for recommended decode ranges. Press the Scan button. Align the scan beam so that the bar code is centered within the beam. The beam must cross the entire bar code. Move the bar code reader towards or away from the bar code so that the bar code takes up approximately two-thirds the width of the beam. Refer to the recommended decode zones for the ring bar code reader engine if you are having difficulty with this process. Do not position the scan aperture exactly perpendicular to the bar code being read. In this position, light can bounce back into the scan aperture, and possibly prevent a successful decode. Good Read / Bad Read Indicators The scan On indicator illuminates (usually red) when the beam is on. Following a bar code scan and “good read” the indicator usually turns green and the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module beeps, indicating a successful scan. The host mobile device may also beep or play a WAV file while decoding the signal from the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module. The laser beam and scan On indicator automatically turn off after a successful or unsuccessful read and the bar code reader is ready to scan again. 2 - 14 Factors That May Impact Scanner Performance Successful scanning range of a bar code decoder is dependent upon many outside influences including size of the bar code, quality of the bar code printing, material the bar code is printed on, condition of the scan lens (scratches) and angle of the beam aperture relative to the bar code label. Any of these factors may result in having to re-scan the label from a different distance or angle. Bar Code Quality Check the bar code for marks or physical damage e.g., ripped label, missing section, correct size for the scanner being used, etc. In general, the bigger the bar code the further the distance from which it can be read. If the bar code is smaller than the specified size for the scanner being used, the distance, in almost all cases, will shrink. Large bar codes can be scanned at the maximum distance. Hold the scanner closer to small bar codes (or with bars that are very close together). Do not position the scanner exactly perpendicular to the bar code being scanned. In this position, light can bounce back into the scan aperture, and possibly prevent a successful decode. Bar Code Source Using a graphics program to clip/copy a bar code from an online file (e.g., Adobe, Word) will copy the bar code at your monitor's dot per inch setting, a level too low for successful bar code scanning. Copy a Bar Code -- Use your browser's right-click menu to download an individual bar code using the Save Picture As option. Save the picture to a location on your computer's hard drive. The individual bar code can be added, as a file, to any delivery vehicle e.g., email, Word document. Bar Code Symbology Bar codes such as UPC codes and Code 128 are more complex than Code 39 and Interleaved 2 of 5. When attempting to get the maximum read distance possible, particularly with reflective labels, use Code 39. The use of Code 128 or other more complex symbologies will almost always result in a reduction in maximum read distance. Scanner maximum distances (from Decode Zones) when symbologies other than Code 39 are used are not supported. Lens Damage A scratched scan beam aperture can impact read rates and distances. Beam apertures should be inspected frequently, particularly if scanning quality or distances get worse over time. Ambient Lighting High ambient conditions, particularly outdoor environments, will produce enough light to somewhat “blind” the scanner. This will result in shorter read distances. Temperature While small deviations from room temperature will have no impact on scanner performance, severe conditions like those found in freezers will have a negative impact on both the distance scanners can read and the speed the read is acquired. Some scanner engines contain protection circuitry that shuts the scanner down in temperatures that exceed the recommended operating temperature. Bar Code Scanning Help Notes • Decrease decode time by disabling unused bar code types. The scan engine can store several different bar code symbologies at the same time. This means the Bluetooth Ring Scanner is able to scan a Code 39 bar code, then an Interleaved 2 of 5 bar code, then a different bar code without requiring a parameter reset. • The mobile device Scanner (or Data Collection Wedge) panel parameters are applied to the data resulting from successful bar code scans sent to the host (e.g., Thor VM2) for processing. The wedge panel does not affect or change the programming bar code parameter settings in this guide. • After scanning the Reset All to default (or equivalent) bar code with the tethered ring scanner, the next step is to open the Scanner (or Data Collection Wedge) panel on the host, click the OK button and then close the panel. This action will synchronize all scanner formats. 2 - 15 Issue: Bar codes on the printed page are too compact to be scanned, especially with a long range scanner. Solution 1 - Printing Adobe Acrobat PDF File Pages: When printing pages from an Adobe Acrobat PDF file, there is a difference between laser printer types and how they handle some Adobe Acrobat print functions – specifically, the “shrink to fit” option on the Print Options screen. Before clicking Print, make sure the “Shrink oversized pages to paper size” checkbox is unchecked. If the bar code is still too small to be read by the scanner engine, run the printed page through the laser printer again using the laser printer’s Zoom feature until the bar code is large enough to scan satisfactorily. When printing pages from an on-line Web page, run the printed page through a laser copier using the laser copier's Zoom feature until the bar code is large enough to scan satisfactorily. Solution 2 - Printing from a Browser Page: Use the Print button on the browser menu. Bar codes must be printed at 600 dots per inch (dpi) before they can be successfully scanned with a bar code reader. Miscellaneous Programmable Bar Codes Beep After Good Decode Audible scan progress indicators are generated by the scanner driver on mobile devices, not the bar code decoder engine. Use the Windows wedge panel options to set up the mobile device audible indicators. Beeper Frequency Adjustment Audible scan progress indicators are generated by the scanner driver on mobile devices, not the bar code decoder engine. Use the Windows wedge panel options to set up the mobile device audible indicators. Beep on This parameter is enabled on the Bluetooth Ring Scanner Module. There is no corresponding ring scanner programming bar code required. This parameter is disabled/inactive on host mobile devices. Beeper Tone / Beeper Volume Audible scan progress indicators are generated by the scanner driver on mobile devices, not the bar code decoder engine. Use the Windows wedge panel options to set up the mobile device audible indicators. Event Reporting Mobile devices aren’t designed to process events triggered by a bar code decoder engine. Events are processed by the operating system resident on the mobile device. Use Windows Control Panel options to set up the mobile device event reporting parameters. LED Mode This parameter is disabled/inactive as the scan LEDs are controlled by the scanner driver, not the scanner engine. 2 - 16 Return to Factory Default Settings Choose one of the following methods to restore factory defaults in the module: 1. Scan the Restore Factory Defaults (page 3-2) bar code. 2. To physically reset the module to factory default settings, remove the battery. Replace the battery while pressing the ring scanner trigger for 30 or more seconds and the factory default configuration is restored. Important: After resetting the module to factory default settings, the next step is to open the bar code wedge panel on the host mobile device collecting the scanned data. Click the OK button to close the panel. This action will synchronize all scanner formats. 2 - 17 2 - 18 3 Bluetooth Module Programming Bar Codes Introduction Bar codes in this section are designed to be read by a ring scanner or ring imager connected to the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module. This section contains programming bar codes to be used when programming the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module only. The bar codes were created using Code 128 ASCII. An asterisk (*) next to an option indicates the default setting. Honeywell scanners and imagers are setup to read Code 128 bar codes by default. • The ring scanner, that is a part of the Bluetooth Ring Scanner product, has an SE955 scan engine. Use 1D Laser Scanner Programming Bar Codes (page 4-1) to program the ring scanner engine parameters. • The ring imager, that is a part of the Bluetooth Ring Scanner product, has an SE4400 scan engine. Use 2D Laser Imager Programming Bar Codes (page 5-1) to program the ring imager scan engine parameters. Preparation Assemble the Bluetooth Ring Scanner components. Connect a ring decoder to the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module before inserting a battery into the module. The Bluetooth Ring Scanner module performs initialization with the Ring Scanner on bootup. A fully charged battery must be secured in the module battery well. A ring scanner or ring imager can be tethered to the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module. Either ring device can be used to read the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module programming bar codes in this section. When parameters are changed, and saved to memory, the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module LED blinks. Bar codes cannot be scanned until the LED color returns to normal mode. The scan engine manufacturer may offer more bar codes and options than are contained in this guide. Note that the bar codes in this guide are only those supported by Honeywell and the imagers or scanners linked to mobile devices that Honeywell manufactures or supports. Contact Customer Support (page 10-1) if you need help when using the bar codes in this guide. Module Programming Bar Codes To change a parameter value scan the appropriate bar code in this section. The new value replaces the default value in memory. An asterisk (*) next to an option in this section indicates the default setting.

Restore Factory Defaults Module Firmware Version 1. Connect the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module to a host device with a video display. Bluetooth Ring Scanner must be fully assembled (battery, ring decoder). 2. If necessary, open a text editor on the host device, make sure the cursor is in the open file, then scan this bar code. Scan this bar code, with either the ring scanner or the ring imager, to view the firmware version of the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module on the host device display. Module Firmware Version 3-2 Pairing Status Scan the bar code to enable pairing in Slave Mode for the Bluetooth module. Upon a successful scan, the Bluetooth module then disconnects from the paired device, deletes any saved or current pairing information and transitions into slave mode. When pairing as Master device is successful, the module emits a pattern of a short low beep and a short high beep and the Blue LED blinks slowly, every 4 seconds. When pairing as Master device is unsuccessful, the module emits a pattern of short low, short high, short high and short low beeps and the blue LED blinks fast, every 1 second. * Enable Slave Mode Enable/Pair as Master SAMPLE LnkB BAR CODE – DO NOT SCAN. Scan the LnkB bar code on the Bluetooth capable mobile device (e.g., Thor VM2) and the Bluetooth module is set to Master Mode. Slave mode is disabled. Note: Contact Customer Support (page 10-1) if the LnkB bar code is missing from the Bluetooth capable mobile device. Refer to the device specific user’s guide (e.g., Thor VM2) for LnkB bar code instruction. See Also: Role Switching (page 3-8) Note: The LnkB bar codes on some Bluetooth capable mobile devices are quite small. If you are unsuccessful using the ring imager when scanning a LnkB bar code, change the ring imager’s default Smart Focus Mode to Near Focus by scanning the Enable Near Focus bar code. Ensure focus mode is changed back to the default value of Smart Focus after the LnkB bar code read is successful. 3-3 Suspend Timeout To improve battery life, the Suspend timeout can be adjusted by scanning the following bar codes. A trigger press is required to wake the module from Suspend. Note: After the trigger press (to wake the module from Suspend) another trigger press is needed to scan a bar code. Disable Suspend Timeout Set Suspend Timeout to 15 seconds Set Suspend Timeout to 30 seconds Set Suspend Timeout to 1 minute * Set Suspend Timeout to 5 minutes Set Suspend Timeout 15 minutes 3-4 Set Suspend Timeout to 30 minutes Set Suspend Timeout to 45 minutes Set Suspend Timeout to 60 minutes Beep on Reconnect When Beep on Reconnect is enabled and reconnect is successful, the module emits a pattern of a short low beep and a short high beep and the Blue LED blinks slowly, every 4 seconds. When Beep on Reconnect is disabled and reconnect is unsuccessful over the reconnect interval, the module emits a pattern of a short high beep and a short low beep and the blue LED blinks fast, every 1 second. Scan the Disable Beep on Reconnect to disable audible notification for connect and disconnect. * Enable Beep on Reconnect Disable Beep on Reconnect 3-5 Reconnect Interval Timeout Scan one of the following bar codes to set the amount of time between attempts to reconnect with a previously connected Bluetooth enabled device. Reconnect Interval Timeout 15 seconds * Reconnect Interval Timeout 30 seconds Reconnect Interval Timeout 45 seconds Reconnect Interval Timeout 1 minutes Reconnect Interval Timeout 5 minutes 3-6 Reconnect Interval Timeout 10 minutes Reconnect Interval Timeout 15 minutes Reconnect Interval Timeout 30 minutes Reconnect Timeout Scan one of the following bar codes to set the amount of time the Master device will retry connection attempts before ceasing attempts. When the parameter is set to Off, reconnect attempts will continue until the battery in the Bluetooth module is depleted. Reconnect Timeout Off * Reconnect Timeout 1 minute 3-7 Reconnect Timeout 5 minutes Reconnect Timeout 30 minutes Reconnect Timeout 60 minutes Role Switching When Role Switching is enabled and the module has successfully paired with an Bluetooth capable mobile device as a master, the module will perform role switching with the mobile device and become a slave device. * Enable Role Switching Disable Role Switching 3-8 Authentication Authentication is the process of verifying the identity of a device with which a connection is to be established. When Authentication is disabled, any device can connect to the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module. When Authentication is enabled, the connecting device is required to enter the PIN value set by the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module before successful connection can occur. Enable Authentication * Disable Authentication Encryption Encryption is the process of encoding data for transmission between devices to ensure its integrity. Enable Encryption * Disable Encryption 3-9 Beep Volume The Bluetooth Module speaker volume can be reset by scanning one of the following bar codes. Volume Off Volume Low Volume Medium * Volume High 3 - 10 Ring Imager Focus Mode Note: This parameter is to be used for the ring imager connected to the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module only. The ring scanner will ignore this parameter if it scans it in error. Select a focus mode to control the working range of the imager. When Far Focus is selected, the imager is optimized to read at its far position. With Near Focus, the imager is optimized to read at its near position. Smart Focus toggles the focus position after every frame. There may be audible signals emitted from the module as Smart Focus toggles after every frame. Refer to the SE4400 Scan Engine Technical Specifications for typical working ranges for the Ring Imager decoder. The focus mode persists over a power cycle (remove and replace the module battery). This parameter reverts to the default setting after a module Reset (holding the imager trigger for 30 seconds after reinstalling the module battery). It reverts to the default setting after the Factory Defaults bar code is scanned. When the following Ring Imager Focus Mode parameter is not scanned but the Focus Mode parameter in chapter titled 2D Laser Imager Programming Bar Codes (page 5-1) is scanned, the Ring Imager Focus Mode setting reverts to Smart Focus Mode after a power cycle. Scan the appropriate bar code below: * Ring Imager Smart Focus Mode Ring Imager Far Focus Mode Ring Imager Near Focus Mode 3 - 11 Enter Friendly Name or PIN Code PIN Code 1. Scan the Set PIN Code bar code, then scan up to 16 alphanumeric characters to set the Bluetooth module PIN Code. 1. Scan the numbers, lowercase alpha and uppercase alpha bar codes. 2. When finished entering all characters, scan the Stop PIN Code setup bar code. 3. Scan the Stop PIN Code setup bar code to end PIN Code data entry. The PIN Code default is 16 zeros (0000000000000000). To reset the Pin Code back to the default, scan the Set Pin Code bar code and the Pin Code Default bar code only. Set PIN Code Pin Code Default Stop PIN Code setup 3 - 12 Friendly Name 1.

Do not scan the bar codes in this section with any other imager or laser engine. Note: A ring scanner does not have beep / audio capability. Assumption: The user is familiar with Windows on-screen functions. Scan engine manufacturers may offer more bar codes and options than are contained in this chapter. Note that the bar codes in this chapter are only those supported by Honeywell and the mobile devices it manufactures or supports. Contact Customer Support (page 10-1) if you need help using the bar codes in this guide. To change a parameter value: Scan the appropriate bar code in this section. The new value replaces the standard default value in memory. The following bar code symbologies are supported on the Bluetooth Ring Scanner: Symbology DataBar (RSS) GS1Chinese 2 of 5 Codabar Code 11 Code 128 Code 39 Code 93 Discrete 2 of 5 Interleaved 2 of 5 MSI Plessey GS1 Databar (RSS) and Composite Codes UPC/EAN UPC-A UPC-E UPC-E1 EAN-8 EAN-13 4-1 Aiming Modes There are many aiming “modes” for laser bar code scanners – aiming dots, aiming patterns, aim duration, etc. All aiming “modes” concern the length of time the beam is sent out, how wide the beam is and what happens when the timer expires. The terms are used interchangeably and may be confusing for the novice bar code laser scanner user. Note: Decoding algorithms released by the bar code engine manufacturer often change upon each new release. Programming parameters that were available at one release may not be available upon a later software release. Honeywell supports the programming bar codes for the specific engines in this guide only. SE955 Ring Scanner The scan engine can have it's aiming beam/aiming dot setup using these bar codes: • Use Laser On Time (page 4-14) • Aim Duration (page 4-7), and • Scan Angle (SE955 only) (page 4-17) Aiming Dot Help How to get an aiming dot when there is no “Aiming Dot” parameter: Set Aim Duration to .5 seconds and an aiming “dot” is sent while the scan trigger is held down. When the timer expires, the aiming beam widens and the bar code is read. Prefix / Suffix Ring decoder engine prefix and suffix parameters should not be set, changed, or reset using the Prefix and Suffix bar codes shown in this section. When the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module is reset to defaults, the prefix and suffix settings revert to their default values and need to be scanned again. Use the ScanWedge / ScanWedge NGW Power Tool (Dolphin 70e) or Data Collection / Scanner control panel (all others) in the host computer to store prefix and suffix values. Refer to the host user guide (e.g., Thor VM2) for information and instruction on setting up the following scanner parameters: • Enable/Disable decoding sounds • Imager LED Illumination • COM1 Serial Parameters • Code ID: AIM, Symbol, Custom • Symbology Settings including Prefix/Suffix • Control Character Mapping • Custom Identifiers • Pre-Configured Default Values Ring Scanner Setting 955 Default Set Default Parameter (page 4-6) All Defaults Scanning Options 4-2 Aim Duration (page 4-7) 0.0 sec Aiming Mode Not Supported Beeper Volume Not Supported Bi-Directional Redundancy (page 4-7) Disable Laser On Time (page 4-14) 3.0 sec.

If no custom defaults were set, scan Restore Defaults to restore the factory default values. Set Factory Defaults Restore the factory default values. If custom defaults were set, they are eliminated. Write Custom Defaults Store the current scanner settings as custom defaults. Once custom default settings are stored, they can be recovered at any time by scanning the Restore Defaults bar code. Restore Defaults Set Factory Defaults Write Custom Defaults See Also: Reset (page 2-10) 4-6 Scanner Parameters – General Aim Duration Note: For correct operation, reboot the mobile device after changing this value. When a scanner with an aim mode is triggered either by a Scan button press, or a Start_Decode command, this parameter sets the duration the aiming pattern is seen before a scan attempt begins. It does not apply to the aim signal or the Aim_On command. It is programmable in 0.1 second increments from 0.0 to 9.9 seconds. No aim pattern is visible when the value is 0.0. To set aim duration, scan the bar code below: Next scan two numeric bar codes that correspond to the desired aim duration. Times less than 1.0 second must have a leading zero. For example, to set an aim duration of 0.5 seconds, scan the bar code above, then scan the “0” and “5” bar codes on Keypad Number Symbols (page 4-72). If you make an error, or wish to change your selection, scan the Cancel bar code. Bi-Directional Redundancy Use this parameter to decide whether a bar code is successfully scanned in both directions before being decoded. Note: This parameter is only valid when a Linear Code Type Security Level (Redundancy Level) (page 4-15) has been enabled. The default for Security Level parameter is Level 1. Select an option by scanning either of the bar codes shown below. Enable Bi-Directional Redundancy * Disable Bi-Directional Redundancy 4-7 Disable All Symbologies Scan the bar code below to disable the decoding of all symbologies. Use this to simplify selecting a single symbology to decode by scanning this bar code, then scanning the desired enable code type bar code. Note that the decoder can still decode parameter bar codes. Data Options Note: SE955 ring scanner engine prefix and suffix parameters cannot be set, changed, or reset using the bar codes in this chapter. See previous section titled Prefix / Suffix (page 4-2). Prefix and Suffix Ring decoder engine prefix and suffix parameters should not be set, changed, or reset using the Prefix and Suffix bar codes shown in this section. When the Bluetooth Ring Scanner Module is reset to defaults, the prefix and suffix settings revert to their default values and need to be scanned again. Use the ScanWedge / ScanWedge NGW Power Tool (Dolphin 70e) or Data Collection / Scanner control panel (all others) in the host computer to store prefix and suffix values. Setting Default Prefix (P) Null Suffix1 (S1) LF Suffix2 (S2) CR Scan Data Transmission Format (page 4-9) must be set before selecting Prefix/Suffix values. A prefix and/or one or two suffixes may be appended to scan data for use in data editing. These values are set by scanning four bar codes (resulting in a four digit number) that correspond to key codes for various mobile devices. See the table titled “ASCII Character Equivalents”. If you wish to change your selection, scan this Data Format Cancel bar code: Prefix To begin setting Prefix values, scan this bar code: Next, scan four numeric bar codes that correspond to the computer keycode using the Keypad Number Symbols (page 4-72). If you wish to change your selection, scan Cancel on the Keypad Number Symbols page. Suffix 1 To begin setting Suffix 1 value, scan this bar code: 4-8 Next, scan four numeric bar codes that correspond to the computer keycode using the Keypad Number Symbols (page 4-72). If you wish to change your selection, scan Cancel on the Keypad Number Symbols page. Suffix 2 To begin setting Suffix 2 value, scan this bar code: Next, scan four numeric bar codes that correspond to the computer keycode using the Keypad Number Symbols (page 4-72). If you wish to change your numeric selection, scan Cancel on the Keypad Number Symbols page. Scan Data Transmission Format Note: Parameter Prefix and Suffix (page 4-8) should be set after setting this parameter. Use this option when you want to append a prefix and suffix to the decode data. Set this parameter by scanning one of the following bar codes. * Data As Is [Data] [Suffix 1] [Data] [Suffix 2] 4-9 [Data] [Suffix 1] [Suffix 2] [Prefix] [Data] [Prefix] [Data] [Suffix 1] [Prefix] [Data] [Suffix 2] [Prefix] [Data] [Suffix 1] [Suffix 2] 4 - 10 Transmit Code ID Character Default Value: None A code ID character identifies the code type of a scanned bar code. This may be useful when the scanner is decoding more than one code type. In addition to any single character prefix already selected, the code ID character is inserted between the prefix and the decoded symbol. Scan one of the following bar codes to select either no code ID character, a Symbol Code ID character or an AIM Code ID character. Transmit No Code ID Character Transmit Symbol Code ID Character A UPC-A, UPC-E, UPC-E1, EAN-8, EAN-13 B Code 39, Code 32 C Codabar D Code 128, ISBT 128 E Code 93 F Interleaved 2 of 5 G Discrete 2 of 5 or Discrete 2 of 5 IATA H Code 11 J MSI Plessey K UCC/EAN-128 L Bookland EAN M Trioptic Code 39 N Coupon Code R GS1 DataBar Omnidirectional (RSS-14), GS1 Limited (RSS-Limited), GS1 Expanded (RSS-Expanded) 4 - 11 Transmit AIM Code ID Character Each AIM Code Identifier contains the three character string ]cm where: ]= Flag Character (ASCII 93) c= Code Character A Code 39 C Code 128 E UPC/EAN F Codabar G Code 93 H Code 11 I Interleaved 2 of 5 M MSI Plessey S D2 of 5, IATA 2 of 5 X Code 39 Trioptic, Bookland EAN e GS1 DataBar (RSS) m= Modifier Character The modifier character is the sum of the applicable option values based on the following table.

The time-out is set in 0.01 second increments from 0.01 seconds to 0.99 seconds. After scanning the bar code below, scan two numerical bar codes to set the desired time-out. To begin setting the time-out value, scan this bar code: Next, scan two numeric bar codes that correspond to the desired value using the Keypad Number Symbols at the end of this chapter. Single digit numbers must have a leading zero. For example, a value of 300 msec is selected by scanning the “3” and the “0” numeric bar codes. A value of 30 msec is selected by scanning the “0” and the “3” bar codes. If you wish to change your selection, scan Cancel on Keypad Number Symbols (page 4-72). The SSI Options bar codes are directed toward the host programmer when writing host/scanner interface programs for different hosts. Host Serial Response Time-out Host Serial Response Time-out Default: 2 sec This parameter determines the maximum time the decoder waits for an ACK or NAK before resending. Also, if the decoder wants to send, and the host has already been granted permission to send, the decoder waits for the designated time-out before declaring an error. The delay period can range from 0.0 to 9.9 seconds in 0.1 second increments. After scanning the bar code below, scan two numerical bar codes to set the delay. To begin setting the time-out value, scan this bar code: 4 - 19 Next, scan two numeric bar codes that correspond to the desired value using the Keypad Number Symbols at the end of this chapter.

A value of 0.3 seconds is selected by scanning the “0” and the “3” bar codes. If you wish to change your selection, scan Cancel on the Keypad Number Symbols page. The SSI Options bar codes are directed toward the host programmer when writing host/scanner interface programs for different hosts. Contact Customer Support (page 10-1) for technical help. Intercharacter Delay Intercharacter Delay Default: 0 msec Select the intercharacter delay option matching host requirements. The intercharacter delay gives the host system time to service its receiver and perform other tasks between characters. The delay period can range from no delay to 99 msec in 1 msec increments. After scanning the bar code below, scan two numerical bar codes to set the delay. To begin setting the delay value, scan this bar code: Next, scan two numeric bar codes that correspond to the desired value using the Keypad Number Symbols (page 472) at the end of this chapter. Time durations of less than 1 msec require a leading zero. For example, a value of 25 msec is selected by scanning the “2” and the “5” numeric bar codes. A value of 6 msec is selected by scanning the “0” and the “6” bar codes. If you wish to change your selection, scan Cancel on Keypad Number Symbols (page 4-72). The SSI Options bar codes are directed toward the host programmer when writing host/scanner interface programs for different hosts. Parity A parity check bit is the most significant bit of each ASCII coded character. Select the parity type according to host device requirements. Set this parameter by scanning one of the following bar codes. Odd Parity The Odd parity bit has a value 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that an odd number of 1 bits is contained in the coded character. Even Parity The Even parity bit has a value 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that an even number of 1 bits is contained in the coded character. 4 - 20 Mark Parity The parity bit is always 1. Space Parity The parity bit is always 0. * No Parity No parity is required.

Contact Customer Support (page 10-1) for technical help. This parameter offers control of the data transmission process in addition to that offered by hardware handshaking. Hardware handshaking is always enabled and cannot be disabled by the user. Scan one of the following bar codes to set software handshaking. Disable ACK/NAK Handshaking When this option is selected, the decoder will neither generate nor expect ACK/NAK handshaking packets. * Enable ACK/NAK Handshaking When this option is selected, after transmitting data, the scanner expects either an ACK or NAK response from the host. The scanner will also ACK or NAK messages from the host when this option is selected. The scanner waits up to the programmable Host Serial Response Time-out to receive an ACK or NAK. If the scanner does not get a response in this time, it resends its data up to two times before discarding the data and declaring a transmit error. 4 - 22 Stop Bit Select The stop bit(s) at the end of each transmitted character marks the end of transmission of one character and prepares the receiving device for the next character in the serial data stream. The number of stop bits selected (one or two) depends on the number the receiving computer is programmed to accommodate. Set the number of stop bits to match host device requirements. Set this parameter by scanning one of the following bar codes. * One Stop Bit Two Stop Bits The SSI Options bar codes are directed toward the host programmer when writing host/scanner interface programs for different hosts. Contact Customer Support (page 10-1) for technical help. Time-out Between Decodes, Same Symbol Default: 1.0 second Use this parameter to prevent the beeper from continuously beeping when a symbol is left in the scanner's field of view. To begin setting differing symbol timeout values, scan this bar code: Using the Keypad Number Symbols (page 4-72) section at the end of this chapter, scan two numeric bar codes that represent the desired interval, in 0.1 second increments. Valid values are between 0.0 and 9.9 seconds. Single digit values must be predefined by a leading zero. For example, to set a timeout of 0.5 seconds, scan the Timeout/Decodes – Same bar code, then scan the number 0 and 5 bar codes. If you wish to change your number selection, scan Cancel on the Keypad Number Symbols page. 4 - 23 Transmit “No Read / Decode” Message Use this parameter to decide whether a message is sent to the host when a bar code symbol does not decode. When enabled, and a symbol does not decode within either: • A scan button press activates the laser and decode processing, the processing continues until a scan button release, or • The laser decode processing continues until the Laser On Timeout is reached. • A “NR” (No Read) is transmitted to the host. Any prefix or suffixes which have been enabled are appended around this message. When disabled, and a symbol does not decode, no message is sent to the host. Select an option by scanning either of the bar codes shown below. Enable No Read * Disable No Read 4 - 24 Trigger Mode Note: The Bluetooth Ring Scanner Module with a ring scanner is designed to be operated in Host Trigger Mode. For best results leave the Trigger Mode default value unchanged for these devices. Use this parameter to determine when the laser is activated and decoding begins, how long the laser remains on and what determines the cessation of the laser scan and decode process. Trigger Mode Function Level A trigger pull or Scan button press activates the laser and decode processing. The laser remains on and decode processing continues until a trigger release, a valid decode or the Laser On Time-out is reached. Pulse A trigger pull or Scan button press activates the laser and decode processing. The laser remains on and decode processing continues until a valid decode, or the Laser On Time-out is reached.

GS1-128 symbols are distinguished by a leading FNC 1 character as the first or second character in the symbol. Other FNC 1 characters are used to delineate fields. When GS1-128 symbols are read, they are transmitted after special formatting strips off the leading FNC 1 character, and replaces other FNC 1 characters with the ASCII 29 (GS) control character. When AIM symbology identifiers are transmitted, the modifier character indicates the position of the leading FNC 1 character according to AIM guidelines. For example, ]c1 indicates a GS1-128 symbol with a leading FNC1 character. Standard Code 128 bar codes which do not have a leading FNC 1 may still be used, but are not encoded according to the GS1-128 convention. Standard Code 128 and GS1-128 may be mixed in an application. The SE955 autodiscriminates between these symbols, and can enable or disable one or both code types. 4 - 33 The following table indicates the behavior of the SE955 in each of the four possible parameter settings.

There is an inverse relationship between security and scanner aggressiveness, so be sure to choose only that level of security necessary for any given application. There are four decode security levels. Higher security levels are selected for decreasing levels of bar code quality. As security levels increase, the scanners aggressiveness decreases. Level 0 The default setting. Allows the scanner to operate in its most aggressive state, while providing sufficient security in decoding "in-spec" UPC/EAN bar codes. Level 1 Misdecode 1,2,7,8 As bar code quality levels diminish, certain characters become prone to misdecodes before others (i.e., 1, 2, 7, 8). Select this level upon misdecodes of poorly printed labels that are limited to 1, 2, 7 and 8. Level 2 Misdecodes not 1,2,7,8 Select this security level upon experiencing misdecodes of poorly printed bar codes and the misdecodes are not limited to characters 1,2,7 and 8. Level 3 Select this security level if you have tried security level 2 and are still experiencing misdecodes. Using this level is an extreme measure against misdecoding severely out of spec bar codes. This level significantly impairs the decoding ability of the scanner. If this level of security is necessary, you should try to improve the quality of your bar codes.

Scanning this bar code does not affect the mobile device’s operating system, wireless client or installed software (e.g., AppLock) settings. When the Parameter Scanning parameter is disabled, the scan engine can still scan the Set All Defaults bar code. Default value of Parameter Scanning is Enable. When parameters are changed, the new value replaces the standard default value in memory. Set All Defaults Cancel See Pre-Configured Defaults (page 5-1) for an alphabetical listing of all default values. See Also: Reset (page 2-10) 5-5 Enable / Disable Parameter Scanning Use this parameter to decide whether scanner parameters can be set using the bar codes in this chapter. When this parameter is disabled, scan the Set All Defaults parameter bar code to enable parameter scanning. When disabled, either scan the Enable Parameter Scans bar code or the Set All Defaults bar code to reset the parameter. When enabled, scanners can be configured using the bar codes in this chapter. Select a mode by scanning either of the bar codes shown below. * Enable Parameter Scans Disable Parameter Scans Imager Parameters – General Except for the General imager attributes in this section that can be set by the end-user, imager programming attributes are set using the bar code wedge panel (Control Panel Scanner or Data Collection wedge panel) resident on the host mobile device. Bar code manipulation parameters assigned using the Bar Code Wedge panels are applied to the data resulting from successful bar code scans. Decode Session Timeout Default: 9.9 Seconds This parameter sets the maximum time decode processing continues during a scan attempt. It is programmable in 0.1 second increments from 0.5 to 9.9 seconds. If a label has not been decoded before this time expires and the session is terminated, the software regards it as a failed scan attempt. To begin setting a decode session time-out in seconds, scan this Decode Session Timeout bar code: Next, scan two numeric bar codes that correspond to the desired time-out using Imager Keypad Number Symbols (page 581). Times less than 1.0 second must have a leading zero. If you wish to change your number selection, scan Cancel on the Imager Keypad Number Symbols page. 5-6 Decode Aiming Pattern Note: This parameter only applies when in Decode Mode. See Operational Mode (page 5-11) Note: Scan Enable Decode Aiming Pattern to project the aiming pattern during bar code capture, or Disable Decode Aiming Pattern to turn the aiming pattern off. * Enable Decode Aiming Pattern Disable Decode Aiming Pattern Decoding Autoexposure Select Enable Autoexposure to allow the imager to control gain settings and exposure (integration) time to best capture an image for the selected operation mode. Select Disable Autoexposure to manually adjust the gain and exposure time (not supported in this version). This option is only recommended for advanced users with difficult image capture situations. * Enable Decoding Autoexposure Disable Decoding Autoexposure 5-7 Decoding Illumination Note: When this parameter is disabled, any LED Illumination parameter setting is ignored. Note: The decoder has three small bright LEDs situated above the scan aperture. Note: Enable this parameter for LED illumination upon every decode. The effectiveness of the illumination decreases as the distance to the target increases. Disable this parameter to prevent LED illumination. See LED Illumination (page 5-10). Select a setting by scanning one of the bar codes shown below. * Enable Illumination Disable Illumination 5-8 Focus Mode Select a focus mode to control the working range of the imager. When Far Focus is selected, the imager is optimized to read at its far position. With Near Focus, the imager is optimized to read at its near position. Smart Focus toggles the focus position after every frame. There may be audible signals from the ring imager as Smart Focus toggles after every frame. Scan the appropriate bar code below. * Far Focus Near Focus Smart Focus 5-9 LED Illumination Note: This parameter only applies for decoding if Decoding Illumination is enabled. If Decoding Illumination is disabled, all illumination is off for that mode, regardless of this LED Illumination setting. Note: Default: PL4407: Internal Illumination MS4407: External Illumination The imager has three small bright LEDs situated above the scan aperture. Internal LED illumination turns the LEDs on during scan mode. The effectiveness of the illumination decreases as the distance to the target increases. External illumination setting turns the LEDs off during scan mode. Internal and External Illumination turns the LEDs on during scan mode. See Decoding Illumination (page 5-8). Select an illumination setting by scanning one of the bar codes shown below. Internal Illumination External Illumination Internal and External Illumination 5 - 10 Operational Mode Default: Decode Mode In Decode Mode (the default mode), and upon a Scan button event, the imager attempts to locate and decode enabled bar codes within its field of view. The decoder remains in this mode as long as the Scan button is pressed or until a bar code is decoded. Use Snapshot mode to capture a high quality image and transmit it to the host. While in this mode the decoder blinks the green LED at 1-second intervals to indicate it is not in standard operating (decode) mode. In Snapshot Mode, the decoder turns on the laser aiming pattern to highlight the area to be captured in the image. The next trigger event instructs the decoder to capture a high quality image and transmit it to the host. A short time may pass (less than 2 seconds) between when the trigger is activated and the image is captured as the decoder adjusts to the lighting conditions. Hold the imager steady until the image is captured, denoted by a single beep. If a trigger event is not activated within the Snapshot Mode Timeout period, the decoder returns to Decode Mode. Use Snapshot Mode Timeout (not supported in this version) to adjust this timeout period. The default timeout period is 30 seconds. To disable the laser aiming pattern during Snapshot Mode, see Snapshot Aiming Pattern (not supported in this version). Use Video View Finder (not supported in this version) to enable Snapshot with Viewfinder Mode. In this mode the decoder behaves as a video camera until the trigger is active, at which time a Snapshot is performed as described above. In Video mode the decoder behaves as a video camera as long as the trigger is active. When the trigger is released the imager returns to Decode Mode. A Decode Mode bar code is not available. The default is as follows -- in other modes, when the scan button press or trigger is released the imager returns to Decode Mode. Snapshot Mode Video Mode Cancel 5 - 11 Power Mode Note: Mobile devices are designed to be operated in Low Power Mode. For best results this value should remain unchanged. Note: Default: PL4407: Low Power MS4407: Continuous On A parameter setting of Continuous On means the laser will not power down until the mobile device is powered off. A parameter setting of Low Power means the laser will enter low power consumption mode after each decode attempt. Pressing the Scan button will begin another decode sequence. See Time Delay to Low Power Mode (page 5-13). Select a Power Mode by scanning either of the bar codes shown below. Continuous On Low Power Presentation Mode Session Timeout This parameter, and the Presentation Mode parameter, are directed toward ring decoders that can scan a bar code that enters its field of view, determine a good read/bad read, then scan again. This parameter determines how long the ring decoder will attempt to decode a bar code before determining if it is a good read or a bad read. Presentation Mode means the ring decoder is always On and will scan bar codes that enter its field of view. Presentation Mode applies to Decode Mode only. See also Trigger Modes (page 5-15). Default: 2 Seconds To set the duration of the attempt to decode a bar code detected in presentation mode, scan the Presentation Mode Session Timeout bar code below. Next scan three numeric bar codes from Imager Keypad Number Symbols (page 5-81) to select a value between 1 and 255 that represents tenths of a second. Single digit numbers must have a leading zero. For example, to set 0.5 seconds, scan the Presentation Mode Session Timeout bar code, then scan the 0, 0, 5 bar codes from the section titled Imager Keypad Number Symbols. To correct an error or change the selection, scan the Cancel bar code and try again. 5 - 12 Time Delay to Low Power Mode This parameter sets the time the decoder remains active after decoding. The decoder wakes upon a Scan button press or when the host attempts to communicate with the decoder. This parameter only applies when Power Mode is set to Low Power. * 1 Second Delay 5 Second Delay 1 Minute Delay 5 Minute Delay 15 Minute Delay 60 Minute Delay 5 - 13 Time-out between Decodes, Same Symbol Parameter Default Value: 0.6 Seconds This option is used in presentation mode to prevent multiple reads of a symbol left in the ring decoder’s field of view. The timeout begins when the bar code is removed from the field of view. It is programmable in 0.1 second increments from 0.0 to 9.9 seconds. To select the timeout between decodes for the same symbol, scan the following bar code, then scan two numeric bar codes from the Imager Keypad Number Symbols (page 5-81) at the end of this chapter that correspond to the desired interval, in 0.1 second increments. Times less than 1.0 second must have a leading zero. If you wish to change your number selection, scan Cancel on the “Imager Keypad Number Symbols” page. 5 - 14 Trigger Modes Note: Mobile devices with ring decoders are designed to be operated in Level Trigger Mode for best results the Trigger Mode default value should remain unchanged. Default: PL4407: Level Trigger Mode MS4407: Presentation Mode Use this parameter to determine when the laser is activated and decoding begins, how long the laser remains on and what determines the cessation of the laser scan and decode process. Select a trigger mode by scanning one of the bar codes that follow. If you wish to change your selection, scan Cancel. Level Trigger Mode - A Scan button press activates the laser and decode processing. The laser remains on and decode processing continues until a Scan button release, a valid decode or the decode session time-out is reached. Presentation Trigger Mode - When the ring scanner detects an object in its field of view it scans and attempts to decode. The range of object detection does not vary under normal lighting conditions. This applies to decode mode only. In Presentation Mode the unit does not enter its sleep state. Host Trigger Mode - Triggering signal comes from a host command. Any actual Scan button press is interpreted by the scanner engine as a Level triggering option. Level Trigger Mode Presentation Trigger Mode Host Trigger Mode Cancel See also Presentation Mode Session Timeout (page 5-12). 5 - 15 Report Version 1. Connect the Bluetooth Ring Scanner module to a host device with a video display. Bluetooth Ring Scanner must be fully assembled (battery, ring decoder). 1. If necessary, open a text editor on the host device, make sure the cursor is in the open file, then scan this bar code with the ring imager. Transmit Code ID Character Default: None A code ID character identifies the code type of a scanned bar code. This may be useful when the imager is decoding more than one code type. In addition to any single character prefix already selected, the code ID character is inserted between the prefix and the decoded symbol.

To prevent this, select specific lengths (using MSI One Discrete Length and MSI Two Discrete Lengths) for MSI applications. 5 - 60 MSI Check Digits With MSI symbols, one check digit is mandatory and always verified by the reader. The second check digit is optional. If the MSI codes include two check digits, scan the Two MSI Check Digits bar code to enable verification of the second check digit. Check digits are not automatically transmitted with the data. Note: When Two MSI Check Digits is selected, an MSI Check Digit Algorithm must also be selected. Note: Set the number of check digits to be included with the bar code by scanning either of the bar codes shown below. * One MSI check digit Two MSI check digits Transmit MSI Check Digit When enabled, the check digit is transmitted with the data. Set this parameter by scanning either of the bar codes shown below.

Select higher redundancy levels for decreasing levels of bar code quality. As redundancy levels increase, the decoder’s aggressiveness decreases. Select the redundancy level appropriate for the bar code quality and then scan the appropriate Redundancy Level bar code. Redundancy Level 1 The following code types must be successfully read twice before being decoded: Code Type Code Length Codabar 8 characters or less MSI 4 characters or less D 2 of 5 8 characters or less I 2 of 5 8 characters or less Redundancy Level 2 The following code types must be successfully read twice before being decoded: Code Type Code Length All All Redundancy Level 3 Code types other than the following must be successfully read twice before being decoded. The following codes must be read three times: Code Type Code Length MSI Plessey 4 characters or less D 2 of 5 8 characters or less I 2 of 5 8 characters or less Codabar 8 characters or less Redundancy Level 4 The following code types must be successfully read three times before being decoded: Code Type Code Length All All 5 - 77 * Redundancy Level 1 Redundancy Level 2 Redundancy Level 3 Redundancy Level 4 5 - 78 Security Level The decoder offers four levels of decode security for delta bar codes, which include the Code 128 family, UPC/EAN, and Code 93. Select increasing levels of security for decreasing levels of bar code quality. There is an inverse relationship between security and decoder aggressiveness, so choose only that level of security necessary for any given application. Security Level 0 This setting allows the decoder to operate in its most aggressive state, while providing sufficient security in decoding most ?in-spec? bar codes. Security Level 1 Select this option if misdecodes occur. This default setting should eliminate most misdecodes. Security Level 2 Select this option if Security level 1 fails to eliminate misdecodes. Security Level 3 If Security Level 2 was selected and misdecodes still occur, select this security level. Be advised, selecting this option is an extreme measure against misdecoding severely out of spec bar codes. Selecting this level of security significantly impairs the decoding ability of the decoder. If this level of security is necessary, try to improve the quality of the bar codes. Select the security level appropriate for the bar code quality and then scan the appropriate Security Level bar code: Security Level 0 * Security Level 1 Security Level 2 Security Level 3 5 - 79 Intercharacter Gap Size The Code 39 and Codabar symbologies have an intercharacter gap that is typically quite small. Due to various bar codeprinting technologies, this gap can grow larger than the maximum size allowed, preventing the decoder from decoding the symbol. If this problem occurs, scan the Large Intercharacter Gaps parameter to tolerate these out-of-specification bar codes. * Normal Intercharacter Gaps Large Intercharacter Gaps 5 - 80 Imager Keypad Number Symbols The bar code labels shown below represent a numeric keypad, with decimal values 0 through 9. Each label should be scanned individually. Use these numeric value symbols to enter numeric input in the course of performing an imager engine system configuration. To correct an error or change a selection, scan Cancel then scan a desired bar code. 0 1 2 3 4 5 5 - 81 6 7 8 9 Cancel 5 - 82 6 Firmware Upgrade Introduction To update the ring scanner firmware, the ring scanner must be returned to Honeywell.

Symbols test labels are examples of optimum quality bar codes. As distance decreases the visible scan line also decreases (visible scan length = 1.8 x distance to label x TAN (scan angle / 2). The usable scan length is approximately 90% of visible scan line and must fully encompass the bar code label to be successfully decoded. On larger symbol densities of 20 mil, 40 mil and 55 mil, this affects minimum decode distance. + / - 5° pitch is used to reduce the inhibiting effects of spectral reflection (glare) near 0° of the scan head aspect to the bar code. Optimal operation is obtained at 2° to 15° pitch offset. Scan rate of 25 + / - scans second with bi-directional redundancy. The long range and advanced long range scanners support the aim-mode feature which allows generation of the laser for aiming prior to actual bar code decoding with a duration from 1 sec to 8 sec. The following “good scan and decode” ranges (decode zones) are related to a specific scan engine either integrated or connected to your mobile device. If you do not see your type of scan engine listed, you may be using a tethered Bluetooth bar code scanner or a serial port connected bar code scanner (these types of external scanners are not included in this list).

Report damage immediately to the carrier who delivered the carton. • Make sure the items in the carton match your order. • Save the shipping container for later storage or shipping. Introduction The Bluetooth Ring Scanner (BTRS) Module Battery Chargers are designed to simultaneously charge eight rechargeable Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) batteries. The time required for charging is dependent upon the battery internal temperature and condition. The Bluetooth Ring Scanner Module Single-bay charger is designed to charge one rechargeable Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery pack at a time. The battery charger should be located in an area where it: Is well ventilated. • Is not in high traffic areas. • Locates or orients the AC cord so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or subjected to damage or stress. • Has enough clearance to allow easy access to the power port on the back of the device. • Is protected from rain, dust, direct sunlight or inclement weather. This device is intended for indoor use only and requires an indoor AC power source. The charger is not approved for use in Hazardous Locations. This device cannot charge/recharge coin cell batteries sealed inside a mobile device, if any. This information is intended to familiarize the user with the safety and operating instructions necessary to use the Bluetooth Ring Scanner Battery Charger (Model 8650377CHARGER, 8650378CHARGER, 8650379CHARGER, 8650380CHARGER) to charge rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (8650376BATTERY) . This guide should be readily available to all users and maintenance personnel using this battery charger. Store the charger and batteries when not in use in a cool, dry, protected place. 8-1 Cautions and Warnings Warning: The Bluetooth Ring Scanner Battery Charger is to be used to charge an I.T.E. Recognized Battery pack manufactured by Helix Co., Ltd. (Model: HNP-40, LXE, P/N 161987-0001, rating 3.7V, 750mAh). Charging any other type of battery pack in the Bluetooth Ring Scanner battery charger is prohibited. Warning: Use the provided AC power supply, only, with the Bluetooth Ring Scanner Battery Charger. Using any other type of AC power supply is prohibited. Battery Charger • There is a risk of explosion if the Bluetooth Ring Scanner Li-Ion battery in the charging pocket is replaced by an incorrect type. Other batteries or battery packs may burst causing injury or property damage. • Do not insert any other type of Li-Ion battery in the Bluetooth Ring Scanner battery charging pocket. • Do not allow cleaning agents of any kind to contact the battery charging contacts; they may be damaged. If necessary, clean them with a soft-bristle, dry brush or compressed air. • Disconnect the charger from AC power by pulling the plug; not the cord. • Use care when inserting battery. Do not “slam” or slide the battery into the pocket, this could damage the charger. • Keep dirt and foreign objects out of the battery pocket. Do not short circuit any of the contacts in the battery pocket, this could result in injury or property damage. • Do not disassemble or perform modifications to the charger. There are no user serviceable components in the charger. Lithium-Ion Battery Pack • • • • • • • • • • • • 8-2 Dispose of used Li-Ion batteries according to the instructions for the type of battery. When not in use, lay the battery pack contact-side up in a protected environment. Do not store the Li-Ion battery pack in direct sunlight or anywhere the battery pack cannot cool down. If the Li-Ion battery pack is hot after removal from the Bluetooth Ring Scanner, allow it to cool at room temperature or in a cool air stream before placing it in the charger. Do not dispose of Li-Ion batteries into a fire. Burning will generate hazardous vapors and may cause the battery to explode. Failure to observe this warning may result in injury from inhalation of vapors or burns from flying debris. Do not immerse Li-Ion batteries in water or any other liquid. If batteries are immersed, contact Honeywell. Do not disassemble or perform modifications to the battery. There are no user serviceable components in the battery. Do not place the Li-Ion battery into a pocket or toolbox with conductive objects (coins, keys, tools, etc.). A Li-Ion battery placed on damp ground or grass could be electrically shorted. Do not store Li-Ion batteries above 140°F (60°C) for extended periods. Failure to observe these warnings could result in injury or damage to the battery from rapid discharge of energy or battery overheating. Electrolyte Burns. Be careful when handling batteries. If a battery is broken or shows signs of leakage do not attempt to charge it. Dispose of it! Lead and Nickel-based cells contain a chemical solution that burns skin, eyes, etc. Leakage from cells is the only possible way for such exposure to occur. In this event, rinse the affected area thoroughly with water. If the solution contacts the eyes, get immediate medical attention. Electrical Burns. Batteries are capable of delivering high currents when accidentally shorted. Accidental shorting can occur when contact is made with jewelry, metal surfaces, conductive tools, etc., making the objects very hot. Never place a charged battery in a pocket or case with keys, coins, or other metal objects. Charging Batteries New batteries should be charged fully before first use. The life and capacity of a Lithium Ion battery pack can vary significantly depending on the discharge current and the environment in which it is used. When a battery is placed in a charging pocket, the battery charger begins charging the battery. There is a slight delay while the charger evaluates the condition of the battery (ambient temperature, remaining charge, etc.) before charging begins. As with all batteries, expect to see a reduction in the total number of operations a fully charged battery pack can deliver as it ages. When the battery reaches end of life (end-of-life occurs after 500 charge/discharge cycles) it must be replaced. Battery packs do not need to be fully discharged between charge cycles. While charging, the charger and battery pack will generate enough heat to feel warm. This is normal and does not indicate a problem. Eight Bay Battery Charger Front View 1.

Do not “slam” the battery pack into the charging pocket. Damage may result. When preparing the battery pack for insertion into the battery charging pocket, hold the battery with its three charging contacts in line with the three charging contacts in the charging pocket (use the direction of the arrow on the battery label as a guide). If necessary, stabilize the charger with your hand before inserting a battery. Firmly press the battery straight down into the battery charging pocket. 8-6 Removing the Battery from the Charging Pocket If necessary, stabilize the charger with one hand before removing a battery from a charging pocket. Grasp the battery firmly and pull it straight up and out of the charging pocket. Interpreting the Charging LED The status of the charge operation is indicated by the color of the LED. RED - The battery pack is charging. GREEN - The battery pack is charged. Charge Timer The Single-bay charger does not contain a timer. The charger provides a soft charge mode for deeply discharged batteries, a fast charge mode and a constant-charge mode that maintains power levels in charged batteries. Battery charge time to full capacity is three hours. 8-7 Battery Charger Help The following is intended as an aid in determining whether the battery pack or the charger may be malfunctioning: Issue Cause Solution Battery pack does not fit in charging pocket. Different manufacturer's battery pack, or there is an object in the charging pocket. Check if the Bluetooth Ring Scanner battery pack has Honeywell part number 8650376BATTERY/161987-0001 on the label. If not, do not use. Remove the object from the charging pocket. No battery pack in charger, but any of the LEDs are on. Dirt or foreign objects are in the charging pocket. Unplug charger from AC supply. Remove any dirt or foreign objects from the charging pocket. If the LEDs continue to remain ON, the charger may be defective. Return charger to an authorized Honeywell service center. Charger is plugged into a live outlet, battery pack is inserted, but RED LED is OFF and no other LEDs are on, or all LEDs are off. Battery pack is not making contact with battery charge terminals in the charging pocket. Push battery pack in firmly. Do not “slam” the battery pack into the charging pocket. Charger is plugged into a live outlet, battery pack is inserted, but RED LED is OFF and no other LEDs are on, or all LEDs are off. Faulty battery pack. Replace battery pack. Charger is plugged into a live outlet, battery pack is inserted, but RED LED is OFF and no other LEDs are on, or all LEDs are off. New battery pack, same result. Contact Customer Support (page 10-1) for replacement options. When you first put a fully charged battery pack in the charging pocket, the RED LED comes on, indicating the battery pack is charging. During the first few minutes, the battery charger checks the battery pack for correct voltage and charge state. During this time the LED is RED and is continuously ON. After charging is complete, the LED is GREEN. There is nothing wrong with the battery pack or charger. Do not “top off” a fully charged battery pack by repeatedly placing it in the charging pocket. The battery pack may overheat and be damaged. LED is flashing RED at any pocket. Current could not be sourced through the battery pack due to age, exhaustion or damage to the cell(s). The battery pack does not communicate with the charger. Contact Customer Support (page 10-1) for battery pack replacement options. LED is flashing RED at any pocket. The charger’s timeout period has expired. Make sure that the battery pack temperature is within specification and retry charging. Contact Customer Support (page 10-1) if problem repeats, for battery pack replacement options. LED is flashing RED at any pocket. The battery pack voltage has not reached 4.2V within the timeout period and the charger has timed out. Contact Customer Support (page 10-1) for battery pack replacement options. 8-8 Issue Cause Solution Solid YELLOW / AMBER LED when battery pack is inserted in the charging pocket. The battery pack is too hot or too cold to charge. Remove battery pack from the charging pocket and allow it to adjust to room temperature. If the battery pack is left in the charging pocket, it will cool down or warm to a temperature upon which the charger will begin the charge cycle. However, depending on the temperature of the battery, it may take 2-3 hours to adjust. The cool-down / warm-up of a battery pack is much quicker if the battery is not in the charging pocket. Battery pack is inserted backwards. Remove the battery pack, line up the charging terminals on the battery pack with the charging terminals in the charging pocket and insert the battery again. Charger Cleaning, Storage and Service Cleaning Unplug the charger from the power source before cleaning or removing debris from charging pockets. Use only mild detergent with a slightly damp cloth to clean the outside of the charger. Do not use solvents or flammable cleaners. Allow the case to dry fully before using again. Do not allow cleaning agents of any kind to contact the charging contacts; they may be damaged. If necessary, clean them with a soft-bristle, dry brush or compressed air. Storage Remove all batteries from the charging bays and disconnect AC power before placing the charger in storage. It should be stored in a cool, dry place, protected from weather and airborne debris. Battery packs should be kept in a cool, dry place whenever possible. Do not store battery packs in direct sunlight, on a metal surface, or anywhere the battery pack cannot cool down. Do not leave the battery pack in a non-operating charger. The battery pack may discharge through the charger rather than hold its charge. Service There are no user serviceable parts in the Rechargeable Lithium Ion Battery or the Charger. Contact Customer Support (page 10-1) should your charger require service. Battery Cleaning, Storage and Service Cleaning The battery pack should not require cleaning unless it has become heavily soiled. Old or damaged batteries should be disposed of promptly and properly. The best way to dispose of used batteries is to recycle them. Battery recycling facilities recover the Nickel, Lithium or Lead from old batteries to manufacture new batteries. Use only mild detergent with a slightly damp cloth to clean the outside of the battery. Do not use solvents or flammable cleaners. Allow the case to dry fully before using again. Do not allow cleaning agents of any kind to contact the charging contacts; they may be damaged. If necessary, clean them with a soft-bristle, dry brush or compressed air. Storage Battery packs should be stored, charging contact side up, in a cool dry place, protected from weather and airborne debris, whenever possible. Do not store battery packs in direct sunlight, on a metal surface, or anywhere the battery pack cannot cool down. 8-9 Do not leave the battery pack in a non-operating charger. The battery pack may discharge through the charger rather than hold its charge. Battery packs may leak up to 1 mA current through the battery contacts when left in an unpowered charger pocket. Service There are no user serviceable parts in the Lithium Ion Battery Pack.
