Scanner Setup
Step 1. Insert the Batteries
Unlock the battery cover using a screwdriver or coin to turn the lock to a horizontal position, then
remove the cover and install the batteries. You may also want to attach the tether at this time.
Replace the battery cover and turn the lock to a vertical position.
Only use NiMH rechargeable batteries. Never attempt to plug in the scanner using the
AC Adapter or USB cable if you have installed standard alkaline batteries.
Step 2. Attach the Tether (Optional)
After removing the battery cover, wrap the string loop of the tether around the inside part of the lock.
Replace the battery cover and lock it by turning the lock into a vertical position. If desired, attach the
tether to a lanyard or belt.
Step 3. Assemble the AC Adapter
If you plan to charge the scanner with the AC adapter, assemble it first. Choose the plug for your
region and slide it into the head of the adapter until it latches. Plug in the cable, making sure the USB
connector is oriented correctly. Alternatively, you can charge from a computer’s USB port.
Step 4. Charge the Scanner
The scanner must be fully charged before first use. Initial charging takes about 5 hours with the AC
adapter.

Using the Scanner
Basic Functions
Power On
Press and hold the small power button until the LED turns blue and the scanner
beeps twice (low-high).
Power Off
Press and hold down the small power button until the scanner beeps twice
(high-low).
Scan Barcodes
After connecting the scanner to your computer or device, open an application and
then place the cursor where you want to enter data. Hold the scanner about 4
inches (10 cm) from the barcode, then press and hold the trigger button. Make sure
the red aiming beam covers the entire width of the barcode. By default, the
scanner will beep and the LED will flash green to confirm that the barcode was
decoded and sent to the host device.
Do not use the built-in touch screen stylus on iPad, iPhone, iPod touch or other capacitive
screen devices.
Automatic Reconnections
After you power on the scanner, it will automatically try to connect to the last computer or device it
paired and connected to. Make sure the computer or device is in range with Bluetooth enabled. If the
scanner is connected to a computer or device and gets disconnected, it will try to reconnect for a few
minutes. Make sure the computer or device is on and in range. If the scanner cannot reconnect, you
will hear a long beep. Press the trigger button to restart the reconnection process.
Unpair the Scanner
If the scanner is paired with a computer or device, you should unpair it before trying to connect to a
new computer or device. Power on the scanner. Press and hold down the trigger and power button
until you hear 3 beeps, then release both buttons. The scanner will unpair and automatically power
off. The next time you power on the scanner, it will be discoverable.
