Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive

2002/96/EC

This Product, and its accessories, comply with the requirements of the

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive

2002/96/EC. If your end-of-life Psion Teklogix product or accessory carries a label as shown here, please contact your local country representative for details on how to arrange recycling. For a list of international subsidiaries, please go to:

Restriction On Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive

2002/95/EC

Note: This directive pertains to those PowerScan

®

scanners with

PSC part numbers ending in ‘R’ (e.g. 0522xxxxxxxxxxx00R).

Scanners with part numbers ending only in a number

(e.g. 0521xxxxxxxxxxxx00) are designated for North America only, and are therefore exempt.

For more detailed information on specific parts, please visit the Psion Teklogix Environmental Compliance web page below, and e-mail us.

www.psionteklogix.com/EnvironmentalCompliance

What is RoHS?

The European Union has mandated that high environmental standards be met in the design and manufacture of electronic and electrical products sold in Europe, to reduce hazardous substances from entering the environment. The “Restriction on Hazardous Substances Directive

(RoHS)” prescribes the maximum trace levels of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, and flame retardants PBB and PBDE that may be contained in a product. Only products meeting these high environmental standards may be “placed on the market” in EU member states after July 1,

2006.

RoHS Logo

Although there is no legal requirement to mark RoHS-compliant products,

Psion Teklogix Inc. indicates its compliance with the directive as follows:

The RoHS logo located either on the back of the product or underneath the battery in the battery compartment (or on a related accessory such as the charger or docking station) signifies that the product is RoHS-compliant as per the EU directive. Other than as noted below, a Psion Teklogix product that does not have an accompanying RoHS logo signifies that it was placed on the EU market prior to July 1, 2006, and is thereby exempt from the directive.

Note: Not all accessories or peripherals will have a RoHS logo due to physical space limitations or as a result of their exempt status.

Disclaimer

Every effort has been made to make this material complete, accurate, and upto-date. In addition, changes are periodically added to the information herein; these changes will be incorporated into new editions of the publication.

Psion Teklogix Inc. reserves the right to make improvements and/or changes in the product(s) and/or the program(s) described in this document without notice, and shall not be responsible for any damages, including but not limited to consequential damages, caused by reliance on the material presented, including but not limited to typographical errors.

End User shall pay Datalogic the applicable list price for such licenses as of the date of such breach.

3.2 End User shall not sell, assign, sublicense, distribute, lend, rent, give, or otherwise transfer the Datalogic

Installation

Refer to Figure 1 and follow these steps to install the scanner:

Consult your host terminal manual to determine if power must be turned off before connecting peripheral devices such as the scanner.

1.

Should you need to disconnect the interface (I/F) cable from the scanner, loosen the Phillips head screw at the bottom of the handle and rotate the cable restraint clip away from the cable to release it. Reverse this procedure to connect the cable.

Do not attempt to pull the End Cap off, as this may damage the scanner.

CAUTION

2.

Connect the I/F cable to the proper port on the host terminal.

3.

If your system requires an AC/DC adapter to power the scanner, connect the adapter's power cord at the I/F connector. (Note: In most cases, the scanner uses Power Off the Terminal [P.O.T.], and does not require this step.) Contact your

Datalogic dealer if you’re not sure if an AC/DC adapter should be used with your system.

4.

Connect the AC/DC adapter at the wall outlet. (P.O.T. units skip this step.)

5.

Verify operation—point at a flat surface and pull the trigger.

A red beam should be visible. Scan a sample bar code and confirm that the scanner reads the bar code by beeping and/ or sending the data to the host terminal.

Power Supply

Models require either a Listed class II or class III with a Limited

Power Source (LPS).

For the safety certification to be valid, class III input power sources must be IEC/EN60950-1 (EN 60335-series, EN 60065 or relevant) approved.

Input: 100 - 240 VAC Output: 9 - 10 VDC

How to Scan

Figure 2 illustrates some tips to help get the best scanning results:

1.

The scanner must be pointed at a slight angle to the bar code.

Do not hold the scanner perpendicular to the bar code.

2.

The laser beam must cross the entire bar code. The scanner cannot correctly read if the entire bar code is not scanned.

Scanning Range

There are currently four different model types for this scanner.

Depending upon the model type of your scanner, you’ll need to hold the unit at a given distance from the bar code to achieve optimum scanning results. The following diagrams provide range of field information for each of the models when scanning grade A, Code 39 bar codes: Standard Range (SR), High Density (HD), Long Range (LR) and Extra Long Range (XLR).

NOTE

In the context of the illustration below, a "mil" represents the minimum bar code element width. Measurements are based on SR models set with the standard 28° scan width (as opposed to the Half

Angle setting of 14°). Reference the PowerScan Programming Manual for more information about the

Half Angle feature.

Troubleshooting

You can isolate problems with your scanning system by performing

these checks (refer to Figure 9):

1.

If your scanner’s cable is designed to receive Power Off the

Terminal (P.O.T.), it will not operate unless it is connected to a working host terminal that is powered on.

2.

Ensure that the interface cable is securely attached to the host. Consult your technical support manager or refer to your host system manual to identify the proper connection for the scanner.

3.

If an external power supply is used, verify that it is securely connected to the interface cable and AC outlet. Also ensure that the power supply is the correct voltage rating for your area.

4.

Check to see that the interface cable is securely connected at the scanner handle. Push the connector in to assure that it is firmly seated. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to ensure that the screw at the bottom of the scanner is fully tightened (but do not overtighten).

5.

If, after checking all connections, the scanner still fails to function properly, exchange the power supply with a known good power supply.

6.

Ensure that the scanner's interface type is compatible with the host terminal by consulting your POS system manual and/or the PowerScan Scanner Programming Guide.

7.

Verify that the bar codes you are scanning are of satisfactory quality. Bar code label verifiers are available from your dealer if you need precise reporting of bar code details. Bar codes that are damaged (wrinkled, smudged, or torn) may cause the scanner to read poorly or not at all. If bar code quality seems to be the problem, check to see if the scanner

will read a known good bar code (see Figure 7). You may also

want to modify the programmable setting for advanced

Quadralogic II

decoding (see the section in this manual

titled, Enhanced Scanning for Hard-to-Read Bar Codes).
