these sounds indicate the status of the scan and scanner. four settings are available for the tone of the beep. to change the tone, refer to the scanselect programming guide [mlpn 00-02186] or the help files provided with metroset2.
one beep
when the scanner first receives power, both leds come on together along with a beep (the green led only flashes).
after the scanner performs this startup sequence, the scanner is ready to scan.
when the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the green light will flash and beep once (if programmed to do so). if the scanner does not beep once and the green light does not flash, then the bar code has not been successfully read.
razzberry tone
this tone is a failure indicator. refer to failure modes page 13.
three beeps - after power up
when entering the program mode, the green led will flash while the scanner simultaneously beeps three times. the green led will continue to flash until the unit exits program mode. upon exiting program mode, the scanner will beep three times and the green led will stop flashing. when configured, 3 beeps can also indicate a communications timeout during normal scanning mode.
