initially charged. Therefore the first operation to perform is to charge them in the appropriate cradle. See chapter 2 and the following paragraph "Charging the Batteries". 4.1 CHARGING THE BATTERIES Battery charge life depends on many variables but, under normal conditions, autonomy is more than enough for a day work. Information on the battery-charge status is provided by the dedicated icon on the display . The information provided by the icon is valid only when the terminal is not inserted in the cradle. Four different charge levels are given from a maximum value (all the icon segments full) to a minimum one which warns of pre-low- battery (icon empty and intermittently flashing). Recharging should be made after using the terminal until the batteries are nearly flat. CAUTION When the terminal display window shows the message "BATTERY LOW", wait until the it is turned off before inserting it in the cradle. Recharge the terminal by simply inserting it into its cradle; Datalogic S.p.A. recommends a minimum uninterrupted recharging time of eight hours. When using the NiMh battery a standard recharge does not allow taking fully advantage of the improved battery technology. For this reason, a recharging time of about 60 hours is advised to get the NiMh maximum capacity. When batteries are new, or have not been recharged for a long time, it is necessary to perform two or three charge and discharge cycles (with complete use) before the batteries are able to reach their maximum capacity.

positioned on the cradle changes from red to green. If using the NiCd battery pack, the LED color changes when 70-80% of the complete charge is reached. If using the NiMh battery pack, the LED color changes when 50-60% of the complete charge is reached due to the battery increased capacity. CAUTION If the terminal remains inactive for a prolonged period such as two weeks, it is advisable to download all the stored data onto a computer and extract the battery pack. 4.2 REPLACING THE BATTERIES CAUTION Before proceeding, ensure that the terminal is switched off and that the data it contains has been downloaded onto the host computer. To replace the batteries correctly, proceed as follows. 1- Turn over the terminal and remove the two battery cover screws.

as shown in the figure and extract the old battery pack. 3- Replace the battery pack, making sure the batteries are inserted in the right direction as indicated within the case. CAUTION Before inserting the battery pack into the terminal, ensure the battery polarity matches with the one indicated within the case. Figure 9 Figure 10 CAUTION When inserting the battery pack, first slide it towards the springs compressing them until the contacts at the other end are cleared (see Figure 9). Then, push downwards to insert the pack (see Figure 10). Be very careful not to damage the contacts when pushing downwards. 1 2 - + + - CONTACTS

numeric or alphanumeric data in binary form. The general format of a barcode symbol consists of a leading margin, start character, data or message character, check character (if any), stop character, and trailing margin. Within this framework, each recognizable symbology uses its own unique format. Baud Rate A measure for data transmission speed. Bit Binary digit. One bit is the basic unit of binary information. Generally, eight consecutive bits compose one byte of data. The pattern of 0 and 1 values within the byte determines its meaning. Bits per Second (bps) Number of bits transmitted or received per second. Byte On an addressable boundary, eight adjacent binary digits (0 and 1) combined in a pattern to represent a specific character or numeric value. Bits are numbered from the right, 0 through 7, with bit 0 the low-order bit. One byte in memory can be used to store one ASCII character. Decode To recognize a barcode symbology (e.g., Codabar, Code 128, Code 3 of 9, UPC/EAN, etc.) and analyze the content of the barcode scanned. EEPROM Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory. An on- board non-volatile memory chip. Data is maintained when power is not present. FLASH is a type of non-volatile memory that can be erased and reprogrammed in units of memory called blocks. It is a variation of EEPROM memory which, unlike flash memory, is erased and rewritten at the byte level, and therefore is slower than flash memory updating. Data is maintained when power is not present.

services such as network control, database access, special programs, supervisory programs, or programming languages. Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) A display that uses liquid crystal sealed between two glass plates. The crystals are excited by precise electrical charges, causing them to reflect light outside according to their bias. They use little electricity and react relatively quickly. They require external light to reflect their information to the user. Light Emitting Diode (LED) A low power electronic light source commonly used as an indicator light. It uses less power than an incandescent light bulb but more than a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). RAM Random Access Memory. Data in RAM can be accessed in random order, and quickly written and read.
