When you turn the scanner on, the Power indicator is lit. This light remains lit as long as power is
provided to the scanner. When first turned on, the scanner performs a Power On Self Test (POST)
diagnostic. The Ready indicator flashes during the POST diagnostic, then should remain steadily lit.
If the scanner fails the POST diagnostic, or encounters a problem with use, the Ready indicator
remains flashing. Refer to the Appendix for tro ulotestlooting information.
