Laser Cautions
The PowerScan RF bar code scanner is certified in the U.S. to conform
to the requirements of DHHS/CDRH 21CFR Subchapter J for Class II
laser products (SR and LR) and Class IIIa (XLR). Class II and IIIa prod-
ucts are not considered to be hazardous. The scanner contains a Visi-
ble Laser Diode (VLD) at a wavelength of 650-670 nanometers and is
designed so that there can be no human access to harmful levels of
laser light during normal operation, user maintenance, or during pre-
scribed service operations.
CAUTION
In the unlikely event that a bright laser spot is expe-
rienced rather than a scan line, do not stare into the
beam or attempt to repair the unit. Discontinue
operation and return the unit to your dealer. Note
that when using Marker Beam Mode, a single aim-
ing dot is projected momentarily preceding a scan
line and is not considered a malfunction.
CAUTION
Do not open or otherwise service any components
in the optics cavity. Opening or servicing any part
of the optics cavity by unauthorized personnel may
violate laser safety regulations. The optics system
is a factory only repair item.
NOTE
The PowerScan™ RF scanner is required to be used
in conjunction with the PSC Base Station, Model:
PowerScan RF Base Station.
