Laser Timeout
The laser timeout feature sets the time for switching the visible laser
diodes (VLDs) off if the scanner is idle. Using this feature can prolong the
life of the VLDs.
To set the Laser Timeout:
1. Scan the SWITCH bar code.
2. Scan your selection from the bar codes below. You’ll need to cover
any unused bar codes on this and the facing page to ensure that
the scanner reads only the bar code you intend to scan.
3. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH
bar code.
LASER TIMEOUT = 5 MINUTES
