Single Image Scanner Operation There are two link modes to accommodate different applications: Locked Link Mode and Open Link Mode. Scan the appropriate bar codes included in the Open Link and Locked Link Mode explanations that follow to switch from one mode to another. Default = Locked Link Mode. Locked Link Mode - Single Image Scanner If you link an image scanner to a base using the Locked Link Mode, other image scanners are blocked from being linked if they are inadvertently placed into the base. If you do place a different image scanner into the base, it will charge the image scanner, but the image scanner will not be linked. * Locked Link Mode (Single Image Scanner) To use a different image scanner, you need to unlink the original image scanner by scanning the Unlink Image Scanner bar code. (See "Image Scanner Modes" on page 1-5.) Open Link Mode - Single Image Scanner When newly shipped or defaulted to factory settings, the base and image scanner are not linked. By placing an image scanner into the base, they establish a link. Placing a different image scanner into the base establishes a new link and the old image scanner is unlinked. Each time an image scanner is placed into the base, it becomes the linked image scanner; the old image scanner is unlinked. Open Link Mode (Single Image Scanner) Override Locked Image Scanner If you need to replace a broken or lost image scanner that is linked to a base, scan the Override Locked Image Scanner bar code below with a new image scanner and place that image scanner in the base. The locked link will be overridden; the broken or lost image scanner's link with the base will be removed, and the new image scanner will be linked.
