INTRODUCTION

Product Overview

FocusBT™ is an Area Imager enabled with Bluetooth®wireless technology that

outperforms the competition by integrating advanced features to both hand-held

and presentation mode scanning such as FirstFlash®scanning, automatic aim

line, object detection and RangeGate®to optimize efficiency and productivity

while providing the freedom of mobility.

FocusBT has been designed with a removable battery pack for remote charging

to decrease down time caused by having a dead battery. Two battery packs are

supplied so the user can simultaneously scan while remotely charging the spare

battery. The benefits of this feature are 24/7 scanning and increased throughput

for all enterprise applications.

FocusBT is the industry leader in Area Imaging and the added benefits of

Bluetooth technology along with a rich feature set, make it the scanner of choice

for 2D wireless applications.

INTRODUCTION

Labels

Each scanner has a label located on the underside of the head. This label

provides the unit’s model number, date of manufacture, serial number, CE and

caution information. The charger, the USB Adapter and the battery also have

labels with important safety and compliance information. The following figure

provides examples of these labels and their locations.

Figure 2. Label Locations and Samples

Caution:

To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits connected to the scanner must

meet the requirements for SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) according to EN/IEC 60950-1.

To maintain compliance with standard CSA-C22.2 No. 60950-1/UL 60950-1 and norm

EN/IEC 60950-1, the power source should meet applicable performance requirements for a

limited power source.

INTRODUCTION

Maintenance

Smudges and dirt on the unit's window can interfere with the unit's performance.

If the window requires cleaning, use only a mild glass cleaner containing no

ammonia. When cleaning the window, spray the cleaner onto a lint free, non-

abrasive cleaning cloth then gently wipe the window clean.

If the unit's case requires cleaning, use a mild cleaning agent that does not

contain strong oxidizing chemicals. Strong cleaning agents may discolor or

damage the unit's exterior.

GETTING STARTED

Battery Tips and Cautions

Before the FocusBT can be placed in operation the battery pack must be

charged for a minimum of 8 hours. After the initial preparation charge of

8 hours, the battery will only require 6 hours to come to a full charge when it

gives a Low Battery warning (see page 8). Follow the steps on page 7 to fully

charge the battery.

Once charged, the unit is able to handle 5400 continuous first pass readings over

a period of approximately 9 hours. After 30 seconds of no activity the scanner

will go into a sleep mode to conserve battery life.

Caution
