AC adapter’s or DC adapter’s barrel plug is fully
inserted into the scanner’s 6V 300 mA jack. See

power or the batteries might not be correctly
installed. Make sure the batteries are installed cor-
rectly and are good (if you installed alkaline batter-
ies) or fully charged (if you installed rechargeable
batteries). See “powering your scanner” on Page 5
for more information.

keys. How do I get the keys to work?

turn off keylock, press FUNC and KEYLOCK until

more information.
