DOS Portable Terminals

• Do not try to remove the screw.

2. Gently lift the laser module away from the top of the main part of

the Falcon.

• The module will not completely separate from the rest of the Fal-

con. Do not try to force the units apart.

3. Swivel the module around until the laser window faces the opposite

direction.

• The module can rotate in only one direction. Do not force it the

other way.

4. Press the laser module back into the main part of the Falcon, and

tighten the screw.

Using the Long-Range Laser

The Falcon’s optional long-range integrated laser uses a spotting beam to

scan bar code labels from a distance.

For the Falcon to read the bar code with its scanning beam, aim the spot-

ting beam at the center of the bar code.

The long-range laser may be operated in either of two trigger modes.

Spot Beam Timeout Mode

Spot Beam Timeout is the default mode of operation:

1. Press and hold the laser trigger for the laser to emit a spotting beam.

2. Aim this beam at the center of the bar code.

To swap the operations of the laser triggers after changing the laser

module’s orientation refer to page 52.
