RESETTING/INITIALIZING THE SCANNER
If the scanner’s display locks up or does not work properly after
you connect a power source, you might need to reset or initialize
the scanner.
Important:
If you have problems, first try to reset the scanner
(see “Resetting the Scanner” on Page 26). If that does not work,
you can initialize the scanner (see “Initializing the Scanner” on
Page 26); however, this clears all information stored in your
scanner’s memory.
