T4S2000 Scanner Instructions
Language and Memory Selection
When you first press the scan button, it should say “English + memory”. If it does not say this, keep the scan button pressed down when you first turn the scanner on until it says this. It will go through a list of options for languages and to have the memory function on or off. Make sure the memory function is in (+) or no data will be stored in memory. The memory will hold approximately 800 ID numbers. The next time you turn the scanner on, it will keep the setting you have selected. Do not keep the scan button held down the next time you turn the scanner on, or it will change the settings.

Scanning ID Tags
If there are no ID numbers in the memory, the scanner will next say “Press SCAN to read”. Press the scan button and it will now say “Reading”. If a number is detected, the ID number will come up on the scanner screen. If no number is detected, it will say “No tag found!”. Once an ID number is detected, or no tag is found, you can press the scan button again to begin a new scan. Each number scanned will be stored in memory as long as the memory function is on.

Battery
The T4S2000 Scanner runs off a 9-volt alkaline battery. When the battery is running low, the screen will show “Low battery”. It is recommended that you have extra batteries on hand with the scanner so you can replace the battery when needed.
