   2. The scanner has disconnected with the USB receiver (It will make 3 beeps when you scan the normal barcode and data can not be uploaded). In that case please refer to the part of 'configure the channel'.
      
4. There's laser beam but scanner can not read any barcode or it makes 2 beeps after read a barcode.
   In this case, please charge power for the scanner immediately. Scanner can not read any barcode when it's under low voltage.
   
5. Scanner can not read 1D pharmacy barcode (Code 32)?
   1. Please refer to Symbology→ Convert Code 93 to Code 32
