Performing a Bar Code Read Operation
1
Press the [PW] key to turn power on. Hold the
Data Collector close to the bar code and
press the trigger key.
2
The reader port emits a laser to read the bar
code. The read indicator lights green when
the read is successful.
Important!
• If you have problems with the read operation, change the angle between
the label and Data Collector, or move closer and then try again.
• If the bar code is larger than the diameter of the Data Collector’s reader
port, try moving the Data Collector a bit farther away from the bar code.
• The Data Collector should be able to read a bar code from the
maximum distance of 38 centimeters on the forward-facing reader port
model and about 30 centimeters on the down-facing reader port model
under the following conditions.
