Using the PowerScan™ PM9100
The PowerScan™ PM9100 normally functions by capturing
and decoding barcodes. The reader is equipped with an
aiming system which helps to aim the target.

PowerScan™ PM9100 provides an aiming system. If
enabled, a partial trigger press produces a flashing scan

from the reading window. This line must cross the entire
code. The best reading angles are indicated in the figure
