Reading Techniques
The sled has a view finder that projects a bright red aiming beam that corre-
sponds to the sled’s horizontal field of view. The aiming beam should be cen-
tered over the bar code, but it can be positioned in any direction for a good read.
The aiming beam is smaller when the sled is closer to the code and larger when
it is farther from the code. Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size)
should be read closer to the unit. Symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil
size) should be read farther from the unit. To read single or multiple symbols
(on a page or on an object), hold the sled at an appropriate distance from the
target, pull the trigger, and center the aiming beam on the symbol. If the code
being scanned is highly reflective (e.g., laminated), it may be necessary to tilt
the code up 15° to 18° to prevent unwanted reflection.
Setting Custom Defaults
You have the ability to create a set of menu commands as your own, custom
defaults. To do so, scan the
Set Custom Defaults bar code below before
scannning the menu commands for your custom defaults. If a menu command
requires scanning numeric codes from the back cover, then a
