Reading techniques
The imager has a view finder that projects a
bright green aiming beam that corresponds to the
imager’s horizontal field of view. The aiming
beam should be centred over the bar code, but it
can be positioned in any direction for a good
read.
The aiming beam is smaller when the imager 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 imager at an appropriate
distance from the target, activate 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
+5° to prevent unwanted reflection.
You will find the reading fields on page 5
