Quick Start Guide

MINI Imager Series

P/N 83-116302 Rev E

Step 3 — Position Imager

• Place the imager and test symbol in a location with as little ambient light 

as possible.

• Position the imager at a focal distance between 

2” 

and

 6” from the symbol

.

• Tip the imager relative to the symbol to avoid glare from specular reflection. 

Avoid excessive skew or pitch. Maximum skew is 

±30°

; maximum pitch is 

±30°

).

• Symbols can be rotated (tilted) at any angle; however, for best results 

symbols should be aligned with the FOV (field of view). In the case of linear 
symbols, aligning the bars in the direction of their movement (“ladder” 
orientation) will minimize the chances of blurring and No Reads.
