Scanning
The DS3508 has a built-in, light-weight stand to easily accommodate both hands-free (presentation) and hand-held
scanning.
Presentation Mode
The optional Intellistand adds greater flexibility to scanning operation. When you place the digital scanner in the
stand’s “cup,” the scanner’s built-in sensor places the scanner in presentation (hands-free) mode. When you
remove the digital scanner from the stand it operates in its normal hand-held mode.
Figure 2-2
Scanning in Hands-Free Mode
To operate the digital scanner in the Intellistand:
1.
Connect the digital scanner to the host (see the appropriate host chapter for information on host connections).
2.
Insert the digital scanner in the Intellistand by placing the front of the digital scanner into the stand’s “cup” (see
Figure 2-2 ).
3.
Use the Intellistand’s adjustment knobs to adjust the height and angle of the digital scanner.
4.
Center the symbol in the aiming pattern.
5.
Upon successful decode, the digital scanner beeps and the LED turns green. For more information on beeper
and LED definitions, see
Table 2-1 on page 2-2 and Table 2-2 on page 2-4 .
NOTE Certain areas of the digital scanner’s handle may feel warm at times. This is normal.
