Bar Code Decoding
The MK3100 decodes any traditional retail 1D or 2D bar code presented in its field of view.
Imaging with the MK3100
When imaging, the MK3100 projects a red aiming dot which allows positioning the bar code within its field of
view. Ensure the bar code is within the decode range and and that the aiming dot is centered on the bar code.
The MK3100 beeps to indicate a successful decode.
