5.4.7 Reading codes
The optimum reading distance varies with the barcode type and size. Typically the optimum distance is
about 15 cm. With LED-sighting device a good distance is when the green aiming light covers the code area
from side to side. If the code is not read check the reader settings from your system integrator. Reading is
fastest when the code is read at right angle to the reader. Start code reading with scan button.
