Fibox 4 & Fibox 4 trace Description of the Fibox 4 & Fibox 4 trace
2.5 Barcode Reader
The integrated barcode reader on the top panel of the Fibox 4 & Fibox 4 trace facilitates
sensor handling and management. The barcode reader can be activated in different menus or
submenus. As soon as the barcode reader is activated place the Fibox 4 / Fibox 4 trace about
10 cm from the respective sensor barcode; the target cross has to be aimed at the barcode.
Reducing or increasing the distance between barcode and barcode reader can speed up the
scanning process. A notification window opens on the screen showing the message “Sensor
successfully scanned!” when the scanning process is done. In case the scanning was not
successful the screen shows the message “No Barcode recognized”.
!
If the battery symbol in the status bar (see chapter 4.1) is flashing the battery status is
very low. The barcode reader will not work with very low battery. Connect the Fibox 4 /
Fibox 4 trace to the power supply or a PC / notebook and recharge the batteries.
