Getting Started
• Switch on your computer and wait until the operating system has booted completely.
• Connect the barcode scanner via the provided cable to a USB port on your computer. The barcode
scanner will then beep.
• The computer will detect the new hardware and automatically install the required drivers.
• Open the document on your computer where you want the barcodes to be recorded. The bar code data
(for example, an EAN number combination) will be inserted where the cursor is blinking (for example, a
field in a spreadsheet).
• Position the reading unit at the front of the barcode scanner at an adequate distance and at a slight angle
to the barcode. Depending on the size and specification of the barcode, you may need to adjust the space
between reader and barcode individually.
•
The fixed-mount barcode scanner has an auto-sensing function. When you put a barcode in front of the
scanner, it will detect the change in brightness and automatically activate the scanning function.
•
If the reading process is successful, you will hear a beep & LED will flash briefly in green. The barcode is
then converted into the corresponding characters and transmitted to the computer.
Settings
A sheet with barcodes is included. You can use those to adjust the barcode scanner to your scope of
application. To configure the barcode scanner simply scan the respective barcode.
The barcode scanner can be reset to the default settings by scanning a special barcode, if necessary.
Tips & Hints
• The characters read by the barcode scanner are transmitted to the computer in a similar way to a
conventional keyboard. The cursor should be set to the position where you want to have the characters
inserted, before starting a scan.
• Make sure that the barcode to be read is clear. The barcode to be read should be fully visible and not
damaged.
• The distance between the barcode and the reader is chosen depending on the size of the barcode. The
smaller the barcode, the closer the reader needs to be to the barcode.
Care and Cleaning
• Disconnect the product from the mains supply before each cleaning procedure.
•
Use a dry, lint-free cloth to clean the product.
• Never use abrasive cleaning agents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions, since these could
damage the casing or even impair operation.
