Introduction
About the Scanner
Bridging the gap between man and machine, the Heron™ HD3430 2D Area
Imager brings high style along with technology to the modern point of sale.
Distinctive features such as side and top lights, polyphonic speaker and stylish
top covers, as well as Green Spot technology, characterize this innovative
reader.
Perfect for use as both a handheld and a presentation style reader, the Heron
imager is lightweight and ergonomically shaped for handheld use and includes
an auto-sensing stand in the package.
Developed to satisfy the most demanding reading requirements for linear read-
ing at POS checkout, the Heron 2D Area Imager is available as an all-in-one
multi-interface solution (RS-232, USB and Wedge).
The Heron™ HD3430 2D Area Imager has several new features. See
"Reading
Parameters" on page 85 for information on setting these features:
• The reader's attractive illumination (top and sides) selectively changes
color to indicate its status.
• The user has the option to use personal jingles (a short user-defined tune
uploaded via Datalogic Aladdin™ configuration software) instead of the
normal beep tone.
Using the Heron Reader
Heron readers automatically scan barcodes at a distance. Simply aim and pull
the trigger. Code scanning is performed along the center of the light bar emit-
ted from the reading window. This bar must cover the entire code.
Effective scanning is obtained by tilting the scanner with respect to the barcode
to avoid direct reflections, which impair the reading performance (see Figure 1A
below). A successful read is signaled by an audible tone or a jingle (previously
uploaded), plus a good-read green spot. The side and upper illuminators
become green (unless another color has been configured with Datalogic Alad-
din™ configurator).
Once the reader is correctly inserted into the stand, it is immediately ready to
automatically read any code present in its reading area without pressing the
trigger. Furthermore, a red pattern (central cross and four spots located in cor-
ners) is continuously emitted to facilitate the aiming of the bar code to be read
(shown in Figure 1B).
