User Manual
Janam Technologies LLC Version 3, April 2017
Barcode Scanning 9—5
Scan Demo App
The Janam XT2 comes preloaded with the
Scan Demo
app that demonstrates scanning features of
the device. Note that a special Scanner SDK is available for the development of custom scanning
applications (inquire with your Janam sales representative).
Launch the
Scan Demo
from the
Demos Folder
. Position the XT2 over one of the
sample bar
codes
on this page. A range of 4–10 inches (10–25 cm) from the bar code is recommended. To scan,
either push one of the XT2’s two scanner buttons or tap the
Scan Start
button on the screen. Aim
the barcode imager beam at the target barcode. The aiming dot should be centered in the bar code
to achieve quickest and most accurate decoding. When the bar code is successfully decoded, the little
decode LED
in the upper lefthand corner flashes blue and the terminal beeps.
Upon a successful scan, the scanner decoder will report the symbology of the code as well as the
scan data. It will also report the success/failure rate, as well as read time data and statistics.
