Scanning Barcodes
1
Aim the scanner at the barcode.
2
Press one of the trigger buttons on either side of
the computer.
If the barcode scan application software has been set for use
with F1, F2, F3, or F4 buttons (using
- [Settings] - [Sys-
tem] tab - [Barcode Scanner] - [Buttons]), press the button
assigned for this function (
“Program Buttons” in the
Handheld Computer Operating Instructions).
The red scan beam for reading is emitted from the scanning window. Make sure the red scan
beam covers the entire barcode.
To Correctly Read a Barcode with This Computer, Observe the Following.
The scanning angle is a very important factor. The scanner may be unable to correctly read
a barcode if it is directly perpendicular to the barcode and the red scan beam is reflected
back into the scanner. Perform reading at the angle indicated in the figure. Set at a 15°
angle from the perpendicular position.
Perform scanning so that the red scan beam for reading intersects the barcode itself (in-
cluding at least 12.7 mm {1/2"} beyond each edge of the barcode).
Hold the scanner farther away when reading a larger barcode, and closer in when reading
a smaller barcode or a thinner barcode.
