CHAPTER 2: SETUP FOR WINDOWS CE

If you find it inconvenient or impossible to assign or use a

•
Install SocketScan Trigger from the installation CD. The software
must be installed separately from SocketScan.

Insert the In-Hand Scan Card into your Pocket PC.
•
Open the application that you want to scan data into.
2. Start SocketScan Trigger. Tap

3. The floating trigger button will appear
on your screen on top of the active
application.
Drag from the title bar to move the
trigger button to a convenient place on
the screen.
Tap the trigger button to activate the
scanner.

the Today screen. Tap this icon to open a pop-up menu with the
following options:
•
Tap
Scan Now
to activate the scanner as if you had tapped the
trigger button.

Tap
Remove Floating Trigger
to remove the trigger button from the
screen but keep the icon handy on the task bar. To restore the
