used with regular ofce lighting. Accuracy= +/- 10%. Testing conditions may affect working ranges. Measured

from the front of the device in metric units then converted to Imperial units.

16. CR1500 Maintenance

17. Online Resources for the CR1500

The CR1500 device needs only a minimum of maintenance to operate. A few tips are given below for

maintenance suggestions.

Cleaning the CR1500 Window

CR1500 window should be clean to allow the best performance of the device. The window is the clear plastic

piece inside the head of the reader. Do not touch the window. Your CR1500 uses CMOS technology that

is much like a digital camera. A dirty window may stop the CR1500 from reading barcodes. If the window

becomes dirty, clean it with a soft, non-abrasive cloth or a facial tissue (no lotions or additives) that has been

moistened with water. A mild detergent may be used to clean the window, but the window should be wiped

with a water moistened cloth or tissue after using the detergent.
