Note: All samples were high quality barcodes and were read along a physical center line at a 10° angle. Default AGC settings were used.
*Data Matrix is used for conguration barcodes for the CR900FD, however additional licensing is required to enable full Data Matrix reading.
Expect other 2D symbologies to perform similarly to Data Matrix.

16.0 - CR900FD Maintenance
The CR900FD device needs only a minimum of maintenance to operate. A few tips are given below for maintenance suggestions.
Cleaning the CR900FD Window
CR900FD 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 CR900FD uses CMOS technology that is much like a digital camera. A dirty window may stop
the CR900FD 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.
