Scanning tips
Figure illustrates some tips to help get the best scanning results:
1. The scanner must be pointed at a slight angle to the bar code.
Do not hold the scanner perpendicular to the bar code.
2. The laser beam must cross the entire bar code. The scanner
cannot correctly read if the entire bar code is not scanned.

1. Cable connection
*USB interface scanner installation
Make sure that the scanner has the correct cable for your system. Connect the
cable to the USB port of the PC or POS.
*RS-232C interface scanner installation
Make sure that there is a power supply to the scanner (If necessary). Some
devices deliver power through serial port using SUB D9 connector on 9th pin
(Chapter 20)
Connect the cable to the RS-232C port of the PC or POS. Make sure that host
device should have communication program (Xcom, procomm, Hyperterminal)
before transmitting data.
Note: Use only connection cables that are packed with LBR 100 scanner.
2. Scanner handling
Manual activation. Aim the scanner at the bar code. Press and hold the button
down to activate scan and transmit the bar code. After successful reading of
bar code audible feedback will indicate status, along with the light indication.

3. Setup procedure
The general procedure to program is as follows:
Scan the command symbol “Program”,
Scan one or more parameters,
Scan the command symbol “End” to close procedure.
Example 1. To set RS 232 parameters 9600,N,8,1 (Page 7 - 9)
Scan the barcode “Program”,
Scan “9600” “N” ”8” “1”,
Scan “End”.
Example 2. To set additional digit for UPC/EAN (Page 28)
Scan “Program”,
Scan “Addenda 5 digit Enable”,
Scan “End”.
