Reading Techniques
The view finder
projects a red
aiming beam that
should be
centered over the
bar code.
Hold the scanner
over the bar code,
pull the trigger,
and center the
aiming beam on
the bar code.
The aiming beam is smaller when the scanner is
closer to the code and larger when it is farther from
the code. Hold the scanner close to smaller bar
codes, and farther away from large bar codes to get
a proper read.
If the bar code is highly reflective (e.g., laminated),
you may need to tilt the scanner at an angle so the
bar code can be scanned.

EN-4
To read PDF417 bar codes with a PDF-enabled
3800, hold the trigger down and move the scanner
up and down so the aiming line sweeps from the top
of the bar code to the bottom, and back up.
This ensures that the entire code is scanned.
Note: This only applies to a PDF enabled 3800/
3800g.
Standard Product Defaults
The following bar code resets all standard product
default settings.

following characters are not supported by the
scanner for countries other than the United States:
@ | $ # { } [ ] = / ‘ \ < > ~.

Trigger
The following bar codes will allow you to use the
reader in Manual Trigger mode (need to press the
trigger to read), Automatic Trigger mode (the beam
is always on), or Presentation mode (the reader is
activated when it “sees” a bar code).
Reread Delay
This sets the time period before the scanner can
read the
same bar code a second time. Setting a
reread delay protects against accidental rereads of
the same bar code.

code. Otherwise, scan the Remove Suffix bar
