Reading Techniques
The view finder projects an aiming dot that
should be centered over the bar code, but it
can be positioned in any direction for a good
read.
Hold the scanner over the bar code, press the
button, and center the aiming dot on the bar
code.
The aiming dot 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.
Standard Product Defaults
The following bar code resets all standard product default set- tings.
