Connecting the scanner
Connect the scanner to the dedicated connector on the USB cable and plug
the other end into the USB port of your PC.
Reading Tips
Press the scan button so that the red line aiming point is aligned with the
barcode and the barcode can be read from any direction.
If the barcode is small, make the scanner close to the barcode. If the barcode
is large, the scanner should be away from the barcode, so that it is easier to
read the barcode correctly.
If the barcode is highly reflective (owing to the surface coating, etc.), you may
need to tilt the scanner at an angle to scan the barcode successfully.
Precautions for Use
If the interface is "USB COM" (factory default setting is "USB HID"), please
note whether the console/device administrator has a device with COM and
LPT.
If there is a barcode that cannot be scanned, please first confirm whether the
scanner is enabled to read the barcode of the specific type. If the barcode
cannot be read even when the scanner is enabled to read the barcode of the
specific type, please provide the original barcode to the Customer Support
Representative in the form of photocopy or scanned image.
