Scanning Barcodes

The IP-BC-BT Cordless Bluetooth Scanner operates from 3 AAA batteries that will

supply over 76,000 continuous scans or 100 scans/day for 8 months (16,000
scans). In order to conserve power the scanner enters standby mode after a
programmable a connect time of no activity and drops the Bluetooth connection.

The default connect time is 60 seconds. When scanning, the device wakes up and
the Bluetooth radio enters Discovery mode and waits for the host to reconnect.
When using the host detects the scanner in discovery mode it quickly re-connects

and transmits the data.

Proper scanning of barcodes is shown in the figure below. Note that the scan beam

crosses the width of the barcode.


Scan beam crosses the width

of the barcode and extends

beyond the barcode left and

right edges.
