Keep the scan pattern parallel to the symbol rows. Upon successful decode, the scanner beeps and the LED turns
green. (For more information about beeper and LED definitions, see
Table 2-1 and Table 2-2 .)
Scanning Composite Bar Codes
Composite Code is a combination of a 1D symbol (GS1 DataBar, UPC/EAN or UPC/EAN-128) and a 2D symbol
(CC-A, CC-B or CC-C). When scanning a Composite Code:
• Keep the scan pattern parallel to the symbol’s rows.
• Hold the scanner as still as possible.
• Hold the scanner at an angle which does not cause specular reflection.
• Hold the scanner close for small symbols, and farther away for large symbols. Practice shows what works.
• Aim the scan line at the middle of the 2D portion. The scan pattern rasters and decodes both the 2D and 1D
portion of the Composite Code.
