3. Press the scan button. The red laser aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming. Ensure the bar code is
within the area formed by the brackets in the aiming pattern. The Scan/Decode LED lights red to indicate
that scanning is in process, then lights green and a beep sounds, by default, to indicate the bar code was
decoded successfully. Note that when the EDA is in Pick List Mode, the imager does not decode the bar
code until the crosshair touches the bar code.
