3 READING BAR CODES

TAKE CARE OF THE 'HANDLING
INSTRUCTIONS' AND 'GET STARTED'
PRECAUTIONS.

Instructions
Point the bar code data collector to the bar code
and press the trigger key.
Fit the bar code in the laser beam from margin to
margin and pass the scanner to the bar code, as
shown in the scan position illustration.
The bar code will be read and the reading results
will be indicated.

A "Good Read" means that the scanner has
effectively recognised and decoded the bar code.
In most cases, the application program will provide
an indicator signal or a buzzer signal to indicate a
good read to the user.

The bar code data collector is a Class I laser
product conforming to the strictest laser safety
standards. However, we recommend that you avoid
looking directly into the laser beam emitter, or
pointing the laser beam directly into someone's
eyes.

Barcode reading problems
When the barcode can not be read, try the
following:
• Check that the width of the bar code label does

not exceed the width of the light beam.

• Change the angle between the bar code and the

scanner.

• Change the distance between the bar code and

the scanner.
