Scanning in Omni Mode
In this mode, an omni scan pattern provides rapid, orientation-free scanning. This scan
pattern is used with either hands-free or hand-held scanning
. .
To scan a bar code, direct it in toward the window of the scanner (“presentation” scanning,
see
Figure 2-7 on page 2-6 ) or from side to side in a sweeping motion (“swipe” scanning,
see Figure 2-8 on page 2-6 ).
1. Ensure all cable connections are secure.
2. Insert the scanner in the optional hands-free stand by placing the front of the
scanner into the stand’s “cradle” (see Figure 2-3 ) or place the scanner on a flat
surface (see Figure 2-4 ).
3. To scan a bar code, present the bar code and ensure the scan lines cross every
bar and space of the symbol. The scan pattern becomes steady when the scanner
detects the bar code. See
Figure 2-5 on page 2-5 for scanning in hands-free mode
and Figure 2-6 on page 2-5 for scanning in hand-held mode.
4. Upon successful decode, the scanner beeps and the green LED flashes
momentarily.
