not, press the triggerkey.

Approach
When holding the labeled product, point the barcode

label to the reading window of the scanner.

When holding the scanner, point the reading window of

the scanner in the direction of the bar code label.

Attention
At least one laser beam of the laser pattern should cover

the bar code label width from margin to margin. Reading
distances varies with the barcode label width.

Check the data at the connected computer device.

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.

When the read is incorrect you can try again, paying attention
to the instructions below.

General checks:
Make sure the scanner is installed properly.
Check the power supply of all devices.
Is the reading window of the scanner clean?
Are the bar code labels damaged?

Scanner does not operate:

Bar code label could not be read:
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.

the

scanner.

If you can not solve the problem:
Contact Opticon or your local dealer.
When the scanner needs to be repaired:

If returning the scanner, please use the original
packaging to minimise the chance of damage.
