3.2 - Targeting

The CR1200 targeting implementation projects two LED-generated images to aid you in properly positioning and

focusing the reading operation.

Figure 3.2 graphically displays the field of view of the CR1200 reader and shows the areas of that field of view where

various codes can be read. Targeting the code becomes more important as the size of the code decreases and the

density increases.

The optimal distance to read a code is 3.8” (9.7 centimeters). The LED targeting guides projected by the CR1200 help

to detect this optimal reading distance.
