Scanning a Bar Code ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

To scan a bar code:

nAlways attach the safety strap to your wrist while scanning.

1.Point the scanner at a slight angle approximately four to eight inches from the bar code symbol.

2.Press the trigger to scan the bar code.

F A high-pitched beep indicates a successful scan.

F A low-pitched beep indicates an unsuccessful scan.

If you hear a low-pitched beep, change the angle of the scanner and press the trigger again. If the bar code still does not scan:

FMake sure the scanner window is clean. See "Cleaning the Scanner Window" later in this chapter.

FTry scanning another bar code to see if the scanner will read another bar code. If the scan is successful, this means the first bar code cannot be decoded. See Chapter 9, "Troubleshooting."
