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.
