PowerScan™ Retail PD953X-RT

Reading Parameters

Move the reader toward the target and center the aiming pattern 
and illumination system to capture and decode the image. See 

Using the PowerScan™ PD953X-RT on page 4

 for more infor-

mation.
The aiming system will briefly switch off after the acquisition time, 
and if no code is decoded will switch on again before the next 
acquisition. The illuminator will remain on until the symbol is 
decoded.
As you read code symbols, adjust the distance at which you are 
holding the reader. 

Good Read Green Spot Duration

Successful reading can be signaled by a good read green spot. 
Use the bar codes that follow to specify the duration of the 
good read pointer beam after a good read.
