Bar Code scanner (option)
The Senographe DS bar code scanner is a fast and accurate optional tool for scanning bar code sym-
bols in AWS applications. It is normally mounted on the side of the AWS Cabinet.
The scanner captures entire bar code symbols instantly. The integrated decoder then transmits the data
to the AWS just as if data were entered from the AWS keyboard.
Supported bar code symbol systems are:
•
Code 3 of 9 (standard & full-ASCII).
•
EAN 13.
•
Code 128.

bol (code 128) shown here:
2. Press the scanner trigger: the scanner red LED beam lights. The scanner has successfully read the
