Scanning Tips
When scanning, make sure the symbol is within the scanning range. See
Calculating the Usable Scan Length
. Align the bar code with the scan beam. The green decode LED lights to indicate a successful
decode.
Scan the Entire Symbol
•
The scan beam must cross every bar and space on the symbol.
•
The larger the symbol, the farther away the scanner should be positioned.
•
Position the scanner closer for symbols with bars that are close together.
Position at an Angle
Do not position the scanner exactly perpendicular to the bar code. In this position, light can bounce back into the
scanner's exit window and prevent a successful decode.
Trigger Options

presented.
