Scan Mode
The scanner is to be mounted in a checkstand, usually flush with the countertop. It works
in three scanning modes to cater to different counter placement and operation
convenience:
Sliding mode: Users slide items over the counter surface without grasping or picking
them up.
Figure 14.1: Scanning Mode: Sliding
Sweeping mode: Users sweep items through the scan volume. Left to right or right to left
are both okay.
Figure 14.2: Scanning Mode: Sweeping
Presentation mode: Users “present” items to the scan window. The scanner can read
barcodes as long as the item is within the scan volume, with or without the barcode
facing the scan window.
Figure 14.3: Scanning Mode: Presentation
Facing barcode labels in the direction of scanning or toward the scan
window will optimize the scan rate.
