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.
