Reading Skills of AS-9500
The engine has a view finder that projects a bright red or
green aiming beam that corresponds to the engine’s
horizontal field of view. The aiming beam should be centered
over the bar code, but it can be positioned in any direction for
a good read.
Linear bar code
2D Symbol
The aiming beam is smaller when the engine is closer to the
code and larger when it is farther from the code. Symbologies with
smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer to the unit.
Symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil size) should be read
farther from the unit. To read single or multiple symbols Linear
bar code 2D Matrix symbol (on a page or on an object), hold the
engine at an appropriate distance from the target, send a trigger
command, and center the aiming beam on the symbol. If the
code being scanned is highly reflective (e.g., laminated), it may be
necessary to tilt the code +5° to prevent unwanted reflection.
