SCANNING BAR CODES
WAND SCANNING
Step 1:
HOLD THE WAND LIKE A PENCIL, tilted at an angle of 10 to 30
degrees from vertical.
Step 2:
TOUCH the wand tip to the WHITE SPACE before the label.
Step 3:
Move the wand QUICKLY across the label as if you were drawing a
straight line through the middle of it.
Step 4:
Begin and end your stroke in the WHITE SPACE. Maintain a
smooth, even stroke while scanning. You can read labels bi-
directionally (either left-to-right or right-to-left) and the data will
output correctly to your computer.
Step 5:
If you scanned the label correctly, you will hear a short BEEP.
When the "POWER" light turns GREEN the reader is ready to scan
another label.
