Scanning with the Terminal

The terminal has an integrated scanner which collects data by
scanning bar codes. Refer to the PDT 8000 Series Product
Reference Guide for information on configuring your terminal for
scanning.
To scan bar codes with the terminal:
1. Launch the terminal's scanning application.
The scanning application is part of the Windows CE Software
Developer's Kit for Symbol Terminals, available at
http://devzone.symbol.com.
2. Aim the scanner at the bar code, as shown below (PDT 8056
shown).
3. Press the scan trigger. Ensure the red scan beam covers the
entire bar code. The green scan LED lights and a beep
sounds to indicate a successful decode.

Resetting Your Terminal

If your terminal stops responding to input, reset it.
Performing a Soft Reset
A soft reset restarts the terminal and retains all stored records and
entries.
Caution: Files open during a soft reset may not be retained.
DO NOT perform a soft reset if the terminal is suspend-
ed. Press the Power button to wake the terminal.
