Scanning PDF417 Bar Codes
The 2-D scanning PDT 8100 terminal supports PDF417 bar code scanning. The raster pattern
has multiple scanning rows to accommodate the PDF417 symbol's multiple rows.
1. Point the scanner at the bar code and press the trigger.
2. Center the aiming pattern on the bar code.
3. As the raster pattern spreads, keep the pattern horizontal to the bar code.
4. The terminal indicates a successful scan by changing the LED from red to green,
beeping one or more times, and/or displaying the bar code data on the screen.
If the PDF417 symbol is too "tall" where the vertical scan pattern is not high enough to cover it,
move the terminal slowly up and down, keeping the beam horizontal to the rows, until the
pattern scans the entire symbol.
Resetting Your PDT 8100 Terminal
If your PDT 8100 terminal stops responding to input, reset it.
