Scanning
1. Aim the scanner at the bar code.
2. Tap on the Scan button on the screen, or use one of the defined trigger
buttons to activate the scan beam.
The scanning beam is emitted from the top of the CSM 150. Make sure the
beam covers the entire bar code. A successful decode is indicated by a beep.
The bar code data is displayed on the screen. The type of symbology (e.g.,
Code 39) is also displayed.
CSM 150 Removal
When the CSM 150 is removed from the Visor, the following takes place:
•
Applications that were automatically installed when the CSM 150 was in-
serted automatically uninstall from the Visor application menu.
•
The application button selected for scanning returns to its previous des-
ignated function.
Note:
If the Visor is turned off: Removal of the CSM 150 (or any other
module) turns the Visor on.
Maintenance and General Care
Observe the following general tips when using your CSM 150:
•
Do not scratch the scanning window.
•
Your CSM 150 is not waterproof. Do not expose to rain or moisture.
•
Do not drop your CSM 150 or subject it to strong impact. Do not carry
your CSM 150 in your back pocket: if you sit on it, the scanning window
may break.
•
Protect your CSM 150 from temperature extremes. Do not leave your
CSM 150 on the dashboard of a car on a hot day, and keep it away from
heaters and other heat sources.
•
Do not store or use your CSM 150 in any location that is extremely dusty,
damp or wet.
•
If the surface of the CSM 150 scanning window becomes soiled, clean it
with a soft cloth moistened with a diluted window-cleaning solution.
