Reading Techniques

The scan engine has a view finder that projects a bright red aiming square. The aiming beam should be centered over the bar
code, but it can also be positioned outside of the center for a good read.
Linear bar code 2D Matrix symbol
The aiming beam is smaller when the scan 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 (on a page or on an object), hold the scan engine at an
appropriate distance from the target, pull the trigger, 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 up 15° to 18° to prevent unwanted reflection.

Menu Bar Code Security Settings

Honeywell scan engines are programmed by scanning menu bar codes or by sending serial commands to the scan engine. If
you want to restrict the ability to scan menu codes, you can use the Menu Bar Code Security settings. Contact your Honeywell
OEM representative for more information.

Setting Custom Defaults

You have the ability to create a set of menu commands as your own, custom defaults. To do so, scan the Set Custom Defaults
bar code below before scanning the menu commands for your custom defaults. If a menu command requires scanning numeric
codes from the back cover, then a Save code, that entire sequence will be saved to your custom defaults. When you have
entered all the commands you want to save for your custom defaults, scan the Save Custom Defaults bar code.
Set Custom Defaults
Save Custom Defaults
You may have a series of custom settings and want to correct a single setting. To do so, just scan the new setting to overwrite
the old one. For example, if you had previously saved the setting for Beeper Volume at Low to your custom defaults, and decide
