Granit 1980I/1981I; Menu Bar Code Security Settings - Honeywell Xenon 1900 User Manual

Granit 1980i/1981i

The Granit 1980i/1981i scanners use a laser aimer (red dot) and a red LED (red box) to locate bar codes. Use the red LED
when scanning at a near distance (less than 11.8 inches / 30 cm) and center the box over the bar code. The laser aimer
(red dot) appears to the right of the center of the bar code. Use the laser aimer (red dot) when scanning at a far distance
(up to 50 feet / 15.2 meters) and aim at the center of the bar code. At far distances the red box may not be apparent. For
both near distance and far distance, the aimers can be positioned in any direction for a good read.
The aiming beam or pattern is smaller when the scanner 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 ele-
ments (mil size) should be read farther from the unit. To read single or multiple symbols (on a page or on an object), hold
the scanner at an appropriate distance from the target, pull the trigger, and center the aiming beam or pattern on the sym-
bol. If the code being scanned is highly reflective (e.g., laminated), it may be necessary to tilt the code up 15° to 18° to pre-
vent unwanted reflection.

Menu Bar Code Security Settings

Honeywell scanners are programmed by scanning menu bar codes or by sending serial commands to the scanner. If you want
to restrict the ability to scan menu codes, you can use the Menu Bar Code Security settings. Please contact the nearest techni-
