It is written “SCAN” on the switch as shown in the figure below. You can start the scanning operation by pressing this switch as far as the read options of the scanner is not configured otherwise.
  • Page 30: Scanning Bar Codes On Moving Items

    Specifications Manual 12.4. Scanning Bar Codes on Moving Items NLB-1000 and RLB-1000 are capable of scanning low printing quality bar codes since the decoding process has a priority over the scanning process. While they can read the low quality bar code, it may take time for decoding. When a label of a certain level of quality attached to a moving item is read, the decoding time should be limited giving priority to scanning so that reading may be more successful.
