READING PARAMETERS
Move the reader toward the target and center the aiming
pattern and illumination system to capture and decode
the image. See
page 4 for more information.
The aiming system will briefly switch off after the acquisi-

before the next acquisition. The illuminator will remain on
until the symbol is decoded.
As you read code symbols, adjust the distance at which
you are holding the reader.
