Scanning Bar Codes

22
Do not look directly into the window area or at a reflection
of the laser beam while the laser is scanning. Long-term
exposure to the laser beam can damage your vision.
Avertissement: Ne regardez pas directement la réflexion d'un
rayon laser ou dans la fenêtre du laser lorsque celui-ci est en
opération. Si vous regardez trop longtemps un rayon laser,
cela peut endommager votre vue.
Use the scanner to scan and enter bar code data. The type of
scanner you are using and the type of bar code you are decoding
determines the way you scan the bar code. The CK30 supports
the scanning of 1D linear bar codes and 2D images depending
on your model of CK30. Plus, if you are using an integrated
handle or a tethered scanner, the way you scan bar codes is
different.
When you unpack the CK30, these bar code symbologies are
enabled:
• Code 39
• Code 128
• Datamatrix (if supported)
• PDF417
• UPC/EAN
If you are using bar code labels that are encoded in a different
symbology, you need to enable the symbology on the computer.
Use the Configuration Utility to enable and disable symbologies
for your scanner. For help understanding how to use the
Configuration Utility, see "Configuring the CK30 With the
Configuration Utility" on page 34.
The next sections describe how to scan a bar code label with the
integrated laser scanner, 1D linear imager, 2D area imager,
tethered scanner, or scanner attached to the serial port.
