  • Page 24: Using Vibrate Alert

    Chapter 2 — Scanning With the SR61T Using Vibrate Alert You can configure the SR61T to vibrate when it successfully decodes a bar code. This feature can be useful in these situations: • You are in a noisy environment, such as a busy warehouse, where it can be difficult to hear the beep.
  • Page 25: Scanning Bar Codes

    Long-term exposure to the laser beam can damage your vision. The SR61T contains either a 1D linear imager (SR61T1D), 2D area imager (SR61T2D or SR61THP), laser scan engine (SR61TL), or near- far range area imager (SR61TXR) to scan bar code data. The type of scan engine you are using and the type of bar code you are decoding determines the way you scan the bar code.
  • Page 26 To scan a bar code label with a laser scanner or 1D linear imager 1 Point the SR61T at the bar code label and hold the SR61T at a slight angle 15 to 25 cm (6 to 10 in) from the label.
