Scanner types include:
•
Long Range: reads large 1D barcodes (55 mil) at long distances (up to 3m).
•
Standard Range/High Performance: reads damaged or low contrast regular 1D barcodes (5 - 55mil) at
medium distances (up to 1m).
•
Extended Range: reads regular 1D barcodes (5 - 55mil) at short to medium distances (1m), as well as
large 1D barcodes (e.g. 55 mil) at long distances.
•
1D Imager: reads regular 1D and PDF417 barcodes at short to medium distances.
•
EA11 2D imager: reads 1D and 2D barcodes including damaged and low contrast regular 1D barcodes;
smallest barcode at 5 mil with a minimum read distance to 2.8 in. / maximum read distance of 5.1 in.;
largest barcode at 40 mil with a minimum read distance of 3.1 in. / maximum distance of 32.4 in.
•
EA20X 2D imager: reads 1D and 2D barcodes including damaged and low contrast regular 1D barcodes;
shortest barcode at 6 mil with a minimum read distance of 6.1 inches / maximum read distance of 9.1
inches; longest barcode at 40 mil with a minimum read distance of 5.1 inches / maximum read distance of
49.2 inches.
•
SE4600LR imager: captures digital images for transmission to a decoder to decode a barcode of any
format supported by the decoding software. Uses laser aiming, LED illumination, and CMOS sensors to
capture barcode images over an extended range and under a wide variety of lighting conditions.
Basic Scanner Operations
•
Turn the hand-held on. Wait until the unit has booted up completely.
•
Aim at the barcode and press the scan key or the trigger. A scan beam and a warning indicator appear until
a successful decode is achieved or six seconds have elapsed.
Scanning Techniques
•
Hold the scanner at an angle. Do not hold it perpendicular to the barcode.
•
Do not hold the scanner directly over the barcode. In this position, light can reflect back into the scanner
exit window and prevent a successful decode.
•
Scan the entire barcode. If you are using a 1D or PDF laser scanner, make certain that the scan beam
crosses every bar and space on the barcode, including the margins on either end of the symbol.
•
If you are using a 2D imaging scanner, make certain the red, oval shaped framing mark is centered within
the barcode you want to scan.
•
When using imaging scanners, do not move the scanner while decoding the barcode. Movement blurs the
image.
•
Hold the scanner farther away for larger barcodes.
•
Hold the scanner closer for barcodes with bars that are close together.
