Scanning With the LS 6000
Scanning in Hands-Free
(Presentation) Mode
To place the LS 6000 scanner in the optional Hands-Free
Presentation Stand, slide the rubber "chin" support on the
scanner into the notch in the stand until the scanner is firmly
seated. The scanner emits a constant-on omnidirectional
pattern. To scan a bar code, bring the bar code anywhere within
10 in. (25.4 cm) of the scanner window for a successful decode.
Bar codes can either be directed in toward the nose of the
scanner ("presentation" scanning) or from side to side in a
sweeping motion ("swipe" scanning).
