Using the Barcode Scanner (Optional)
NOTE: For enhanced applications and customization of the module, you can use the Barcode
Manager program. (For detailed information on the program, see the programs online
help.)
If your model has the barcode scanner module, you can scan and decode most
common 1D and 2D symbologies.
To read barcodes:
1. Start your processing software and open a new or existing file. Place the insertion
point (or called cursor) where you want the data to be entered.
2. Press the Trigger button (P1) on your Tablet PC. (The button function is
configured by G-Manager.)
3. Aim the scan beam at the barcode. (The scan beam projected from the lens
varies with models.)
Adjust the lens distance from the barcode, shorter for a smaller barcode and
farther for a larger one.
NOTE: Improper ambient light and scanning angle can affect the scanning results.
CAUTION: When or immediately after using the barcode scanner for a long time, do not
touch the lens area as the area might be hot.
4. Upon a successful scan, the system beeps and the decoded barcode data is
entered.
