Using the barcode scanner
Your C5m/F5m is available with an optional integrated 1D and 2D barcode scanner that you
can use to retrieve information from barcodes. Many applications use barcodes for asset
tracking, identification, and process controls.
Supported barcode types
The C5m/F5m barcode scanner supports several different types of barcodes—a minimum
set of barcodes is enabled at the factory.
The following symbologies are enabled by default:
Other barcode types can be enabled by using EasySet software. To access EasySet, install it
by running setup.exe from C:\Motion\Software\EasySet.
To use the barcode scanner:
1. Open the application that you want to receive the barcode data and place the insertion
point in the appropriate field.
2. Aim the scanner lens at the barcode.
3. Press and release the B button on the front of the Tablet PC. Ensure that the scan beam
covers the entire barcode.
