Scanning Items
The scanner is mounted so its scan window is flush with the countertop. This
allows for maximum working space, and also permits the user to slide items over its
surface without having to grasp or pick them up. Bar codes are effortlessly scanned
when swept through the zone projected from the substantial scan window as
shown in
Figure 2a.
With FirstStrike
TM
decoding software, the scanner can read most hard-to-read
codes quickly and without excess orientation.

NOTE
Facing bar code labels in the direction of scanning, or toward the scan
window will optimize the scan rate. The arrow on the scanner’s top
cover indicates the direction scanned items should be moved (see
Figure 2b).
