6-8 What If…
• If nothing happens when you follow the operating instructions:
- Check the system power.
- Check for loose cable connections.
• If the scanner does not scan a bar code symbol:
- Ensure that the scanning system is programmed to scan the type of bar code you are trying to
scan. Refer to Section 6-6-3.
- Check that the bar code symbol is not defaced.
- The scan head must touch and cover every bar and space on the symbol as shown below. You
can tilt the scanner forward or backward to achieve a successful decode. Simple practice quickly
shows what tolerances to work within.
