Reading Techniques
The scanner has a view finder that projects a bright green aiming beam that 
corresponds to the scanner’s horizontal field of view. The aiming beam should be 
centered over the barcode, but it can be positioned in any direction for a good read.
The aiming beam is smaller when the scanner is closer to the code and larger when 
it is farther from the code. Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size) 
should be read closer to the unit. Symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil 
size) should be read farther from the unit. To read single or multiple symbols (on a 
page or on an object), hold the scanner at an appropriate distance from the target, 
push the button, and center the aiming beam on the symbol. If the code being 
scanned is highly reflective (e.g., laminated), it may be necessary to tilt the code up 
15° to 18° to prevent unwanted reflection.
Menu Barcode Security Settings
Honeywell scanners are programmed by scanning menu barcodes or by sending 
serial commands to the scanner. If you want to restrict the ability to scan menu 
codes, you can use the Menu Barcode Security settings. Please contact the nearest 
technical support office (see Technical Assistance on page xiii) for further 
information.
Setting Custom Defaults
You have the ability to create a set of menu commands as your own, custom 
defaults. To do so, scan the Set Custom Defaults barcode below before scanning 
the menu commands for your custom defaults. If a menu command requires
