Scanning Bar Codes
Use the scanner to scan and enter bar code data. The type of scanner you
are using and the type of bar code you are decoding determines the way you
scan the bar code. The CK61 supports the scanning of 2D images. Plus, if
you are using an integrated handle or a tethered scanner, the way you scan
bar codes is different.
When you unpack the CK61, the Code 39, UPC/EAN, and PDF417 (if
supported) bar code symbologies are enabled.
If you are using bar code labels that are encoded in a different symbology,
you need to enable the symbology on the computer. Use the Intermec
Settings applet to enable and disable symbologies for your scanner. For help
on using the Intermec Settings applet, see “Using the Intermec Settings
Applet” on page 17.
Reading Distances
Typical reading distances are done in an office environment using office
lights (4 lux). Minimum distances are measured in the dark (0 lux). Both
reading distances are provided in respective scan engine integration guides.
Contact your Intermec representative for more information.
The minimum standard reading distances for CK61s built with integrated
scan engines are shown on the next several pages. When correctly mounted,
an exit window reduces reading distances by about 4% for all scan engines,
with the exception of the EL10 with its reading distances reduced by 25%.
Do not look directly into the window area or at a reflection of the laser
beam while the laser is scanning. Long-term exposure to the laser beam
can damage your vision.
