Chapter 1 — Learning About the SR61
SR61 Cordless Scanner User’s Manual 9
Scanning Bar Codes: The aiming and scanner beams that you see depend on
whether you have a laser scanner (SR61xL), 1D linear imager (SR61xV), 2D
area imager (SR61xA), or near-far range area imager (SR61xE).
To scan a bar code label with a laser scanner or 1D linear imager
1 Point the SR61 at the bar code label and hold the SR61 at a
slight angle 15 to 25 cm (6 to 10 in) from the label.
2 Pull the trigger, and direct the red beam so that it falls across
all bars in the bar code label.
Use this test bar code:
Code 39 Test Bar Code
*123456*
*123456*
Tip: Depending on your screen resolution, you may be able
to scan bar codes displayed on your computer screen with the
1D linear imager.
When the SR61 successfully reads a bar code label, the SR61
creates a single high beep and the status light briefly turns
green. If Vibrate Alert is enabled, the SR61 briefly vibrates.
3 Release the trigger.
