Scanning Items: Model 2200VS
Item bar codes are scanned by either...
• sliding or pushing items through the scan volume in a right-to-left
or left-to-right motion (see
Figure 1a). This is known as “Sweep”
scanning, and is the best choice for high throughput super- and
hypermarket installations where it is necessary to minimize the need
to grip or lift items.
• moving the bar code directly toward the scan window to be read (see
Figure 1b). This “Presentation” technique is most often used in low
throughput variety, convenience market and pharmacy applications
where usable countertop space is at a premium and “Sweep” scan-
ning is not possible.
