Mindeo FS580 - Tilt Angle and Dead Zone

3-5 Tilt angle and dead zone
While scanning a bar code, do not hold the scanner vertically over it. This can cause the issue of
specular reflection which is the mirror-like reflection of light from a surface. In this case, the specular
refection is caused because the laser light reflects directly back into the scanner from the bar code. This
specular reflection can make decoding difficult. Tilt angle and dead zone are shown in Figure 3-5.
