Scanning 2 - 7
Hands-Free Scanning
The digital scanner is in hands-free (presentation) mode when it sits in the CR0078-P cradle. In this mode the
digital scanner operates in continuous (constant-on) mode, where it automatically decodes a bar code presented in
the field of view.
To scan:
1. Ensure all connections are secure (see appropriate host chapter).
2. Present the bar code in the digital scanner field of view.

3. Upon successful decode, the digital scanner beeps and the LED flashes green. (For more information about
beeper and LED definitions, see Table 2-1 and Table 2-2.)
Aiming
When scanning, the digital scanner projects a red laser aiming pattern which allows positioning the bar code within
its field of view. See Decode Ranges on page 2-9 for the proper distance to achieve between the digital scanner
and a bar code.
