Scanning 2 - 5
Scanning Modes
The Symbol LS4208 accommodates both hand-held and hands-free modes. In hand-held use, you pull the trigger
to activate the scan pattern and decode the bar code. In hands-free mode, the scanner sits in the Intellistand and
automatically decodes a bar code presented in its field of view.
Scanning in Hand-Held Mode
Install and program the scanner (see Setting Up the Scanner on page 1-3). For assistance, contact Motorola
Enterprise Mobility Support. See page xv for contact information.
To scan in hand-held mode:
1. Ensure all connections are secure. (See the host chapter for the scanner.)
2. Aim the scanner at the bar code.
3. Press the trigger.
