Barcode Capture with Imager
To capture barcode data:
1. Ensure that an application is open on the device and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field).
2. Point the top of the device at a barcode.

3. Press and hold the Scan button or Trigger.
The red laser aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming.
4. Ensure the barcode is within the area formed by the cross-hairs in the aiming pattern. The aiming dot is used
for increased visibility in bright lighting conditions.
The Scan LEDs light green and a beep sounds, by default, to indicate the barcode was decoded successfully.
Note that when the device is in Pick List Mode, the device does not decode the barcode until the center of the
crosshair touches the barcode.

NOTE: Scanning procedures depend on the application and device configuration. An application may use
different scanning procedures from those described.
