How to Scan Figure 2 illustrates some tips to help get the best scanning results: 1. The scanner must be pointed at a slight angle to the bar code. Do not hold the scanner perpendicular to the bar code. 2. The laser beam must cross the entire bar code. The scanner cannot correctly read if the entire bar code is not scanned. Figure 2.

Scanning Range There are currently four different model types for this scanner. Depending upon the model type of your scanner, you’ll need to hold the unit at a given distance from the bar code to achieve optimum scanning results. The following diagrams provide range of field infor- mation for each of the models when scanning grade A, Code 39 bar codes: Standard Range (SR), High Density (HD), Long Range (LR) and Extra Long Range (XLR). In the context of the illustration below, a "mil" repre

Laser Cautions The PowerScan bar code scanner is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS/CDRH 21CFR Subchapter J for Class II laser products. Class II products are not considered to be hazardous. The scanner contains a Visible Laser Diode (VLD) at a wavelength of 650- 670 nanometers and is designed so that there can be no human access to harmful levels of laser light during normal operation, user mainte- nance, or during prescribed service operations. If the scan patter

Troubleshooting You can isolate problems with your scanning system by performing these checks (refer to Figure 9): 1. If your scanner’s cable is designed to receive Power Off the Terminal (P.O.T.), it will not operate unless it is connected to a working host terminal that is powered on. 2. Ensure that the interface cable is securely attached to the host. Consult your technical support manager or refer to your host system manual to identify the proper connection for the scanner. 3.
