How to use

Connect the scanner to a USB port on your POS terminal, receipt printer or PC. Aim the scanner at the barcode and press the trigger; the device decodes 1D and 2D barcodes and sends the data via USB to the connected system. For best results, position the scanner so the barcode fills the scan window and ensure the display or label is steady during capture.

Recommendations

The scanner performs best when used within the recommended operating distance from the barcode and when surfaces are clean and free of heavy glare. Avoid exposing the device to direct water jets and extreme conditions beyond its IP42 rating; if dropped, inspect for damage before continued use.
