Istruzioni per l'uso
1. Scansione dei codici a barre
Per scansionare un codice a barre:
- Point the scan window of the scanner at the barcode.
- Press the scanning switch. A red laser line will appear.
- Ensure the laser line crosses the entire barcode. A successful scan will be indicated by a beep and/or a change in the indicator light.
Nota: This is a 1D barcode scanner. It cannot read 2D barcodes (like QR codes, PDF417) or barcodes from device screens. It may also struggle with barcodes on silver foil paper that reflects light.
2. Offline Storage
The scanner features a built-in 16MB high-capacity memory, capable of storing over 50,000 1D barcodes in offline storage mode. This allows you to collect data without being constantly connected to a host device. Once connected, you can upload the stored data.
Connettività e portata
The scanner offers impressive range for both wireless modes:
- Modalità wireless 2.4G: Delivers up to 200 meters (656 feet) transmission in open air.
- Modalità Bluetooth: Provides up to 30 meters (98 feet) transmission in open air.
Manutenzione
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Symcode barcode scanner, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Pulizia: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the scanner's exterior. For the scan window, use a lint-free cloth and a mild glass cleaner if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Cura della batteria: Store the scanner in a cool, dry place when not in use. If storing for extended periods, ensure the battery is partially charged (around 50%) to prolong its lifespan. Avoid fully discharging the battery frequently.
- Magazzinaggio: Tenere lo scanner lontano da temperature estreme, luce solare diretta e umidità elevata.
- Gestione: Sebbene sia stato progettato per essere durevole, evitare di far cadere lo scanner o di sottoporlo a urti violenti.
