5. Funzionamento dello scanner

5.1 Scansione di base

To scan a barcode, point the scanner's laser beam at the barcode you wish to read and press the trigger button (if in Key Trigger mode). The scanner will emit a successful scan beep and the data will be transmitted to your connected device as if typed by a keyboard.

The scanner can read 1D barcodes from both printed labels and digital screens, such as a smartphone display.

5.2 Modalità di scansione

Lo scanner supporta tre modalità di scansione principali:

• Modalità di attivazione chiave: Press the trigger to activate the scan. Release to stop.
• Modalità di autoinduzione: Lo scanner rileva automaticamente un codice a barre nel suo campo di view e lo scansiona senza dover premere il grilletto.
• Modalità continua: The scanner continuously emits the laser beam, scanning any barcode that passes through its field.

Refer to the included configuration guide (often a set of barcodes) to switch between these modes. If auto-sensing is inactive, scan the appropriate configuration barcode to enable it.

5.3 Impostazioni audio

The scanner provides audible feedback for successful scans. You can turn this sound on or off according to your preference by scanning specific configuration barcodes.

Scan specific barcodes to enable or disable the scanner's sound feedback.

5.4 Customizing Data Output (Prefix/Suffix)

The scanner allows you to add custom prefixes or suffixes to the scanned barcode data. This feature is useful for integrating scanned data into specific software or databases that require additional identifiers.
