Using the Scanner
The scanner normally functions by capturing and decoding codes. It is equipped with an internal
motion-sensing function that activates the aiming system on device motion. The intelligent aiming
system indicates the field of view that should be positioned over the bar code:
Figure 4-3 Aiming System
Figure 4-4 Relative Size and Location of Aiming System Pattern
A red beam illuminates the label. The field of view indicated by the aiming system will be smaller
when the scanner is closer to the bar code and larger when it is farther from the code. Symbologies
with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer to the unit. Symbologies with larger
bars or elements (mil size) should be read farther from the unit.
If the aiming system is centered and the entire bar code is within the aiming field, you will get a good
read. Successful reading is signaled by an audible tone plus a good-read green spot LED indicator.
Refer to the HP Imaging Barcode Scanner Product Reference Guide (PRG) for more information
about this feature and other programmable settings.
Configuring the Interface
The scanner supports USB as a host interface. Programming options and information are provided in
Configuring the Interface on page 9. Upon completing the physical connection between the scanner
and its host, select the desired Interface option by scanning the appropriate bar code to select your
system’s interface type.
If you want to customize additional settings and features associated with that interface, proceed to the
corresponding chapter in the HP Imaging Barcode Scanner PRG.
NOTE: Unlike some other programming features and options, interface selections require that you
scan only one programming bar code label. DO NOT scan an ENTER/EXIT barcode prior to scanning
an interface selection bar code. Some interfaces require the scanner to start in the disabled state
when powered up. If additional scanner configuration is desired while in this state, pull the trigger and
hold for 5 seconds. The scanner will change to a state that allows programming with bar codes.
