Using the Barcode Reader
This device may have an optional internal Barcode Reader module. It is an optical input device used to
capture and read information contained in a bar code. Most common 1D and 2D barcode formats can be
read. The location of the reader is shown in the product layout in Chapter 2 (Position 14).
Press the physical scan button on the tablet to activate the scanner. A barcode placed win the scanner
field of view will be read. To enable the barcode function, please follow the instructions in the specific
software for your application to use barcode reader function properly.
The maximum operating temperature for the barcode scanner is 50 °C (122 °F).
The barcode reader only works at close range under appropriate ambient light conditions. A small beep
indicates that the barcode has been successfully read.
 If you want to check the Barcode Reader hardware is working properly, you may use eController
app to test. See Chapter 6: eController App and its Applications.
