Reading Techniques
The scanner has a view finder that projects a bright red aiming beam that corre-
sponds to the scanner’s horizontal field of view. The aiming beam should be cen-
tered horizontally over the bar code and must highlight all the vertical bars of the
bar code. It will not read if the aiming beam is in any other direction.
