Reading Techniques The view finder projects a red aiming beam that should be centered over the bar code. Hold the scanner over the bar code, pull the trigger, and center the aiming beam on the bar code. The aiming beam is smaller when the scanner is closer to the code and larger when it is farther from the code. Hold the scanner close to smaller bar codes, and farther away from large bar codes to get a proper read. If the bar code is highly reflective (e.g.
To read PDF417 bar codes with a PDF-enabled 3800, hold the trigger down and move the scanner up and down so the aiming line sweeps from the top of the bar code to the bottom, and back up. This ensures that the entire code is scanned. Note: This only applies to a PDF enabled 3800/ 3800g. Standard Product Defaults The following bar code resets all standard product default settings.
Interface Scan the bar code that describes the PC or interface you are using.
Keyboard Country Scan the Program Keyboard Country bar code below, then scan the numeric bar code(s) from page 10, then the Save bar code to program the keyboard for your country. As a general rule, the following characters are not supported by the scanner for countries other than the United States: @ | $ # { } [ ] = / ‘ \ < > ~.
Trigger The following bar codes will allow you to use the reader in Manual Trigger mode (need to press the trigger to read), Automatic Trigger mode (the beam is always on), or Presentation mode (the reader is activated when it “sees” a bar code). Manual Trigger (Default) Automatic Trigger Presentation Mode Reread Delay This sets the time period before the scanner can read the same bar code a second time. Setting a reread delay protects against accidental rereads of the same bar code.
Suffix If you want a carriage return after the bar code, scan the Add CR Suffix bar code. To add a tab after the bar code, scan the Add Tab Suffix bar code. Otherwise, scan the Remove Suffix bar code to remove the suffixes. Add CR Suffix Add Tab Suffix Remove Suffix Add Code ID Prefix to all Symbologies Scan the following bar code if you wish to add a Code ID prefix to all symbologies at once.
