Pinning - Pinning, also called scan counting, allows you to lock a field on the

mobile device or pc, then scan in additional information. Pinning is the term

used on the PC and on mobile devices using Windows CE, such as the

WDT3200. For example, if you are counting item number 20500 and it is tracked

by serial number and you it is all in the same site and location, select the item

number once on the PC or mobile device’s Audit screen, then pin the Item

Number field, select the Site and Location and pin those as well. The data in the

Item Number field will stay 20500 until you unpin it. Now you can scan just the

serial number on each item to count the quantity instead of having to re-enter the

item number each time. If you are scanning data that is not tracked by serial

number, but is all in the same site and location, you can pin the Site and Location

fields, then keep scanning the Item Number barcodes to increase the quantity.

manner.
