Data Capture
The L10 supports data capture using the following devices:
Internal scanner (XPAD model only, built-in)
RS507x Hands-free Imager
RS5100 Ring Scanner
RS6000 Bluetooth Ring Scanner
DS3578 Bluetooth Scanner
DS3608 USB Scanner.
Operational Modes
The imager supports two modes of operation, listed below. Activate each mode by pressing the Scan
button.
Decode Mode: In this mode, the scanner attempts to locate and decode enabled barcodes within its
field of view. The imager remains in this mode as long as you hold the scan button, or until it decodes a
barcode.
NOTE: To enable picklist mode, configure this mode in DataWedge or in an application using an API
command. The picklist mode is dependent upon the scanner. Refer to the scanner user guide for more
information.
Picklist Mode: This mode lets you selectively decode a barcode when more than one barcode is in the
scanner’s field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair or dot over the required barcode
to decode only this barcode. This feature is ideal for picklists containing multiple barcodes and
manufacturing or transport labels containing more than one barcode type (either 1D or 2D).
Scanning Considerations
Scanning consists of aim, scan, and decode. Scanning performance can be optimized by considering the
range and the scanning angle.
