4. Упатства за работа
4.1 Скенирање баркодови
Figure 4.1: The scanner is capable of reading 1D barcodes from both printed labels and digital screens.
To scan a barcode, point the scanner's laser beam at the barcode you wish to read. Ensure the entire barcode is covered by the laser line.
- Режим за активирање на клучот: Press and hold the trigger button to activate the laser. Release the button after a successful scan.
- Режим на авто-индукција: The scanner automatically activates the laser when a barcode is detected within its scanning range.
- Континуиран режим: The laser remains continuously active, allowing for rapid, successive scans without pressing the trigger.
Note: For optimal performance, ensure sufficient lighting and a clear view на баркодот.
4.2 Поддржани типови баркодови
Figure 4.2: The scanner's 1D Super Decoding Ability allows it to easily capture common 1D barcodes on labels, even if they are damaged or irregular.
The scanner supports a wide range of 1D barcode symbologies, including but not limited to:
- EAN-8/13
- UPC-A/E (e.g., UPC A: 0123456789012)
- Code 39/93/128 (e.g., CODE 128: 1234567890)
- EAN-128
- Codabar
- Industrial 2 of 5 (e.g., Industrial 2 of 5: 987612)
- Префрли 2 од 5
- Матрица 2 од 5
- MSI
- Кинески 2 од 5
- And variations like Frauded Barcode (e.g., 1234567890135), Profiled Barcode (e.g., 4603146002134), Folded Barcode, and Color Barcode.
4.3 Customizing Output (Prefix/Suffix)
Figure 4.3: The scanner supports customization of scanned data by adding prefixes or suffixes, or inserting characters in the middle.
The scanner allows for configuration of prefixes and suffixes to be added to the scanned barcode data. This feature is useful for integrating scanned data into specific software systems or for data formatting.
For detailed instructions on how to configure these options, please refer to the programming barcodes provided in the supplementary user guide (often a separate sheet of barcodes for configuration).
- Додај префикс: E.g., "RL" + "123456789" becomes "RL123456789"
- Додај наставка: E.g., "123456789" + "RL" becomes "123456789RL"
- Insert in Middle: E.g., "12345" + "RL" + "6789" becomes "12345RL6789"
4.4 Поставки за звук
Figure 4.4: The scanner's sound can be toggled on or off according to user preference.
The scanner provides audible feedback for successful scans. You can turn this sound on or off as needed.
To change the sound setting, scan the appropriate configuration barcode provided in the supplementary user guide. Typically, there are specific barcodes for "Turn on the Sound" and "Turn off the Sound".
5. Одржување
Правилното одржување обезбедува долготрајност и оптимални перформанси на вашиот скенер за баркодови.
- Чистење: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the scanner's exterior. For the scanning window, use a lens cleaning cloth or a soft cloth lightly dampсо неабразивно средство за чистење. Избегнувајте груби хемикалии или абразивни материјали.
- Складирање: Чувајте го скенерот на ладно и суво место, подалеку од директна сончева светлина и екстремни температури.
- Грижа за кабел: Избегнувајте прекумерно виткање или извиткување на USB кабелот, бидејќи тоа може да ги оштети внатрешните жици.
- Заштита од пад: While designed to be durable, avoid unnecessary drops or impacts to prevent potential damage.
