  3. For Bluetooth, enable pairing mode on scanner (see manual).
  4. Select correct interface in ScanMaster software.

Tip: Use high-quality cables for reliable data transmission.

Scanning Operations

Supports 1D linear barcodes and 2D matrix codes.

  1. Power on: Ensure scanner is connected and powered.
  2. Aim: Point scanner at barcode within optimal range (10-50 cm).
  3. Trigger: Press trigger button to activate scan; release to stop.
  4. Continuous mode: Scanner reads automatically when barcode detected.
  5. Verify: Listen for beep and check LED for successful read.
  6. Data output: Scanned data transmits to connected device as keyboard input.
  7. Multiple scans: Rapid trigger presses for sequential barcodes.
  8. Poor reads: Adjust distance, angle, or lighting conditions.

WARNING! Do not expose scanner to direct sunlight or strong ambient light. Avoid dropping or impact.

Configuration Features

Data Formatting: Add prefixes/suffixes, truncate characters. Symbology Settings: Enable/disable specific barcode types. Advanced: Motion sensing, image capture, diagnostic mode.

Care & Cleaning

Disconnect power before cleaning. Use soft, dry cloth for exterior; lens cleaning with approved wipes.

CAUTION! Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners. Keep ventilation openings clear.
