comes on until the trigger is released or after five (5) seconds. The green

LED and the beep tone indicate a good read.

is read successfully, the scanner turns off automatically.

Triggers

The left trigger (as seen from the front of the unit) is the default setting to

operate the Falcon scanner or another bar code reader attached to the Falcon,

and the right trigger toggles the Falcon in and out of Alpha mode (models

31X)

or Function mode (models

32X).The operation of these triggers can be

switched. This will allows use of the right trigger as the scanner trigger and the

left trigger as the mode toggle.

To swap the trigger operations in the Falcon

31X:

•Press the

<FN 2> key, and then press the <SWAP> key

• Repeat to return to the default settings.

Correct Scanning Positions

Incorrect Scanning Positions

Ideal positioning

A bit high, will read correctly

A bit angled, will read correctly

Positioned too far to the right. Will

not read entire bar code.

Too angled; cannot read the

entire bar code.

Bar code will not read. The

scanner should be posi-

tioned perpendicular to

the bar code bars.

If the bar code scan failed, adjust the reading angle or distance. Make sure that the

scan beam scans across all bars of the bar code. Refer to

Figure 21.
