Operation

Scanning Items

To scan items using the scanner, slide or push them through the SurroundScan

scan

zone as shown on this page. The scanner will work equally well with either a left-to-

right or right-to-left motion through the scan zone. There is no need to reorient an item’s

bar code since the scanner can “see” the left, right, front and back side, as well as the top

and bottom of an item.

Here are some tips for best scanning results:

• Don’t favor either the horizontal or verti-

cal scan windows. Keep items in their

natural orientation.

• Remember to slide or push items rather

than picking them up. By avoiding any

gripping, twisting and rotation of your

hands and wrists, you can prevent repet-

itive motion injuries. This technique also

relieves you from possibly lifting thou-

sands of pounds per day.

CAUTION

Apply power to the EAS Controller box before powering on the scanner..

NOTE

“Limited Scanning Mode”

is entered by default until

a POS terminal enables

scanning. Labels are

“chirped” while in this

mode.
