Scanning with the Camera

Use the internal camera to capture barcode data.
To read a barcode, a scan-enabled app is required. The device contains the DataWedge app that allows the user to enable the scanner to decode barcode data and display the barcode content.
The integrated camera is intended for light-duty barcode scanning. For heavy-duty scanning, 100 or more scans per day, use a compatible Zebra scanner such as the Z-Flex.
To scan with the internal camera:
  1. Launch a scanning application.
  2. Bring the barcode in front of the camera.
  3. Move the barcode until it is visible on the screen. The scanning distance is 20-30 cm (7.87-11.81 in.) from the screen.
  4. The captured data appears in the text field.
