To read a barcode, a scan-enabled application is required. The device contains the DataWedge Demonstration (DWDemo) app, which enables the imager, decodes the barcode/QR code data, and displays barcode content.
Ensure that an application is open on the device, and a text field is in focus (the text cursor is in the text field).
Point the exit window on the top of the device at a barcode or QR code.
Press and hold the scan button.
The device projects the aiming pattern.
Imager decoding usually occurs automatically. When the device is in Picklist mode, the imager does not decode the barcode until the red or green crosshair touches the barcode.
Ensure that the barcode is within the area formed in the aiming pattern.

The Data Capture LED lights up, and the device beeps, by default, to indicate that the barcode was decoded successfully.
The device repeats the steps required to take a digital picture (image) of a poor or difficult barcode as long as the scan button remains pressed.
Release the scan button.
The device displays the barcode data in the text field.
