Scanning with Internal Imager

Scanning with Internal Imager

Use the internal imager to capture barcode data.
To read a barcode or QR code, a scan-enabled application is required. The device contains the DataWedge Demonstration (DWDemo) app, which allows you to enable the imager, decode the barcode/QR code data, and display barcode content.
The SE4720 displays a red dot aimer.
  1. Ensure that an application is open on the device and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field).
  2. Point the exit window on the top of the device at a barcode or QR code.

    The device projects the aiming pattern.
  4. Ensure the barcode or QR code is within the area formed in the aiming pattern.

    When the device is in Picklist mode, it does not decode the barcode/QR code until the center of the crosshair touches the barcode/QR code.
    The Data Capture LED light turns on, and the device beeps, by default, to indicate that the barcode or QR code was decoded successfully.
  5. Release the scan button.
    The device displays the barcode or QR code data in the text field.
