Using the Scanner

Scan barcodes using the scanner when it is connected to the host device.
The scanner should not be used in condensing environments.
  1. Turn on the host device.
  2. Launch a scanning application.
    If the RS5000 is connected to a WT41N0, it requires a minute or more to recharge after it is powered down for an extended period of time. Allow a minute for the RS5000 to charge.
  3. Press the scan trigger and aim the scanner at a barcode.
  4. Ensure the barcode is within the area formed by the aiming pattern. The aiming dot/crosshair is used for increased visibility in bright lighting conditions.
