Scanning with the DS2278 Digital Scanner

Use the DS2278 Digital Scanner to capture barcode data.

Refer to the DS2278 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide for more information.

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.

To scan with the DS2278:

Pair the DS2278 with the device. See Pairing a Bluetooth Scanner for more information.

Ensure that an app is open on the device and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field).

Point the scanner at a barcode.

Press and hold the trigger.

Ensure the aiming pattern covers the barcode.

Upon successful decode, the scanner beeps and the LED flashes, and the scan line turns off.

The captured data appears in the text field.
