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.
Ensure that an app is open on the device and a text field is in focus (text cursor in the text field).
Point the exit window of the device at a barcode.
Press and hold the scan button.
The aiming dot with illumination turns on to assist in aiming.
Ensure the barcode is within the area formed by the aiming pattern. The aiming dot is used for increased visibility in bright lighting conditions.
A beep sounds, by default, to indicate the barcode was decoded successfully.
