The engine has a view finder that projects a bright red aiming beam that corresponds to the engine’s horizontal field of view.
The aiming beam should be centered over the bar code, but it can be positioned in any direction for a good read.
The aiming beam is smaller when the engine is closer to the code and larger when it is farther from the code. Symbologies with
smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer to the unit. Symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil size) should
be read farther from the unit. To read single or multiple symbols (on a page or on an object), hold the engine at an appropriate
distance from the target, pull the trigger, and center the aiming beam on the symbol. If the code being scanned is highly reflec-
tive (e.g., laminated), it may be necessary to tilt the code up 15° to 18° to prevent unwanted reflection.
Menu Bar Code Security Settings
Honeywell scan engines are programmed by scanning menu bar codes or by sending serial commands to the scan engine. If
you want to restrict the ability to scan menu codes, you can use the Menu Bar Code Security settings. Please contact the near-
est technical support office (see Limited Warranty on page 12-1) for further information.
Setting Custom Defaults
You have the ability to create a set of menu commands as your own, custom defaults. To do so, scan the Set Custom Defaults
bar code below before scanning the menu commands for your custom defaults. If a menu command requires scanning numeric
codes from the back cover, then a Save code, that entire sequence will be saved to your custom defaults. When you have
entered all the commands you want to save for your custom defaults, scan the Save Custom Defaults bar code.
