1. Introduction
The NETUM NT-7060 is an omnidirectional, hands-free desktop barcode scanner designed for fast and accurate decoding of 1D and 2D barcodes. It supports scanning from both physical labels and digital screens, making it suitable for various applications such as retail, libraries, pharmacies, and cafes. This manual provides essential information for setting up, operating, configuring, and maintaining your scanner.
2. Setup
The NT-7060 scanner features a simple plug-and-play setup, requiring no additional drivers or software installation.
- Connect the USB Cable: Connect the USB interface of the data line from the scanner to an available USB port on your computer.
- System Compatibility: The scanner is compatible with various operating systems, including Windows (7/8/10/XP), Mac OS, and Linux. It works seamlessly with common software applications like Word, Excel, and TXT.
3. Operating Instructions
The NT-7060 features infrared auto-sensing for hands-free operation and an adjustable scanning window for optimal comfort and efficiency.
- Hands-Free Scanning: Place the item with the barcode in front of the scanner's window. The intelligent infrared sensor will automatically detect the item and activate scanning.
- Optimal Reading Distance: For best results, hold the barcode 15-20 cm away from the scanner. If a barcode is not read, adjust the reading distance, light position, and tilt angle.
- Scan Confirmation: Upon successful decoding, the scanner will emit a "drop" sound message, and the scanned data will be transmitted to your connected device.
- Screen Scanning: The scanner supports reading barcodes directly from digital screens, such as mobile phones and computer displays.
- Adjustable Scan Window: The scanner head can be adjusted by 30° to provide a more comfortable scanning angle, reducing strain during prolonged use.

6. Troubleshooting
- Some barcodes cannot be read:
- Ensure the barcode is clean and clear. Dirty or unclear barcodes may not be readable.
- Digital barcodes displayed on phones, computers, or tablets can be read by CCD or 2D scanners, but not by laser barcode scanners. The NT-7060 is a 2D scanner and should read digital barcodes.
- Certain barcode types might be disabled by default. Refer to the full user manual (PDF) for instructions on activating specific barcode types.
- Adding/Removing Enter for Suffix: Refer to the "Terminator Settings" section (Section 4.3) or the "Common Function Barcodes" in the full user manual (PDF) to configure the suffix.
- Data not sent to computer: If the scanner is in inventory mode, it stores scans internally. To send the stored data, scan the "Manual data upload" barcode.
- Messy code problem with foreign languages: The default language is English. If you encounter messy codes when using other languages, refer to the "Language Setting" chapter in the full user manual (PDF) to change the setting.
7. User Tips
- Character Case Output: If your scanner outputs characters in lowercase on your POS system, refer to the 'Language Setting' or 'Advanced Settings' section in the full user manual (PDF) to configure character case or input mode. This often involves scanning a specific configuration barcode.
- Regular Cleaning: Keep the scanning window clean to ensure optimal reading performance. Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the surface.
- Environmental Conditions: Avoid exposing the scanner to extreme temperatures, humidity, or direct sunlight for prolonged periods to prevent damage and ensure longevity.
