4.1 Scanning Barcodes
Point the scanner's window at the barcode you wish to scan and press the "SCAN" button. A successful scan will typically be indicated by a beep and the barcode data appearing on the screen.
4.2 Scan Modes
The scanner supports different operational modes to suit various needs:
4.2.1 Wireless Mode (Instant Upload)
In this mode, scanned barcode data is immediately transmitted to your connected device (e.g., computer) as if typed via a keyboard. This is suitable for real-time data entry.
4.2.2 Collect Mode
This mode allows you to scan and store multiple barcodes internally. The scanner's screen will display the number, length, and count of scanned items. After scanning, you can export the collected data to your device.
4.2.3 Inventory Mode
Designed for inventory management, this mode enables you to scan items and manually input quantities directly on the scanner. The device stores this information, which can then be exported to your computer for inventory tracking.
