3. Operating Instructions

The HC-651D scanner offers powerful decoding capabilities and flexible scanning modes to suit various operational needs.

3.1 Supported Barcode Types

This scanner can read a wide range of 1D and 2D barcodes from both printed materials and electronic screens (e-coupons, e-tickets).

• 1D Barcodes: EAN, UPC, Code 39, Code 128, UCC/EAN 128, Codeabar, Interleaved 2 of 5, ITF-6, ITF-14, ISBN, ISSN, MSI-Plessey, GS1 packets, Code 11, Industrial 25, Matrix 2 of 5, etc.
• 2D Barcodes: QR Code, DataMatrix, PDF417, Aztec Code, Maxi Code.

The scanner is particularly effective at reading ultra-long, colored, damaged, or distorted barcodes.

The image displays the scanner's ability to read multiple barcode types, including 1D, 2D, and QR codes from both paper and digital screens. Examples of QR Code, Aztec Code, Maxi Code, Data Matrix, and PDF417 are shown.

This image illustrates the scanner's advanced decoding capabilities, showing its ability to scan 2D QR barcodes and digital screens, even if the barcodes are distorted, damaged, reflective, or colorful. It contrasts this with other 1D scanners that cannot scan 2D or digital screen barcodes.

3.2 Scanning Modes

The scanner supports three distinct scanning modes:

• Manual Trigger Mode: Press the trigger button to initiate a scan.
• Continuous Scan Mode: The scanner continuously emits a scan beam, reading barcodes as they pass through the field of view without needing to press the trigger.
• Auto-sensing Scan Mode: The scanner automatically detects a barcode within its range and activates the scan beam to read it.

The image demonstrates the three available scanning modes: Manual Trigger Mode (user presses button), Continuous Scan Mode (scans constantly), and Auto-sensing Scan Mode (scans when a barcode is detected).

3.3 Data Editing Functions

The scanner supports configurable options to modify scanned data:

• Add Prefix: Insert characters before the scanned data.
• Add Suffix: Insert characters after the scanned data.
• Insert in Middle: Add characters at a specific position within the scanned data.
• Hide Front/End: Conceal a specified number of characters from the beginning or end of the scanned data.

This image shows examples of how the scanner's powerful editing functions can modify scanned data, such as adding prefixes, suffixes, inserting text in the middle, or hiding parts of the barcode data.

3.4 Beep Settings

You can configure the scanner's audible feedback (beep) to be either on or off, depending on your preference and working environment.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your JRHC HC-651D barcode scanner, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Scanner Not Responding:
  • Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the scanner and the computer.
  • Try plugging the scanner into a different USB port on your computer.
  • Test the scanner on a different computer to rule out computer-specific issues.
• Unable to Scan Barcodes:
  • Ensure the barcode is clean, clear, and not excessively damaged or distorted.
  • Adjust the distance between the scanner and the barcode. The optimal scanning distance can vary.
  • Try different scanning modes (Manual, Continuous, Auto-sensing) to see if one works better for your specific barcode type or environment.
  • Verify that the application you are using is active and ready to receive input.
• Incorrect Data Scanned:
  • Check if any data editing functions (prefix, suffix, etc.) are enabled that might be altering the output. Refer to the operating instructions for configuration.
  • Ensure the barcode is fully visible and not partially obscured during scanning.
