Barcode Scanning

Using the 1D barcode scanner:

The Linea TAB Mini 1D uses a scan engine that supports one-dimensional (1D) barcode symbols. The effective reading distance of the barcode reader varies depending on the barcode size.
Scanning 1D Barcodes:
To scan a 1D barcode, first activate the scanner. Then position the scanning head as close as possible to the barcode label so that the scan line crosses both ends of the barcode as shown on the figure below.
Slowly pull back the unit, while increasing the distance between the barcode and scanning head, until the barcode has been read by the scanner.
Reading distance is depend
Linea TAB Mini supports different types of scan:
- Single Scan
- Multi Scan

Using the 2D barcode scanner:

The Linea TAB Mini 2D uses a scan engines that supports one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) barcode symbols. The effective reading distance of the barcode reader varies depending on the barcode size.
Scanning 2D Barcodes:
To scan a 2D barcode fist activate the scanner. Then position the scanning head to the center of the barcode by aiming with the red laser beam and the illumination box is over the outer edges of the barcode, as shown in the figure below.
Slowly pull back the unit, while increasing the distance between the barcode and the scanning head, until the barcode has been read by the scanner.

Card Reading

Reading Magnetic Stripes:
The Linea TAB Mini has a built-in magnetic card reader. The card reader incorporates a (3) track magnetic read head, requiring a single swipe to read field data from all three tracks.
The magnetic reading head faces up, towards the top of the bottom cover of the cradle. When swiping the card into the reader, the magnetic stripe must be facing down, as shown in the figure below. Keep the edge of the card flat on the inner base of the reader to ensure that the magnetic stripe passes over the reading head evenly.
