PDF417 Scan Module Instructions
The PDF417 scan module lets you scan PDF417 bar code labels. To use the PDF417 scan module, you need to upgrade your terminal
firmware to version 7.15 or later. You can download the firmware at no charge from the Intermec web site at www.intermec.com.
Note: Observe all static electricity precautions before installing the scan module.

and sturdy work surface.

and gently press the scan module onto the terminal.
The scan module guide pins and connector should
fit easily into the connector on the terminal. DO NOT
force the module into the connector or you may
damage the module connector, the terminal, or both.

module de balayage devraient tenir aisément dans le
connecteur du terminal. NE forcez PAS le module
dans le connecteur au risque d’endommager le
