CHAPTER 2 DATA CAPTURE

Introduction

This chapter provides speaker and LED definitions, general scanning instructions and tips, and decode range

information.

User Feedback Definitions

The imager uses a 2-color indicator LED, a white trigger LED, various beep sequences, and a vibrator motor to

indicate status. Table 2-1 defines the default beep sequences, LED displays, and vibration patterns that occur

during both normal scanning and while programming the imager.

Scanning

The DS4800 can be used in either hand-held triggered mode, hand-held presentation mode, or hands-free mode via an intellistand. To select the mode, see Hand-Held Triggered Mode on page 4-17.

Hand-Held Triggered Scanning

When held, the DS4800 operates in standard triggered mode. Initially, the trigger LED pulses in idle state. To decode a bar code:

1. Aim the imager at a bar code and touch the trigger to decode. Upon trigger touch:

•

The trigger LED turns off.

•

The imager vibrates for 100 ms (by default).

•

If enabled, a brief audio click sounds.

•

The imager projects illumination and a red LED aiming dot to facilitate positioning the bar code within its field of view (see Table 12-2 on page 12-5 for the proper distance to achieve between the imager and a bar code).

Figure 2-1

2. To scan the symbol, center the aiming dot on the symbol, in any orientation.

Figure 2-2

When a bar code is decoded:

3. Release the trigger. The trigger LED remains on while in an active state (10 seconds after the last trigger

press), then returns to idle state and pulses.

Scanning in Hand-Held Mode

Scanning Orientation with Imager Aiming Dot

• A tone sounds (by default). To change the tone, see Scan Tone on page 4-10. To disable the tone, see Beep After Good Decode on page 4-7.

• The green indicator LED turns on (by default). To disable this, see LED on Good Decode on page

4-12.

• If enabled, the imager provides haptic feedback. See Haptic Feedback (Vibrate) on Good Decode on

page 4-13.
