Using a Quick Check 800 Verifier
The Quick Check Series 800 Bar Code Verifier is a high performance,
professional tool for verifying the readability and standards compliance of printed
bar codes in non-contact mode. The Quick Check 800 Verifier units use a
handheld linear imaging bar code reader for simple, convenient aim and shoot
operation. The Series 800 verifiers are enhanced versions of Hand Held
Products’ Series 600 verifiers and are designed to not only provide the user with
all the features of the Series 600 models, but also allow the ease of use of a non-
contact device for certain verification tasks.
This chapter details where the operation of a Series 800 verifier differs from a
Series 600 unit.
Using the Quick Check 800 Verifier with a QC3800V
Linear Imager
Only
the QC3800V can be used as the non-contact input device
with a Series 800 unit. The QC3800V should not be used with
any other decoder or terminal.
General Operation
Scanning is initiated by depressing the trigger on the QC3800V after the Quick
Check 800 Verifier has been turned on. When the unit starts scanning, it emits
a single beep.
If the unit cannot decode a bar code after a trigger pull, it emits four beeps and
returns to the main display.
After a successful decode, with a result that passes the minimum acceptable
grade set point, the unit emits three beeps (one short, two long).
A decode that fails to receive a grade above the minimum requirement set
causes the unit to emit five beeps (one short, one long, three short).
The optimum reading orientation for the QC3800V is 6 inches (152.4 mm) with
an angle of incidence of 15° from perpendicular. At this orientation, the system
performance approximates an average circular aperture size of .006 to .008
inches (.152 to .203 mm). Extreme variations from this orientation may affect the
accuracy of some parameter results.
Battery life of the Quick Check 800 Verifier with the QC3800V attached will be
shorter than when using the QC Mouse Wand or Pen Wand. To extend battery
charge life, use the unit with the charger connected.
