Socket Mobile Series 3 Scanner User Manual


 
STEP 7: Scan Data into Your Application
1. Press the assigned trigger button and scan the bar code.
Make sure the aiming beam covers the entire width of the
bar code.
When data is read, a beep will sound, and the scanner
beam will turn off. If the SD Scan Card fails to read data
within a few seconds, the scanner beam will turn off, and
you must try again.
For tips on scanning technique, please refer to Appendix E.
If your device enters sleep mode when SocketScan
is running, press the ON button to initialize the
scanner and resume operation.
2. After a successful scan, data should appear in your
document. For example, after you scan a bar code into an
Excel Mobile spreadsheet, data should appear in the first
cell. The next cell should be highlighted, ready for the next
scan.
