Capturing Images or Barcode Labels
The Hands-free Imager houses a digital camera (Imager) that captures the most commonly used 1D
and 2D barcodes. The Hands-free Imager supports omni-directional operation for easy use in daily
work. The Imager captures digital images, such as signatures or pictures of any mail object or form.
The images are stored in the Hands-free Imager memory.
To capture an Image:
1. Aim and hold the Hands-free
Imager at approximately 2 to 9
inches (5 to 22 cm) away from the
target.
2. Press once the Multifunction button
and aim the green line pattern light
towards the barcode symbol.
Release the button – A successful
scan will be followed by green blinks of the LED indicator and three beep sounds.
To initiate continues automatic scanning, press the Multifunction button twice – the imager
will go to automatic scanning mode and will continue to scan barcode symbols that will be
placed in front of it.
Note that, when the Hands-free Imager is held closer to the barcode the green line is shown
smaller, and larger when farther from the barcode. Barcode symbols with small elements should
be read closer to the Hands-free Imager and large elements farther from the Hands-free Imager.
To capture a barcode symbol, position the green line of light in any angle, as shown in the following
picture:
Note: When adjusting your position, you may move back and forth from the target to capture the
entire object.

Troubleshooting
Whenever there is a problem, check the battery, power cable, and other physical items that might be
loose, disconnected, or failing. It is also possible, though unlikely, that Hands-free Imager or charger,
which once was operative, might become damaged.
In the case of charger operation failure, power supply is properly connected, and no physical item is
visible, it is recommended to reset charger by unplugging the power supply, waiting a few second,
and re-plugging it.
Defective battery - In this case try a different Hands-free Imager that once worked properly, if
problem is solved, the Hands-free Imager has bad battery.
