Power on the scanner and aim the imager at the barcode; press the trigger to scan. For corded operation, connect the scanner directly to the host and point the scanner at the barcode, pulling the trigger to capture data. Use the included configuration utility or Zebra management tools to set data formatting, communication parameters and firmware updates.

Recommendations

Store and operate the DS3678-SR within the manufacturer’s specified temperature and humidity ranges. Clean the window regularly to maintain scan performance and inspect the cradle seal if operating in wet or dusty environments. Use Zebra’s configuration and remote management tools to keep firmware current and to monitor battery health for cordless units.
