3.2.3 Conexión USB con cable

Connect the scanner directly to your computer using the provided USB cable. The scanner will function as a USB HID keyboard device, and no additional drivers are usually required. This mode also charges the scanner.

3.3 Initial Configuration (NT-1200)

For the NT-1200, specific settings like scanning modes or data transmission options may require scanning configuration barcodes found in the separate NT-1200 manual. Always refer to the dedicated manual for the NT-1200 for detailed setup barcodes.

4. Instrucciones de funcionamiento

4.1 Escaneo de códigos de barras

Point the scanner's window at the barcode you wish to scan. Press the trigger button (for manual mode) or allow the scanner to detect the barcode automatically (in auto-sensing mode). A successful scan is usually indicated by a beep and/or a green LED light.

4.2 Scanning Modes (NT-1200)

• Modo de disparo manual: Presione el botón disparador para escanear cada código de barras.
• Modo de escaneo continuo: The scanner continuously emits a scan line, reading barcodes as they pass through the field of view sin necesidad de apretar el gatillo.
• Modo de escaneo con detección automática: El escáner detecta automáticamente un código de barras en su campo de view and scans it without manual trigger activation.

To switch between these modes, you will need to scan specific configuration barcodes provided in the NT-1200's dedicated manual.

4.3 Modo de almacenamiento

When the scanner is out of Bluetooth or 2.4GHz wireless range, it can store scanned barcodes internally. The NT-1200 supports storage of up to 100,000 barcodes. To upload stored data, reconnect the scanner to your host device and scan the "Upload Data" configuration barcode (if applicable, refer to your specific model's manual).

5. Mantenimiento

• Limpieza: Utilice un paño suave y seco para limpiar el exterior del escáner. Para la ventana de escaneo, utilice un paño para limpiar lentes y un limpiador suave no abrasivo si es necesario. Evite productos químicos agresivos o materiales abrasivos.
• Almacenamiento: Guarde el escáner en un lugar fresco y seco, alejado de la luz solar directa y de temperaturas extremas.
• Cuidado de la batería: Para una vida útil óptima de la batería, evite descargarla completamente con frecuencia. Si la va a guardar durante un período prolongado, cárguela aproximadamente al 50 % y recárguela cada pocos meses.
• Protección contra caídas: While designed to be rugged (withstanding drops up to 4.92 feet / 1.5 meters), avoid unnecessary drops to prolong the device's life.
