Data Capture
Introduction
The WT6000 can be used with the following optional data capture accessories:
• RS4000 laser scanner
• RS5,000 corded imager
• RS6000 Hands-free imager
• RS507/RS507X Hands-free imager.
Laser Scanning
WT6000 with an optional RS4000 laser scanner has the following features:
• Reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear and 1D code types.
• Advanced intuitive laser aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation
• Adaptive scanning.
Scanning Bar Codes
Imaging
The WT6000 with an optional RS507, RS5,000 or RS6000 imager has the following features:
• Omnidirectional (360°) reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear,
postal, PDF417, and 2D matrix code types.
• Advanced intuitive laser aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.
The imager uses imaging technology to take a picture of a bar code, stores the resulting image in its memory, and
executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the bar code data from the image.
NOTE: Scanning procedures depend on the application and WT6000 configuration. An application may use
different scanning procedures from the one listed below.
