Bar Code Capture with RS507 Hands-Free Imager
To read a bar code, a scan-enabled application is required. The WT6000 contains the DataWedge application that
allows the user to enable the scanner to decode bar code data and display the bar code content. See DataWedge
on page 84 for more information on launching DataWedge.
Pair the RS507 with the WT6000. See Pairing Using Simple Serial Interface on page 57 or Pairing Using Bluetooth
Human Interface Device on page 58 for more information.
1. Ensure that an application is open on the device and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field).
2. Point the RS507 at a bar code.

3. Press and hold the trigger.
The red laser aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming. Ensure the bar code is within the area formed by the
cross-hairs in the aiming pattern. The aiming dot is used for increased visibility in bright lighting conditions.
The RS507 LEDs light green, a beep sounds to indicate the bar code was decoded successfully. Note that
when the RS507 is in Pick List Mode, the RS507 does not decode the bar code until the center of the crosshair
touches the bar code.
