Unlike handheld scanners that require picking up and pointing, this scanner operates in automatic sense mode — it detects and reads barcodes the moment they pass the scan window, without any button press required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dual scanning capability sets this apart from standard fixed scanners. Switch between scan window mode for standard barcode labels and screen scan mode for reading QR codes displayed on customer phones, tablets or screens — covering both physical product scanning and digital ticket or voucher scanning in the same device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho is this scanner for?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRetail checkout counters that need a fixed hands-free scanner. POS terminals in cafes, restaurants and hospitality. Conveyor belt operations in logistics and fulfilment. Libraries and asset management stations.
