How to use

Power on the SOCKETSCAN S320 and enable Bluetooth on the host device. Follow the scanner’s pairing procedure to establish a Bluetooth connection with a POS, tablet or smartphone. Once paired, position the scanner toward the barcode or QR code at a comfortable distance and press the trigger or activate the scanning function; the scanner captures the code and sends decoded data to the connected device. For use with apps that accept keyboard input, the scanner typically inputs decoded data as keystrokes; dedicated SDKs or companion apps can provide additional integration options when required.

Recommendations

For consistent results, aim the scanner perpendicular to the code and ensure the code surface is clean and well lit. Use a stable Bluetooth connection and place the host device within the recommended wireless range. For heavy daily use, periodically check for firmware or driver updates from the manufacturer to maintain decoding performance and compatibility.
