Using Picklist Mode

  1. Point the scanner toward the label without aiming directly at a barcode.
  2. When the aiming reticle appears, move it over the specific barcode you want to scan.
  3. The device decodes only the barcode under the crosshair, ignoring nearby barcodes.

From Zebra: Pick List Mode allows the user to selectively decode a barcode when more than one barcode is in the device's field of view. Move the aiming crosshair over the required barcode to decode only this barcode. This feature is ideal for picklists containing multiple barcodes and manufacturing or transport labels containing more than one barcode type (either 1D or 2D).
