ATTENTION
1. If either your hand or the Velcro strap is soaking wet, the Laser beam may automatically light up without touch trigger. The scanner can still work well in this condition but it will waste battery power, so it is recommended to dry both your hand and the Velcro strap.
2. The following gloves have been tested to be working with the touch- activated button: latex examination glove, antistatic glove, white cotton glove (with or without latex coating), safety glove, and rubber glove. However, it is still recommended to operate with bare hand or thin glove to ensure the responsiveness of button.
3. Don’t need to tighten Velcro strap too much. Just make the strap fit your finger so that the scanner will not easily move while being touched for trigger. We also suggest to release the strap from your finger for 1 minute after 2 hours of continuous use if your finger feels uncomfortable.
