Reasons for "Wrong" Scans
If special characters have been used in the barcode scanner (for example, zZyY or äöüÄÖÜ), this may lead to incorrect scans. By default, the scanner is set to an English QWERTY keyboard. If the tablet is set to a German QWERTZ layout, these characters cannot be correctly identified. You can change the language of the scanner to German, Italian, or French using one of the barcodes in the booklet (page 6).
