Abstract
A barcode reader system includes a barcode reader, a docking station, and a magnet. The barcode reader includes a housing and a first mating structure connected to the housing. The docking station includes a second mating structure to mate with the first mating structure. The second mating structure and the first mating structure are capable of forming a coupling between the barcode reader and the docking station. The magnet produces magnetic forces that strengthen the coupling between the barcode reader and the docking station. The docking station may include the magnet. The barcode reader may include a magnetic field detector and may enter a presentation mode in response to the magnetic field detector detecting a magnetic field.
