Reading Parameters
Label Gone Timeout
This feature sets the time after the last label segment is seen before the scanner prepares for 
a new label. The timeout can be set within a range of 10 milliseconds to 2,550 milliseconds 
(2.55 seconds) in 10ms increments. Label Gone Timeout does not apply to scan modes that 
require a trigger pull for each label that is read
Follow these instructions to set this feature:
1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds.
2. Divide the desired setting by 10 (setting is in 10ms increments). Pad the result with 
le
ading zeroes to yield three digits. For example: 0 = 000, 5 = 005, 20 = 020, etc.
3. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to enter Programming Mode.
4. Scan the bar code: SELECT LABEL GONE TIMEOUT SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate three alpha-numeric characters 
from the keypad in 
Appendix D, Key-
pad
 representing the duration which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a 
two-beep indication after the last character.
NOTE
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar code to 
abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the begin-
ning.
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to exit Programming Mode.
This completes the procedure. See the table below
 for examples of how to set this feature.
