SCANNING FEATURES
Scan Mode
Selects the scan operating mode for the reader. Selections are:
Trigger Single: 
When the trigger is pulled, scanning is activated until one of the follow-
ing occurs:
•Stand Mode/Object Detection has elapsed
•a label has been read
•the trigger is released
This mode is associated with typical handheld reader operation: when the trigger is 
pulled, scanning starts and the product scans until the trigger is released, or a label is 
read, or the maximum Stand Mode/Object Detection has elapsed.
Trigger Hold Multiple : 
When the trigger is pulled, scanning starts and the product 
scans until the trigger is released or Stand Mode/Object Detection has elapsed. Reading 
a label does not disable scanning. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple 
reads of the same label while in this mode.
Trigger Pulse Multiple: 
When the trigger is pulled, continuous scanning is activated 
until Stand Mode/Object Detection has elapsed or the trigger has been released and 
pulled again. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple reads of the same label 
while in this mode.
Flashing: 
The reader flashes

 on and off regardless of the trigger status. Flash rate is 
controlled by Flash On Time and Flash Off Time. When Flash is ON the reader reads con-
tinuously. When Flash is OFF scanning is deactivated.
Always On: 
No trigger pull is required to read a bar code. Scanning is continually on. 
Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple reads of the same label while in this 
mode.
Stand Mode/Object Detection: 
No trigger pull is required to read a bar code. Scanning 
turns on automatically when an item is placed in reader's field of view. While in a stand 
watch state, the reader illumination LED goes from dim to maximum bright.
