Phase Off Event:  
Specifies whether the reading phase is closed on a timeout or phase off event.
The following selections are available: 
• Trigger Stop: the reading phase ends when the ser
ial stop character (or string) is received. 
Timeout is disabled.
• Timeout: the reading phase ends when the timeout is expir
ed. Serial stop character (or 
string) is ignored.
• Trigger Stop - Timeout: the reading phase ends when the first event occured.
Timeout (Scanning Active Time option):  
Specifies the maximum duration for the reading 
phase. Selections: from 1 to 255 seconds in 1 second increments.
Automatic Mode
In Automatic mode, the scanner is continuously scanning. When a label enters the reading zone 
and is decoded, no more decodes and reading phases are allowed until the label has left the 
reading area. In order to guarantee identification of the code in the reading zone, a threshold 
specifies the number of scans after the successful decode that the scanner will wait before 
rearming the reading phase. The transmission of the decoded label depends on the 
configuration of the Transmission Mode parameter.
Automatic/Trigger Object Sense 
Automatic/TOS mode is the same as Automatic mode but with the illumination system 
normally off*. As an object or bar code enters the reading area, illumination is turned ON. 
Illumination will return to the Presentation Illumination Control setting as the reading phase is 
closed (see Automatic Mode above).
  *Default. The illumination can be programmed
 for several different operation states 
(off, dim or on) while the reading phase is not active. See 
"Presentation Illumination 
Control" on page 86

Deactivation Event:  
Selects the event the line is deactivated on. Selectable events are Disabled,

Deactivation Timeout:  
Related to the previous parameter, this feature sets the deactivation 
timeout for the output.
