Reading Parameters
Label Gone Timeout
This feature sets the time after the last label segment is seen before the reader 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 lead-
ing zeroes to yield three digits. For example: 0 = 000, 5 = 005, 20 = 020, etc.
3. Go to page 92 and 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 alphanumeric
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.
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to exit Programming
Mo
de.
This completes the procedure. See Tabl e 37 for some examples of how to set this feature.
Table 37. Label Gone Timeout Setting Examples
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
beginning.
