Selecting the Scan Mode
To configure the imager for use with or without the Hands Free Stand, read the descriptions below and
scan the programming bar code associated with the desired mode.
Scan Stand Mode and Presentation Mode are referred to as “hands free” modes. If the imager’s trigger is
pulled when using a hands free mode, the imager changes to manual trigger mode for a configurable
duration which can be set using the Product Reference Guide
1
(PRG). Once the time-out value is reached,
(if there have been no further trigger pulls) the imager reverts to the original hands free mode.
Scan Stand Mode
When a unit is in Scan Stand Mode, the LEDs shine at the Scan Stand Symbol
2
on the base of the stand
which tells it to remain idle. When the Scan Stand Symbol is blocked from the imager’s view, the imager
turns the LEDs on at the configured power level (Default High) and attempts to find and decode bar codes
in its field of view.
NOTE
The imager automatically adjusts the illumination LEDs
t
o the lowest light level possible to maintain a good lock
on the Scan Stand Symbol. When a bar code is presented,
the imager’s light levels adjust to the saved setting. See
the Product Reference Guide
1
(PRG) if you wish to pro-
gram the LED Power Level.
Presentation Mode
This programs the imager to work in Presentation Mode, which does not require the imager to be pointed
at the Scan Stand Symbol. When an imager is in Presentation Mode, the LEDs can be configured to turn
off immediately after a bar code is decoded or to stay on and continue scanning for a short time after.
See the PRG
1
for advanced programming options for this feature.
Manual/Serial Trigger Mode
Select this mode when you are removing the imager from service with the stand. When in this mode, you
can activate the imager either by pressing the trigger, or using a serial trigger command, depending upon
advanced options that have been set using the PRG
1
.
• Manual Trigger Mode — The imager scans until a bar code is read, or until the trigger is released.
• Serial Mode — The imager scans until a bar code has been read or until the deactivate comman
d is sent.
