Scan Modes
28 QuickScan™ QBT2400
Scan Modes
The imager can operate in one of several scanning modes.
Trigger Single —
When the trigger is pulled, scanning is acti-
vated until one of the following occurs:
• a programmable duration
1
has elapsed
• a label has been read
• the trigger is released
This mode is associated with typical handheld reader opera-
tion.
Trigger Hold Multiple —
When the trigger is pulled, scanning
starts and the product scans until the trigger is released or a
programmable duration
1
has elapsed. Reading a label does
not disable scanning. Double Read Timeout
1
prevents unde-
sired multiple reads while in this mode.
Trigger Pulse Multiple —
When the trigger is pulled and
released, scanning is activated until programmable duration1
has elapsed or the trigger has been pulled again to transition
to another state. Double Read Timeout
1
prevents undesired
multiple reads while in this mode.
Flashing —
The reader flashes
1
on and off regardless of the
trigger status.
Always On —
No trigger pull is required to read a bar code.
Scanning is continually on. If the trigger is pulled, the reader
acts as if it is in Trigger Single Mode. Double Read Timeout
1
prevents undesired multiple reads while in this mode.
Stand Mode —
No trigger pull is required to read a bar code.
Scanning is turned on automatically when an item is placed in
the reader’s field of view.
Double Read Timeout
1
prevents undesired multiple reads
while in this mode.

NOTE
If you are using a SMART STAND like the STD-
AUTO-QD24-BK or WH, or the STD-AUTFLX-
QD24-BK or WH, Stand Mode is turned on auto-
matically when the scanner is positioned into
the stand and, if the trigger is pulled, the reader
acts as if it is in single read mode.
