Character Activation Mode
You may use a character sent from the host to trigger the scanner to begin scan-
ning. When the activation character is received, the scanner continues scanning
until either the Character Activation Laser Timeout (page 3-44), the deactivation
character is received (see Deactivation Character on page 46), or a bar code is
transmitted. Scan the following On bar code to use character activation, then use
Activation Character (following) to select the character you will send from the host
to start scanning. Default = Off.
Activation Character
This sets the character used to trigger scanning when using Character Activation
Mode. On the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page 212, find the hex
value that represents the character you want to use to trigger scanning. Scan the
following bar code, then use the Programming Chart to read the alphanumeric
combination that represents that ASCII character. Scan Save to finish.
Character Activation Laser Timeout
You can set a timeout for the length of time the laser remains on and attempting to
decode bar codes when using Character Activation Mode. Set the length (in milli-
seconds) for a timeout by scanning the following bar code, then setting the timeout
(from 1-65535 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the Programming Chart,
then scanning Save. Default = 5000 ms.
