Manual Trigger Modes
When in manual trigger mode, the scanner scans until a bar code is read, or until the button is released. Two modes are avail-
able, Normal and Enhanced. Normal mode offers good scan speed and the longest working ranges (depth of field).
Enhanced mode will give you the highest possible scan speed but slightly less range than Normal mode. Enhanced mode is
best used when you require a very fast scan speed and don’t require a long working range. Default = Manual Trigger-Normal.
LED Illumination - Manual Trigger
If you wish to set the illumination LED brightness, scan one of the bar codes below. This sets the LED illumination for the
scanner when the button is pushed. Default = High.
Note: The LEDs are like a flash on a camera. The lower the ambient light in the room, the brighter the LEDs need to be so
the scanner can “see” the bar codes.
Serial Trigger Mode
You can activate the scanner either by pushing the button, or using a serial trigger command (see Trigger Commands on page
11-3). When in serial mode, the scanner scans until a bar code has been read or until the deactivate command is sent. The
scanner can also be set to turn itself off after a specified time has elapsed (see Read Time-Out, which follows).
Read Time-Out
Use this selection to set a time-out (in milliseconds) of the scanner’s button when using serial commands to trigger the
scanner. Once the scanner has timed out, you can activate the scanner either by pushing the button or using a serial trig-
ger command. After scanning the Read Time-Out bar code, set the time-out duration (from 0-300,000 milliseconds) by
scanning digits on the Programming Chart inside the back cover, then scanning Save. Default = 30,000 ms.
