Trigger Toggle Timeout
This sets the length of time the scanner stays in trigger toggle mode before
reverting to scan mode. After scanning the Trigger Toggle Timeout barcode, set
the time-out duration (from 0 to 65 seconds) by scanning digits from the
Programming Chart, beginning on page 309, then Save. Default = 5 seconds.
Note: If this is set to 0, you must repeat the toggle sequence to return to the default
scanning mode. For example, if 2 quick trigger presses puts the scanner into
centering mode and the Trigger Timing is 0, you would have to do 2 quick presses
again to go back to the default scanning mode.
Serial Trigger
You can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger, or using a serial trigger
command (see Trigger Commands on page 242). You must be in a serial interface
mode in order to use serial triggering. Refer to RS232 Serial Port (page 10) or USB
Serial (page 11) for further information. When in serial mode, the scanner scans
until a barcode 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 trigger when
using serial commands to trigger the scanner. Once the scanner has timed out, you
can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger or using a serial trigger
command. After scanning the Read Time-Out barcode, set the time-out duration
(from 0-300,000 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the Programming Chart,
beginning on page 309, then Save. Default = 30,000 ms.
