Chapter 1 — About the SG20B Cordless Scanner
10 SG20B Cordless Scanner + Bluetooth Base Station User’s Guide
Autostand Triggering Mode
Autostand mode is different depending on the scanner model. This
section explains the difference between:
• Autostand for or all models except SG20B1D and
• Autostand for SG20B1D
Autostand For All Models Except SG20B1D
Autostand is a mix of Level and Presentation triggering modes. When
the scanner is not in the Charge Base or Base station it is in Level
mode (pull the trigger to scan a bar code). When you place the scanner
in a Charge Base or Base Station it automatically switches to
Presentation mode. In this mode the scanner turns on automatically
when it detects movement in front of the scanner window. This allows
you to use your scanner for hands-free scanning. To return to Level
mode (handheld scanning) take the scanner out the of the base.
Autostand For SG20B1D
When using the 1D model Autostand is a mix of Level and Flashing
triggering modes (1D model does not support Presentation mode).
When the scanner is not in the Charge Base or Base station it is in
Level mode (pull the trigger to scan a bar code). When you place the
scanner in a Charge Base or Base Station it automatically switches to
Flashing mode. In this mode the scanner is flashing. This allows you
to use your scanner for hands-free scanning. To return to Level mode
(handheld scanning) take the scanner out the of the base.
Note: Autostand mode is not available when using the Desktop
Adjustable stand or the Flexible stand because it does not provide
automatic detection of the scanner. If you are using this stand with
the SG20B you must also enable the Ignore Stand Detect setting using
EasySet version 5.6.5.4 or later. In this case the scanner switches to
Presentation/Flashing mode after a configurable timeout and is not
dependent on the stand.
