Light Source On Time
This function is a pre-defined light source time out counter for Alternative Mode, Presentation Mode and Level
Mode. The scanner keeps the light source on till the pre-defined light source on time is up.
Hands-free Time Out
The Presentation Mode, Force Mode and Flash Mode are referred to as “Hands-free” mode. The Hands-free
mode will be automatically changed to manual trigger mode when you press the trigger. You can remain the
scanner in manual trigger mode by setting the Hands Free Time-Out. Once the time-out duration is up (if there
isn’t any trigger operation), the imager will revert to the original hands free mode.
Time Delay to Low Power Mode
This function sets the time for the scanner to enter low power mode after any scanning activity. For corded
scanners this setting is only available if the scanner is in low power mode.
