Batch Reading
When this function is enabled, you can scan multiple barcodes one by one continuously upon one trigger
event. The scanner reports a good read beep and indication only if all bar codes set by the “Batch Reading
Rule” are read. Otherwise, the scanner reports an error beep and indication. The scanned data will be
transmitted according to the preset sequence which is defined in “Batch Reading Rule” regardless the
scanned order of those barcodes.
Batch Reading function is only available for 2D Hand-held scanners (IDM2xx series).
Batch Reading function is only available in Trigger Mode.
Batch Reading is not available when Multiple Read Mode or Center Alignment is turned on.

To set the Batch Reading rule:
1. Scan the PROGRAM code.
