Configuring Limits-based Recording
Configuring the Limits Recording Type
The recording type determines the recording action of a card when a limit condition is
detected and the limits type is set to Normal mode
Off: No recording when limit detected
Record while limit active: Record scans while the limit condition is active.
Recording stops when the limit condition goes inactive. You may use the pre-
and post-limit periods to extend the recording time. (Used with “normal” limit
type.)
Singleshot: Records a single scan when a limit condition goes active. You may
use the pre- and post-limit recording periods to extend the recording time. This
is a convenient way to record a fixed number of scans each time a limit
condition goes active.
Continuous: Recording starts when a limit condition is detected and continues
until scanning stops. You may define a pre-limit recording buffer size, but post-
limit recording does not apply. (Used with “normal” limit type.)

Configuring Global Limits-based Recording
When a limit condition is activated on a channel, the card broadcasts a "limit active" signal to all
other cards in the scanner. If the scanner is part of a synchronized network, this signal is sent to
all scanners in the network (via the synch cable). You may choose to ignore the signal or you
may choose to start limits-based recoding when the signal is detected. You may have pre- and
post- limit buffers setup for global limits.
