Lists key capabilities like easy use, decoding various codes, USB/UART interface, configuration via codes, and onboard light source.
Explains scanning distance and provides a diagram illustrating white light, red light, and FOV areas.
Explains how skew affects barcode scanning and its acceptable limits.
Details pitch angle's effect on barcode scanning and optimal angles.
Describes connecting the module via USB or UART interfaces and pinouts (VCC, Tx, Rx, GND).
Explains that users can scan setting codes to configure the module, enabling/disabling this function.
Provides QR codes to enable or disable the setting code function for configuration.
Shows QR codes to control whether the output content of setting codes is displayed.
Allows saving the current configuration as a user default setting, overwriting previous defaults.
Restores the module's configuration to the saved user default setting.
Lists QR codes to set various baud rates for UART communication.
Explains how to set the module to keyboard input mode via USB.
Describes setting the module to USB virtual port mode.
Explains the default scanning mode requiring a button press to scan.
Details how to enable or disable the sleep function in manual mode for idle periods.
Sets the maximum scanning time per scan attempt in continuous mode.
Sets the time interval between scanning behaviors.
Sets the max scanning time for per scanning behavior in Sensing Mode.
Sets the interval between scanning and detecting in Sensing Mode.
Sets the time for stabilizing the image after detecting brightness changes in sensing mode.
Sets the maximum scanning time for per scanning behavior in Command Mode.
Describes the white LED for scanning and its three states: Standard, Keep lighting, No light.
Explains the targeting light beam for distance and angle, and its settable states.
Describes setting the buzzer for active/passive operation and driving frequency.
Details setting the driving frequency of the passive buzzer (LF, MF, HF, Active).
Allows setting the working level of the buzzer in active driving mode (High, Low).
Explains how to turn off all warning tones using a specific code.
Allows setting the buzzer behavior when a barcode is scanned successfully.
Allows setting the duration of the warning tone, with a default of 60ms.
Offers keyboard setting codes to match different country layouts (US, Czech, French, etc.).
Provides QR codes to switch between normal and flipped image modes.
Allows adding a definable string before the decoded data.
Allows adding a definable string after the decoded data.
Allows using CODE ID to identify different barcode types.
Restores all barcode information to their default CODE IDs.
Explains how to change the length of the Start segment, up to 255 characters.
Example of outputting only the first thirteen bytes as the Start segment.
Example of outputting the last three bytes as the End segment.
Example of outputting the center four bytes as the Center segment.
Allows modification of RF (Read Fail) information, up to 15 characters.
Enables or disables all barcode types; only setting codes are scannable if all are disabled.
Enables or disables the 360° rotation support, which can affect decoding speed.
