2 - 4 DS3608 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide
Scanning
The DS3608 digital scanner is in hands-free (presentation) mode when it is placed in the Intellistand. In this mode,
the digital scanner operates in continuous (constant-on) mode, where it automatically decodes a bar code
presented in its field of view.
When the digital scanner is not used for a user-definable period of time, it enters a low power mode in which the
LEDs are turned off or illumination blinks at a low duty cycle until the digital scanner detects an image change (e.g.
motion).
Scanning in Hands-Free (Presentation) Mode
The optional stand adds greater flexibility to DS3608 scanning operation. When the scanner is seated in the
scanner cup, the scanner’s built-in sensor places the scanner in hands-free (presentation) mode. When the
scanner is removed from the stand, it automatically switches to its programmed hand-held triggered mode.
To operate the digital scanner in the Intellistand:
1. Connect the digital scanner to the host (see the appropriate host chapter for information on host
connections).Scanning in Hands-Free Mode
2. Insert the digital scanner in the Intellistand by placing the front of the digital scanner into the scanner cup (see
Figure 1).
3. Use the Intellistand’s adjustment knobs to adjust the height and angle of the digital scanner.
4. Center the symbol in the aiming pattern.
5. Upon successful decode, the digital scanner beeps and the LED turns green. For more information on beeper
and LED definitions, see Table 2-1 on page 2-2.
