Operating Mode
Scan Mode
The reader can be set to operate in one of several scan-
ning modes. See the PRG for more information and set-
tings for any of the options:
Trigger Single (Default) —
When the trigger is partially
pulled, the aiming is turned on. The scanner is activated
when the trigger is completely pulled. Scanning is acti-
vated until one of the following occurs:
•
a programmable duration
1
has elapsed
•
a label has been read
•
the trigger is released
Trigger Hold Multiple —
When the trigger is pulled, scan-
ning starts and the product scans until the trigger is
released or “maximum scan on time”
1
has elapsed. Read-
ing a label does not disable scanning. Double Read Time-
out
1
prevents undesired multiple reads in this mode.
Trigger Pulse Multiple —
When the trigger is pulled and
released, scanning is activated until programmable dura-
tion
1
has elapsed or the trigger has been pulled again to
transition to another state. Double Read Timeout
1
pre-
vents undesired multiple reads while in this mode.
Flashing —
The laser flashes
1
on and off regardless of the
trigger status.
Always On —
No trigger pull is required to read a bar code.
Scanning is continually on. If the trigger is pulled, the
reader acts as if it is in Trigger Single (Default) Mode. Dou-
ble Read Timeout
1
prevents undesired multiple reads
while in this mode.
