Operating Modes
8.1
Scan Mode
The imager can be set to operate in one of several scanning modes.
See the OPM for more information and settings for any of the options:
Trigger Single (Default) —
This mode is associated with typical
handheld reader operation. Motion Sense is active and if the scanner
detects motion the aiming pattern is turned on. When the trigger is
pulled, illumination is turned on and the scanner attempts to read a
label. Scanning is activated until one of the following occurs:
-
the programmable “maximum scan on time”
1
has elapsed
-
a label has been read
-
the trigger is released
Trigger Pulse Multiple —
Scanning begins when the trigger is
pulled and continues after the trigger is released, until the trigger is
pulled again or until the programmable “maximum scan on time”
1
has
elapsed. Reading a label does not disable scanning. Double Read Tim-
eout
1
prevents undesired multiple reads while in this mode.
Trigger Hold Multiple —
When the trigger is pulled, scanning
starts and the product scans until the trigger is released or “maximum
scan on time”
1
has elapsed. Reading a label does not disable scan-
ning. Double Read Timeout
1
prevents undesired multiple reads in this
mode.
Always On —
The illuminator is always ON and the reader is always
ready for code reading. Double Read Timeout
1
prevents undesired
multiple reads.
Flashing —
The reader illuminator flashes on and off regardless of the
trigger status. Code reading takes place only during the Flash On
2
time. Double Read Timeout
1
prevents undesired multiple reads.
Stand Mode —
The scanner looks for changes within its field-of-view.
The Aiming Pattern is always on to show the optimum reading area. If a
predefined amount of movement is detected, the red illumination
switches on. Scanning continues until a label is read or "maximum
scan on time" is reached.
