Alternatively using the stylus, you can tap once directly on the value on the right
column, continue tapping until the desired value is reached.
To activate a new configuration select the File ->Save Menu to send the new
configuration to the barcode decoding software and save the new configuration. This
will save the configuration to non-volatile memory preventing loss at the next system
reset.
Reader Parameters
The barcode reading parameters and values are dependent upon the type of scanner
module mounted in your terminal. For a detailed list of parameters and of their
configuration procedures, please refer to the SDK Help file on the CD.
Scan Parameters
The Scan Parameters are common to all scanner modules and allow control of the
scanning device. The Scan parameters are described as follows:
Scan Timeout
: the maximum time, in milliseconds, during which the scanner
remains on without decoding any barcode.
Beep Duration
: the time interval, in milliseconds, during which the beeper will sound
when the scanner reads a code. To disable the beeper, set this value to 0.
Beep Frequency
: determines the frequency in Hertz of the beeper.
Continuous Mode
: when enabled, the scanner can only be turned off by releasing
the SCAN key, or if Soft Trigger is enabled, by the application program. Continuous
Mode overrides Scan Timeout.
Keyboard Emulation
: if enabled all scanned data are transformed into keyboard
events and can therefore be displayed and saved to a file as if input from the terminal
keyboard.
Soft Trigger
: when enabled, the laser can be turned on/off by the application
software.
Scan Always On
: enables the scanner for barcode reading independently from the
application software.
