3.1 Trigger Mode
In trigger mode, MT84G starts scanning barcode when trigger pin = low. If
trigger stays low within LED timeout, the scanning continues. When LED
timeout expires or a barcode is scanned, the scanning stops. To restart
scanning, the host must reset trigger level first and then pull trigger low again.

3.1.1 Trigger Condition
When trigger condition = level, the trigger pin must always stay low during a
scanning operation. The scanning will not stop until a barcode is scanned or
LED timeout expires. When trigger condition = pulse, MT84G starts scanning
whenever a low level pulse at trigger pin is detected, and will continue
scanning until a barcode is scanned or LED timeout expires.
