4-5 Scan mode & some global settings
Scan mode:
Single scan- A scanning attempt is active once if trigger button is pressed or the command
STAR_DECODE is received. A scanning attempt stops when there is a successful reading or the
command STOP_DECODE is received or no barcode is decoded after the Stand-by duration elapses.
Continuous scan- The scanner always keeps scanning, and it does not matter when the trigger button
is pressed or Stand-by duration is elapsed or the command STOP_DECODE is received.
Auto-detection- The scanner will start scanning if any nearby object has been detected. The scanner
stops scanning when there is a successful reading or the command STOP_DECODE is received or no
barcode is decoded after the Stand-by duration elapsed. The Auto-detection function works again
only when the object leaves the scanner. The SCAN button is still valid when Auto-detection enabled.
Output-buffering Scan- The SCAN button acts as a toggle switch. Press the SCAN button to activate
or stop scanning. When scanning, it does not matter when Stand-by duration is elapsed or the
command STOP_DECODE is received. And the scanner will store the barcode data into a buffer
(buffer size: 1K byte). Until the SCAN button is pressed again to stop scanning, the scanner will send
all the barcode data in the buffer to host. When the unused space in the buffer is not enough to store
the current barcode data, the scanner will beep to warn and discard the current barcode data.
Note: Restoring the default settings by the host command or scanning the barcode that will not affect
the scan mode settings.
Standby duration: The duration time for a single scanning attempt.
Same barcode delay time: If a barcode has been scanned and output once successfully, the laser beam
must be off or moved away from the barcode beyond delay time to active next scanning the same
barcode. When this feature is set to be “0xFF”, then the delay time is indefinite.
Multiple confirm: If this parameter is set to be larger than zero, the scanner will require several
successful reads of same-decoded-data to confirm a valid reading. The number of successful reads can
be different according to different types of barcode. As the number of Multiple confirm gets larger, the
scanner’s aggressiveness decreases. The number of successful reads required for different types of
barcode is listed below, which is related to the parameter of Multiple confirm.
