JADAK FM-8/FM-9 User’s Manual
Aimer Delay
The FM-8/FM-9’s aimer allows a delay time for the user to aim the engine before actual
scanning begins. During this delay, the aiming light will appear, but the scanner’s illumination
won’t show, until the delay time has passed. During this delay, barcodes cannot be scanned.
This command sets the Aimer Delay Time in steps of 1 millisecond from 1ms up to 4000ms
(4 seconds). Default = Off.
Several commonly used Aimer Delay menu command barcodes are included below.
If a different delay time other than those provided is needed, it can be set either by sending
the serial command
AIM_DLY x
(where ‘x’ is a value between 0 and 4000), or by
scanning the top barcode below and then set the time by scanning the digit codes and
the SAVE barcode in
Appendix B
. Please contact JADAK if assistance is needed.
