Presentation Mode 

 

This programs the imager to work in Presentation mode. The LEDs are either off or at the lowest power for 
ambient conditions until a bar code is presented to the imager. Then the LEDs turn on automatically to read 
the code.  Presentation Mode uses ambient light to detect the bar codes.  If the light level in the room is not 
high enough, Presentation Mode may not work properly.  

 

 

 

Presentation LED Behavior after Decode 

 

When an imager is in presentation mode, the LEDs remain on and continue scanning for a short time after a 
bar code is decoded.  If you wish to turn the LEDs off immediately after a bar code is decoded, scan the 

LEDs Off

 bar code, below. Default = LEDs On.  

 

 

                * LEDs On 

 

LEDs Off 

 

Presentation Sensitivity 

 

Presentation Sensitivity is a numeric range that increases or decreases the imager's reaction time to bar 
code presentation.  To set the sensitivity, scan the 

Sensitivity

 bar code, then scan the degree of sensitivity 

(from 0-20) from the inside back cover, and 

Save

. 0 is the most sensitive setting, and 20 is the least 

sensitive. Default = 1.  

 

Sensitivity  

Hands Free Time Out 

 

The Scan Stand and Presentation Modes are referred to as “hands free” modes.  If the imager’s 
trigger is pulled when using a hands free mode, the imager changes to manual trigger mode. You 
can set the time the imager should remain in manual trigger mode by setting the Hands Free Time 
Out.  Once the time out value is reached, (if there have been no further trigger pulls) the imager 
reverts to the original hands free mode.  

Scan the 

Hands Free Time Out

 bar code, then scan the time out duration (from 0-300,000 

milliseconds) from Appendix D, and 

Save

. Default = 5,000 ms.
