Reports, in binary format, 2 bytes,
representing the last and first beams blocked,
e.g., 0x9E 0x17. No delimiters nor spaces are
included, just 2 consecutive data bytes.

If you are using the serial reports, you must
set a timing command.
The scanner has two serial timing modes:
synchronous timing and software trigger. If the
scanner does not respond to your commands
press
ESC
twice and
Enter
.

The synchronous reporting mode gives
serial reports continuously at set intervals.Two
commands control this mode: one sets the timer
interval between reports; the other sets the
scanner for synchronous serial reports.
Syntax:
TSYNC n
where
n
is the time in
milliseconds between serial data reports.
Syntax:
SYN
sets the scanner to use
synchronous timing and puts the scanner in the
reporting mode. Press
ESC
twice after this
command to continue with setup.
Three auxiliary reporting functions can be used
in the synchronous timing mode. These are
functions which can help in processing data
from the scanner.
Delta Mode
Delta Mode inhibits serial reports when the
beam status has not changed from the previous
report.
Syntax:
DELTA Y
turns on this mode
DELTA N
turns off this mode.
