Serial Trigger Mode
You can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger, or using a serial trig-
ger command (see
Trigger Commands on page 11-4). When in serial mode,
the scanner scans until a bar code has been read or until the deactivate com-
mand is sent. The scanner can also be set to turn itself off after a specified time
has elapsed (see
Read Time-Out , which follows).
Read Time-Out
Use this selection to set a time-out (in milliseconds) of the scanner’s trigger
when using serial commands to trigger the scanner. Once the scanner has
timed out, you can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger or
using a serial trigger command. After scanning the
Read Time-Out bar
code, set the time-out duration (from 0-300,000 milliseconds) by scanning
digits on the
Programming Chart inside the back cover, then scanning
Save . Default = 30,000 ms.
Presentation Mode
Presentation Mode uses ambient light and scanner illumination to detect bar
codes. When in Presentation Mode, the LEDs remain dim until a bar code is
presented to the scanner, then the aimer turns on and the LEDs turn up to read
the code. If the light level in the room is not high enough, Presentation Mode
may not work properly
Note: If you are using a cordless charge base in Presentation Mode, the battery
will not charge unless the power supply is plugged into the base’s
auxiliary power port.
Scan one of the following bar codes to program either your Xenon or your Granit
device for Presentation Mode.
