Setup Beep

needed to complete the current parameter setting.
2.2 Indicator
There is a dual color indicator on top of the scanner.
Normally it is off, and it will turn red when there is a
good read. The indicator will be green when the

2.3 Scan Modes
There are eight scan modes supported by the CCD
scanner. User can choose the desired scan mode
depending on the application requirements. But, if the
scanner is a switch-less scanner, only Continuous
mode or Testing mode can be selected (other scan
modes involve trigger switch interaction). The
supported scan modes are described below.
