Active Scan Area

The active scan area is the area in front of the scanner window in which a bar
code can be decoded. The dotted area represents the active scan area.

Sleep Mode

The scanner automatically enters Sleep mode when it has been inactive for a
specified length of time. The scanner has two levels of sleep: laser and motor.
In laser sleep mode, after ten seconds of inactivity the laser pulses at a 50%
rate, and then drops to 3% after a specified time. In motor sleep mode, the
scanner is programmed to turn off the motor and the laser.
The scanner is awakened from either sleep mode by pressing the Volume
Control & Wakeup button. In laser sleep mode, the scanner also is awakened
by presenting a bar code at the scanner window.
