Auto-off mode (F)
Press the trigger switch to turn ON the illumination LED. The LED turns OFF when the switch is
released or when the BHT completes barcode reading. The LED remains illuminated for a maximum of
5 seconds when the trigger switch is held down.
The BHT can read barcodes while the illumination LED is ON. The BHT is no longer able to read
barcodes after a barcode has been read or the barcode device file is closed.
When the illumination LED turns OFF 5 seconds after pressing the trigger switch, the switch must be
pressed again to read a barcode.
Provided the barcode data that has been read remains inside (i.e., not sent out of) the
barcode buffer, the BHT cannot read new barcodes even if the trigger switch is pressed (the
LED will not light up).
[Ex.] Set the read mode to auto-off, turn the beeper notification OFF, and turn the LED
notification ON.
[VB] MyScanner.RdMode = "F"
[C#] MyScanner.RdMode = "F";
Alternate switching mode (A)
Press the trigger switch to turn ON the illumination LED. Even after releasing the switch, the
illumination LED remains on until the barcode device file is closed or the trigger switch is pressed again.
The BHT can read barcodes while the illumination LED is ON.
Pressing the trigger switch toggles the illumination LED ON and OFF.
After a barcode has been read successfully, provided the barcode data that has been read remains
inside (i.e., not sent out of) the barcode buffer, the BHT cannot read new barcodes even if the trigger
switch is pressed. The LED, however, will turn ON.
[Ex.] Set the read mode to alternate, turn the beeper notification OFF, and turn the LED
notification ON.
[VB] MyScanner.RdMode = "A"
[C#] MyScanner.RdMode = "A"
Continuous reading mode (C)
If this mode is specified, the illumination LED turns ON and remains ON until the barcode device file is
closed, regardless of the position of the trigger switch.
The BHT can read barcodes while the illumination LED is ON.
After a barcode has been read successfully, provided the barcode data that has been read
remains inside (i.e., not sent out of) the barcode buffer, the BHT cannot read new barcodes.
[Ex.] Set the read mode to continuous reading, turn the beeper notification OFF, and turn
the LED notification ON.
[VB] MyScanner.RdMode = "C"
[C#] MyScanner.RdMode = "C";
