Batch Mode

The scanner supports three versions of batch mode. When the scanner is configured for any of the batch modes, it attempts to store
bar code data (not parameter bar codes) until transmission is initialized, or the maximum number of bar codes are stored. When a bar
code is saved successfully, a good decode beep sounds and the LED flashes green. If the scanner is unable to store a new bar code,
a low/high/low/high out of memory beep sounds. (See pages 2-3,
In all modes, calculate the amount of data (number of bar codes) the scanner can store as follows:
Number of storable bar codes = 2,000 bytes of memory / (number of characters in the bar code + 3).

Modes of Operation

• Normal (default) - Do not batch data. The scanner attempts to transmit every scanned bar code.
• Out of Range Batch Mode - The scanner starts storing bar code data when it loses its connection to a remote device (for
example, when a user holding the scanner walks out of range). Data transmission is triggered by reestablishing the
connection with the remote device (for example, when a user holding the scanner walks back into range).
• Standard Batch Mode - The scanner starts storing bar code data after Enter Batch Mode is scanned. Data transmission
is triggered by scanning Send Batch Data.
Transmission is halted if the connection to the remote device is lost.
• Cradle Contact Batch Mode - The scanner starts storing bar code data when Enter Batch Mode is scanned. Data
transmission is triggered by insertion of the scanner into the cradle.
If the scanner is removed from the cradle during batch data transfer, transmission halts until the scanner is re-
inserted in the cradle.
In all modes, transmissions are halted if the scanner is moved out of range. The scanner resumes when it is back in range. If a bar
code is scanned while batch data is transmitted it is appended to the end of the batched data; parameter bar codes are not stored.
