Data Buffer; Wireless Mode - Inateck P6 User Manual

1.2. Data Buffer

During the 2.4GHz connection (Wireless Mode), the Inateck P6 Scanner uses a 256KB
memory as a data buffer, and sends the collected data to the host computer one by
one via the 2.4GHz. The 256KB transmit buffer on the scanner can hold as many as 5000
barcodes bases on Code128.

1.2.1. Wireless Mode

Upon reading a barcode successfully, the scanner will respond with one short beep (high
tone) and its LED indicator will be on with color turning green and then go off quickly.
However, the host computer with 2.4GHz adapter may not receive the data immediately
if the scanner gets out of reaching range of the 2.4GHz adapter. In that case, the scanner
will respond with one short beep (high tone) and its LED indicator will be on with color
becoming blue before going off quickly if the barcode is scanned successfully.
With the 256KB data buffer, the scanner can ignore the transmission status and keep on
reading barcodes until the buffer is full. When the buffer is full, the scanner will respond
with a long beep (high tone), which reminds the user that the space of buffer is not
enough and cannot store any more barcodes. Once the Buffer is full, the user should
return to the range of 2.4GHz connection quickly. When the connection is completed, it
is necessary to double click the trigger if you want to upload the data to the computer
as the data in the buffer won't be uploaded automatically. The data in the buffer will
be sent back to the host computer and the space of buffer will be released. If you want
the barcodes be uploaded to host computer automatically when the connection is
completed, you can read 'Enter Setup ' → 'Enable Auto Uploading' → 'Exit with Save
'barcodes in turn to realize it.
