    Temporary Configuration Mode allows you to test new configuration settings without losing your current configuration setup. Temporary configuration mode remains active until you select Restore/Update Current Configuration or until you switch off the MaxiScan 2200.

  • Page 66: Consecutive Same Read Data Validation

    By default, transmission occurs after a single successful read. To increase the reliability of the data transmitted, you can set the MaxiScan 2200 to validate the data before transmission—it will only transmit data after a specified number of successful consecutive reads have given the same result.

  • Page 67: Timeout Between Identical Consecutive Codes

    This timeout should not be shorter than the Timeout Between Different Consecutive Codes. Example To make your MaxiScan 2200 wait 1 second (= 1000 ms) before it can read the same code again: 1. Scan Compose Timeout Between Identical Consecutive Codes.
