Scan Mode & Some Global Settings - Mindeo ES4600 User Manual

6-6 Scan mode & some global settings
Scan mode:
Good-read off – The trigger (Pin - 12 TRIG) must be pulled down once to activate scanning. The
light source of the embedded scanner turns off when there is a successful reading or no code is
decoded after the Scan standby duration elapsed.
Momentary – Pin TRIG acts as a switch. Pull down pin TRIG to activate scanning and pull up the
trigger to stop scanning. The light source of the embedded scanner stops scanning when there is a
successful reading or no code is decoded after the Scan standby duration elapsed.
Alternate – Pin TRIG acts as a toggle switch. Pull pin TRIG to activate or stop scanning.
Continuous – The embedded scanner always keeps scanning, and it does not matter when pin TRIG
is pulled down or Scan standby duration is elapsed.
Host – A START_DECODE command issues the triggering signal. In this mode, the embedded
scanner interprets an actual trigger pull as a Good-read off scanning option. There is a practical
5-4 Decode by commands
application in
Infrared-detecting – Objects detected by the embedded scanner's infrared sensor issues the
triggering signal. In this mode, the embedded scanner interprets an actual trigger pull as a
Good-read off scanning option.
Same barcode delay time for 1D symbols: This feature is activated only when the Scan mode is in
alternate or continuous mode. Once a 1D barcode has been scanned and output successfully, the
optics module's lights must be off or moved away from the barcode beyond delay time to active a next
scanning on the same barcode.
Same barcode delay time for 2D symbols: This feature is activated only when the Scan mode is in
alternate or continuous mode. Once a 2D barcode has been scanned and output successfully, the
optics module's lights must be off or moved away from the barcode beyond delay time to active a next
scanning on the same barcode.
Multiple confirm: If it is enabled, the embedded scanner will require a several times of
same-decoded-data to confirm a valid reading.
Global Max./Min. code length for 1D symbols: These two lengths are defined as the valid range of
decoded barcode data length. Make sure that the minimum length setting is no greater than the
maximum length setting. When setting of minimum and maximum reading length is equal, the
embedded scanner works as a fixed-length barcode decoder.
Notes:
1. Please set the max./min. length for individual barcode in later chapters, if a special demand is
requested.
2. Both data and check digits contribute to code length.
3. These two settings have no effect on the types of barcode with fixed-length, e.g. UPC-A, UPC-E,
EAN-13 and China Post.
Global G1-G6 string selection: The embedded scanner offer one or two string group for all types of
barcode. By setting one or two digits to indicate which string group you want to apply. You may refer to
