Using Your DataMan 260 DataMan 260 supports a variety of trigger modes: Single: Acquires a single image and attempts to decode any symbol it contains or more than one symbol in cases where multicode is enabled. The reader relies on an external trigger source. Presentation: Repeatedly scans for a symbol and decodes it whenever one is detected.
Using Your DataMan 260 Training and Trigger Modes Training is supported for the following trigger modes: Single trigger Burst mode Self trigger Continuous mode Training Training your reader with the expected symbology may help increase decode yield. To train your reader, place a code in front of the reader and do one of the following: Press and hold the trigger button ( ) for at least 3 seconds and the release it.
