  • Page 21: Timeout Mode

    Timeout Mode The barcode scanner reads the barcode repeatedly during the duration time, set by ”TOTALLIM” after the SYNC input, or continues reading until the decoding is successful. If the barcode scanner cannot decode successfully in the duration time, it stops reading and sends an error code to the host. Typically, MAXIMG is set to a number greater than one.

  • Page 25: External Trigger Mode

    External Trigger Mode The barcode scanner reads the barcode repeatedly during the SYNC input is active. Typically, MAXIMG is set to a number greater than one. The multiple MAXIMG enables the Cycle Buffer Function and the parallel processing of the image capturing and decoding. This can reduce the processing time. The below timing charts explain the behavior of Cycle Buffer Function.

  • Page 26: Continuous Reading Mode

    Continuous Reading Mode In Continuous Reading Mode, the barcode scanner reads repeatedly. It is useful for camera tunings. To put the barcode scanner in this mode, send the serial command “continue” to the barcode scanner, and then send the serial command “g” to start reading. To exit this mode, send the serial command “stop”...

  • Page 27: Cycle Buffer Function

    Cycle Buffer Function Cycle Buffer Function is for moving object, especially for the case it is difficult to catch the object within the field of view. In SYNCMODE=1 (Timeout Mode) or SYNCMODE=2 (External Trigger Mode), the Cycle Buffer Function is enabled when the MAXIMG number is greater than 1 (max. 64). If the Cycle Buffer Function is enabled, the barcode scanner captures multiple images after receiving the SYNC signal and then saves the images to the buffer memory (up to 64 images).

  • Page 28: Concept Of Cycle Buffer

    Concept of Cycle Buffer This function focuses to avoid No Read by missing the object from the sight of V6100 and V6110 series. Decoding process can be postponed and the scanner focuses to obtain images which include the moving object. Please try to configure to finish the capture and decode within the time the scanner saves the images whose number is set by MAXIMG.
