Base Low Power Mode

You may want the base to draw less power when it is being powered by a portable data
terminal or laptop. Use Base Low Power mode to tell the base to draw less power.

Note: Using Base Low Power mode slows decode time.

Battery Conservation Mode

In order to preserve scanner battery power, you can set the scanner to "go to sleep" after
the scanner or its base has been idle for a certain length of time. A scanner "checks in"
with its base on a periodic basis. If the base has been turned off, you can set the scanner
to turn itself off as well (sleep mode). If you prefer, you can set the scanner to turn itself
off regardless of the base's state (nap or doze mode). Once a scanner is off, or asleep, a
single trigger pull wakes it up and begins the reassociation process. A second trigger
pull is required to scan a code.
Don't Check for Network Base Before Timeout If you want the scanner to turn off after
a period of inactivity, regardless of the state of the base, scan this bar code (nap mode),
then scan the desired timeout selection. When the scanner has been idle for the timeout
length, it turns itself off. If the scanner has shown no activity for 1 hour, it will
automatically shut off by default.
Check for Network Before Timeout If you want the scanner to turn off when the base is
powered down, scan this bar code (sleep mode), then scan the desired timeout selection.
If the scanner gets no response from the base after the timeout length, the scanner turns
off.
