STEP 3: Assign Trigger Button(s)

You must set up a mechanism for triggering the CF RFID Reader
Card. Hardware button(s) are the best triggering method from a
handheld device.
If you have the CF RFID Reader-Scan Card 6M/6P, SocketScan allows
you to configure up to four buttons for launching SocketScan
and/or triggering the RFID reader or bar code scanner.
Please refer to the chart below to determine which SocketScan
functions you would like to assign to buttons on your device.
What happens when you press a button assigned
Program
to this program?
If SocketScan is not open, SocketScan will launch.
If SocketScan is open and you have the CF RFID Reader Card
6E, the RFID reader will activate.
If SocketScan is open and you have the CF RFID Reader-Scan
Card 6M/6P, either the RFID reader or the laser scanner will
activate, depending on which mode the card is in.
If you assign only one hardware button for use with
the CF RFID Reader Card, this is the program that
should be assigned.
If you do not assign a button to SocketScan, you can only
start SocketScan by manually tapping through menus.
If you are using the CF RFID Reader-Scan Card 6M/6P, this
program will switch the device from RFID mode to bar code
scanning mode, or vice versa. This is designed to be used
with a trigger button assigned to SocketScan. You can also
use Socket Trigger Select to toggle to other Socket Mobile
bar code scanners that use a software trigger.
The laser bar code scanner will activate. SocketScan must be
running.
The RFID reader will activate. SocketScan must be running.
