Auto-reconnect on Bar Code Data: The scanner auto-reconnects when you scan a bar code. With this
option, a delay can occur when transmitting the first characters. The scanner sounds a decode beep upon
bar code scan, followed by a connection, a page timeout, a rejection beep, or a transmission error beep.
Select this option to optimize battery life on the scanner and mobile device. Note that auto-reconnect does
not occur on rejection and cable unplug commands.
•
Auto-reconnect Immediately: When the scanner loses connection, it attempts to reconnect. If a page
timeout occurs, the scanner attempts reconnect on a trigger pull. Select this option if the scanner's battery life
is not an issue and you do not want a delay to occur when the first bar code is transmitted. Note that
auto-reconnect does not occur on rejection and cable unplug commands.
•
Disable Auto-reconnect: When the scanner loses connection, you must re-establish it manually.
