Trigger Mode (continued)
Two Stage - Option 1
When the trigger is pulled, an aiming dot appears. This aiming dot remains while the trigger is pulled. When the
trigger is released, the aiming dot automatically turns into a standard laser scanning beam for a full decode
session. The laser scanning beam stays on until the laser-on timeout occurs or a decode occurs. If the trigger
is pulled again while in a decode session, the scanner beam returns to an aiming dot.
Two Stage - Option 2
When the trigger is pulled, an aiming dot appears. When the trigger is released, the aiming dot turns off. Pulling
the trigger twice in rapid succession turns on the standard laser scanning beam for a full decode session. The
laser scanning beam, stays on until the laser-on timeout occurs, a decode occurs, or the trigger is released.

Aim Duration

When the scanner is in Level trigger mode (default mode), Aim Duration sets the amount of time the aiming dot
is seen before turning into a scanning beam. This parameter has no affect when the scanner is in either of the
Two Stage trigger modes. See
The aim duration is programmable in 0.1 second increments, from 0.0 to 9.9 seconds. The default Aim
Duration is 0.0 seconds. When set to 0.0 seconds, no aiming pattern appears before a decode session.
To set an aim duration, scan the bar code below. Then scan two numeric bar codes, available in
Numeric Bar Codes, that correspond to the desired aim duration. Durations less than 1.0 seconds must have a
leading zero. For example, to set an aim duration of 0.5 seconds, scan the bar code below, followed by the '0'
and the '5' bar codes. In case of an error, or to change the selection, scan
