As a result, the scanner will give the following barcode output: [<STX>] [BAR CODE DATA] Preamble None (*) <STX> It could be possible that you need other Preambles, in that case please use VEGA Utility tool or contact Scantech-ID Technical Support Department.
Page 112
As a result, the scanner will give the following barcode data output: [BAR CODE DATA] [<ETX>] Postamble None CR+LF (*) <ETX> It could be possible that you need other Postambles, in that case use VEGA utility Tool or contact Scantech-ID Technical Support Department.
SCANNING TRIGGERING <Level> A reading session begins (lighting and decode processing on) when beam is activated and stops when beam is deactivated. Continuous Scanning When the scanner is turned on a continuous reading session begins (lighting and decode processing on). Note: The continue scanning mode doesn’t support the V-1020BT.
Scantech-ID After a period of inactivity lasting the time specified by the timeout, the scan engine starts flashing, checking for a barcode to be read. When a barcode is detected, the lighting automatically turns on and stays on until another period of inactivity (timeout).
This mode allows you to switch from Flashing trigger mode to Level trigger mode. Autostand begins in flashing mode: At power up the lighting and decoding are on (no need to activate the trigger line) and after a period of inactivity lasting the time specified by the trigger timeout, the scanner starts flashing.
Scantech-ID 4 sec 6 sec GOOD READ MODE When active, the scan engine stops the reading session after a successful decoding. - NOTE: this parameter is NOT used with continuous and continuous + flashing modes. Active (*) Not Active...
Scantech-ID IMAGER MODE You can set the best reading performance of your VEGA by adjusting certain imager parameters. To choose the best reading performance, depends on the environment, your used application and type of barcodes. Area mode for decode 1D and 2D barcodes.
