Reading Parameters Reading Parameters Point the reader at the target and pull the trigger to enable the aiming system and the illuminator (red beam) to capture and decode the image. The aiming system will briefly switch off during the acquisition time and if no code is decoded will switch on again before the next acquisition.
Reading Parameters Good Read Green Spot Duration Successful reading can be signaled by a good read green spot. Use the bar codes below to specify the duration of the good read pointer beam after a good read. ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE Green Spot Duration = Disable (Green Spot is Off) Green Spot Duration = Short (300 msec) Green Spot Duration = Medium (500 msec)
Scan Modes Scan Modes The imager can operate in one of several scanning modes. When the trigger is pulled, scanning is activat- Trigger Single — ed until one of the following occurs: - a programmable duration has elapsed - a label has been read - the trigger is released This mode is associated with typical handheld reader opera- tion.
Scan Modes Pick Mode Pick Mode is a Decoding and Transmission process where bar codes that are not within the configurable distance from the center of the aiming pattern are not acknowledged or trans- mitted to the host. It is active only while the scanner is in Trig- ger Single mode.
