Autostand Triggering Mode

Autostand mode is different depending on the scanner model. This
section explains the difference between:
• Autostand for all models except SG20T1D
• Autostand for SG20T1D
Autostand For All Models Except SG20T1D
Autostand is a mix of Level and Presentation triggering modes. When
in Level mode you simply pull the trigger to scan a bar code (hand
held scanning). After a period of inactivity the scanner switches to
Presentation mode (configurable timeout). In this mode the scanner
turns on automatically when it detects movement in front of the
scanner window. This allows you to use your scanner for hands-free
scanning. To return to Level mode pull the trigger.
Autostand For SG20T1D
When using the 1D model Autostand is a mix of Level and Flashing
triggering modes. When in Level mode you simply pull the trigger to
scan a bar code (handheld scanning). After a period of inactivity the
scanner switches to Flashing mode (configurable timeout). When the
scanner is flashing you can present a bar code in front of the scanner
window and it will be scanned. To return to Level mode pull the
trigger.
