Scanning mode

Description

Manual Trigger

When in manual trigger mode, the scanner scans until a bar code is read, or until the trigger is released. Two modes are available, Normal and Enhanced. Normal mode offers good scan speed and the longest working ranges (depth of field). Enhanced mode will give you the highest possible scan speed but slightly less range than Normal mode. Enhanced mode is best used when you require a very fast speed and don’t require a long working range. Default = Manual Triger-Normal.

Presentation Mode

Presentation Mode uses ambient light and scan engine illumination to detect bar codes. When in Presentation Mode, the LEDs remain dim until a bar code is presented to the scan engine, then the aimer turns on and the LEDs turn up to read the code. If the light level in the room is not high enough, Presentation Mode may not work properly.

Streaming Presentation Mode

When in Streaming Presentation mode, the scan engine’s aimer goes out after a short time, but the scan illumination remains on all the time to continuously search for bar codes. Two modes are available, Normal and Enhanced. Normal mode offers good scan speed and the longest working ranges (depth of field). Enhanced mode will give you the highest possible scan speed but slightly less range than Normal mode. Enhanced mode is best used when you require a very fast scan speed and don’t require a long working range.

Host Notify Mode

Host Notify Mode bypasses the decoder and notifies the host that there has been a hardware trigger pull. When in Host Notify Mode, it is up to the host to initiate an Image Snap and/or an Image Ship command. It is also up to the host to switch to another trigger mode.

Snap and Ship Mode

Snap and Ship mode, allows you to bypass the decoder and ship an imagedirectly to the host. In this mode, an image is taken and shipped upon eachtrigger pull, instead of being sent to the decoder. Snap and Ship is useful whenyou are using your own decoder.
