Aimer Modes

This feature allows you to select from the three options listed below:

Aimer Mode Off

Aimer Mode is disabled.

Interlaced Mode

In Interlaced Mode, the illumination and aiming timing is automatically synchronized to the imager exposure period by the Optics Module. The module turns illumination on while the image is being exposed, and it turns the aiming off at all other times. Interlaced Mode provides the low- est overall current draw and is recommended for most applications. It also provides the brightest aimer in most applications. Imager software automatically maintains an approximate 25% aimer duty cycle, even when the imager exposure time is at its maximum in dark operating environments.

NOTE

When in Interlaced Mode, the illumination level will dynamically change with the degree of ambient light and reflection from the bar code being scanned.

Concurrent Mode

Concurrent Mode is provided for backwards compatibility with previous models, and is not recommended for most applications.

NOTE

In Concurrent Mode, the illumination LEDs are on continuously, while the aimer LEDs turn off during the imager exposure period, and on while the imager is not exposing. This Mode is used to eliminate any flicker of the illumination LEDs that may be objectionable to the user. In Concurrent Mode, the illumination LED current is reduced in com- parison to Interlaced Mode with regard to limiting engine peak current. Imager software automatically maintains an approximate 25% aimer
