When the reader returns in range, transmission of the codes to the base station resumes automatically, according to the selected communication protocol, upon simply pressing and releasing the trigger or by successfully reading a new code.

Each code is listed on the reader display together with its identifying position number and its total number of characters. The three keys under the display have the following function in batch mode:

In batch mode, the selected Transmission Mode determines the behavior of the reader at the time the list of codes is transmitted. If One-way mode is enabled, the codes are transmitted one after the other without interruption. In Two-way mode, after transmitting each code, the reader waits for the Host answer message to be shown on the display. Therefore, in Two-way transmission mode and normal batch mode, the Start Normal Batch Transmission barcode must be read after each code to continue, whereas with automatic batch mode just pull and release the trigger after each code.

The code, which has a transmission pending, is shown on the display in reverse video indicating that it cannot be deleted.
