Label Gone Timeout
Product Reference Guide 19
Label Gone Timeout
This feature sets the time after the last label segment is seen before the reader prepares for
a new label. The timeout can be set within a range of 10 milliseconds to 2,550 millisec-
onds (2.55 seconds) in 10ms increments. Label Gone Timeout does not apply to scan
modes that require a trigger pull for each label that is read
Follow these instructions to set this feature:
1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds.
2. Divide the desired setting by 10 (setting is in 10ms increments). Pad the result with lead-
ing zeroes to yield three digits. For example: 0 = 000, 5 = 005, 20 = 020, etc.
3. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming
Mode.
4. Scan the barcode: SELECT LABEL GONE TIMEOUT SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate three alpha-numeric characters from the keypad in Appendix E, Key-
pad representing the duration which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a
two-beep indication after the last character.
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming
Mode.
This completes the procedure. See Tabl e 2 for some examples of how to set this feature.

NOTE
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL barcode to
abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.
