Trigger Commands

You can activate and deactivate the scanner with serial trigger commands. First, the scanner must be put in Manual/Serial Trigger Mode either by scanning the Manual/Serial Trigger Mode bar code (page 3-4), or by sending the Manual/ Serial Menu Command (page 10-11). Once the scanner is in serial trigger mode, the trigger is activated and deactivated by sending the following com- mands:

Activate:SYN T CR

Deactivate:SYN U CR

The scanner scans until a bar code has been read, until the deactivate command is sent, or until the serial time-out has been reached (see Read Time-Out (Serial Trigger Mode) on page 3-4for a description, and the serial command on page 10-11).
