CodeGate®

When CodeGate is On, the trigger is used to allow decoded data to be transmitted to the host system. The scanner remains on, scanning and decoding bar codes, but the bar code data is not transmitted until the trigger is pressed. When CodeGate is Off,

bar code data is transmitted when it is decoded. Default = CodeGate On Out-of-Stand.

Character Activation Mode

You may use a character sent from the host to trigger the scanner to begin scanning. When the activation character is received, the scanner continues scanning until either the Character Activation Timeout (page 3-13),the deactivation character is received (see Deactivation Character on page 3-14),or a bar code is transmitted. Scan the following On bar code to use character acti- vation, then use Activation Character (following) to select the character you will send from the host to start scanning. Default =

Off.
