Enabling Continuous Scan Mode will ensure the laser is always on and decoding.
Note: Do not scan decoder engine configuration bar codes in the Integrated Scanner Programming Guide when Continuous scan mode is on. Configuration bar codes do not decode when scanned while the MX7 is in Continuous Mode.
Caution: Laser beam is emitted continuously. Do not stare into the laser beam.
Set the Timeout between same symbol to a value sufficient to prevent the beeper from continuously beeping when a symbol is left in the scanner’s field of view.
When the scanner is in continuous mode the trigger and scan buttons function as a scanner On/Off switch.
The scanner red LED will always be off in continuous mode.
The audio beeps and green LED work the same as they do for normal trigger mode.
If trigger mode, power mode, or timeout between same symbol parameters are changed using external configuration bar codes in the Integrated Scanner Programming Guide, the operating system automatically restores the parameters to their programmed settings upon a warm or cold boot and/or any change made in the control panel.
Toggling between continuous and normal trigger modes is in effect immediately upon pressing the OK button in this control panel, a warm boot is not required or necessary.
