POWER SAVE MODES AND THE MULTI-FUNCTION BUTTON The MS7320 has five configurable power save modes. Refer to the MetroSelect
Configuration Guide for additional information on Power Save Modes.
1. Blink Power Save Mode (Default):
“Blinks” the laser OFF & ON after a configured period of non-use.
When the scanner recognizes a bar code it will exit the Blink mode.
2. Laser Off Power Save Mode:
Turns the laser OFF after a configured period of non-use.
The motor continues to spin allowing for a faster “wake” up time. Pressing
the Multi-Function button will “wake” the scanner from the Laser Off power
save mode (see figure 17).
3. Laser & Motor Off Power Save Mode:
Turns the laser and motor OFF after a configured period of non-use.
Pressing the Multi-Function button will “wake” the scanner from the power
save mode (see figure 17). This mode is the only power save mode that can
be activated by the Multi-Function Button (see figure 16). This mode’s
“wake up” time is slightly longer due to the motor’s need to restart.
4. Dual Action Power Save Mode #1:
“Blinks” the laser OFF & ON after a configured period of non-use turns the
laser and motor OFF at thirty-minute intervals.
Example:
If the power save timeout
is set to 15 minutes.
Pressing the Multi-Function button will “wake” the scanner from the power
save mode (see figure 17).
5. Dual Action Power Save Mode #2:
Turns the laser OFF after a configured period of non-use then turns the
motor OFF after thirty-minute intervals.
Example:
If the power save timeout
is set to 15 minutes.
Pressing the Multi-Function button will “wake” the scanner from the power
save mode (see figure 17).
