The scanner's laser will turn off if the scanner has been idle.  When the scanner's 
IR detects movement in the activation area (see figure below), the laser will 
automatically turn on, preparing the scanner for bar code recognition, decoding, 
and transmission.  The default laser/scan mode for the MS9500 series is normal 
scan.
