Decoded (Internal) Scanners

5.27.1.2 Decoded (Internal) Advanced Options

Continuous Scan Mode

Setting this parameter to ‘on’ keeps the laser on and continuously decoding as long as the scanner button is pressed and held down.

Minimum Cancel Time

The value assigned to this parameter determines the time delay before the scanner is turned off, once the scanner trigger or button is released. This gives the scanner a minimum amount of time to complete its current decode before the scan is cancelled when the user quickly triggers on/off.

Low Power Timeout

To extend laser life, you can select the length of time the scanner remains active following a successful decode. The scanner wakes from low power mode when a bar code is scanned – a successful decode restores normal blinking.

When you double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can choose a value of 30 sec, 1 min, 2 min or 3 min.

Note: This parameter is only used if the Trigger Mode has been set to Continu- ous On and the hand-held is mounted in a fixed position; otherwise, ‘Low Power Timeout’ is not used.

Parameter Scanning

Setting this parameter to on enables decoding of parameter bar codes.

Linear Security Level

This parameter allows you to select the security level appropriate for your bar code quality. There are four levels of decode security for linear code types (e.g., Code 39, Interleaved 2 of 5). Higher security levels should be selected for decreasing levels of bar code quality. As security levels increase, the scanner’s decode speed decreases.

Double-tapping on this parameter displays a dialog box in which you can enter a value from 1 to 4.
