Decoded (HHP)

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.

5.27.2.3 Code 39

Enabled

Setting this parameter to on enables “Code 39”.

Strip Start/Stop Chars

Codabar uses the characters A, B, C, and D as start and stop characters. Thus, the first and last digits of a Codabar message must be A, B, C, or D, and the body of the message should not contain these characters. Setting this parameter to on strips the start and stop characters from this bar code.

Check Char

When this parameter is set to Validate only, the integrity of a “Code 39” symbol is checked to ensure that it complies with specified algorithms.

If “Check Char” is set to Validate and Transmit, the check character is validated and transmitted with the data.

Setting this parameter to None disables this function.

Minimum And Maximum Length

Minimum and Maximum lengths for the bar code can be set from 0 to 48. The length of a code refers to the number of characters (i.e., human readable characters), including check digit(s).
