Power Mode
This parameter determines whether or not power remains on after a decode attempt. When in reduc ed power mode, the scanner
enters into a low power consumption mode to preserve battery life after each decod e attempt. When in continuous power mode,
power remains on after each decode attempt.
Scan Pattern
This parameter determines the pattern (mode) of scanning. Scan the appropriate bar code below to set the scanning mode.
•Single-line Only - Scan Single-line Only for a single-line scan mode. The laser has no up and down scan line movement
(no raster). (For an example of a single-line scan, see Figure 2-3 on page 2-6.)
•Multi-line Smart Raster - Scan Multi-line Smart Raster for a scan line begins as a single line and moves up and down
(rasters) when a partial scan of a bar code is detected, or no bar code is decoded 500 ms after the trigger is pulled. Upon
seeing a stacked RSS code, the scanner immediately rasters. (For an example of a multi-line scan, see Figure 2-4 on page 2-
6.)
•Multi-line Always Raster (default) - Scan Multi-line Always Raster for rastering (up and down scan line movement) to
begin immediately.
