4-10 WLS 8400 Product Reference Guide
Aim Duration
When the scanner is in Level trigger mode (default mode), Aim Duration sets the amount of time the aiming dot is seen before turning into a scanning beam. This parameter has no affect when the scanner is in either of the Two Stage trigger modes. See Trigger Mode on page
The aim duration is programmable in 0.1 second increments, from 0.0 to 9.9 seconds. The default Aim Duration is 0.0 seconds. When set to 0.0 seconds, no aiming pattern appears before a decode session.
To set an aim duration, scan the bar code below. Then scan two numeric bar codes, available in Appendix D, Numeric Bar Codes, that correspond to the desired aim duration. Durations less than 1.0 seconds must have a leading zero. For example, to set an aim duration of 0.5 seconds, scan the bar code below, followed by the ‘0’ and the ‘5’ bar codes. In case of an error, or to change the selection, scan the ‘Cancel’ bar code on page
