Worth Data 701 RF manual Laser Scanner Options, Aiming Dot Duration, Scan Shut Down Time

Shut Down Time

Other

By default, if the RF Terminal is inactive (no keystrokes or scanning) for more than 5 minutes, it will shut itself down in order to conserve batteries.

This includes SIGNING OFF if appropriate. To resume operation, you must turn the RF Terminal back on using the ON/OFF key. To change the amount of time the RF Terminal waits before shutting down:

•Scan Shut Down Time

•Scan two digits - the default is 05 (5 minutes)- to correspond to the length of time in minutes. For example, 01 would be 1 minute.

If you want to prevent the RF Terminal from shutting off automatically at all, set the Shut Down Time to 00.

Laser Scanner Options

None	0
Double Decode	1
4.5 second laser beam	3
Transmit EAN-13 normally	C
Transmit EAN-13 in ISBN format	D
Transmit UPC-A normally	E
Transmit UPC-A in EAN-13 format (with 0 flag character)	F

•By default, the RF Terminal has no special laser options set. If any of

the features below seem to fit your situation, set them appropriately. Settings C through F are not laser-dependent and are for UPC/EAN bar code types only. See the UPC/EAN parameter for more information

•Double Decode is there to minimize the possibility of misreads when scanning very poor quality bar codes. This option forces the RF Terminal to keep reading until it gets two results that are identical. This "double scan checking" takes longer but will minimize misreads since it must get the same result twice before considering it a "good" read.

•4-second laser beam increases the amount of time the laser beam is activated, giving the laser more time to try and read a code. This option is useful for trying to read poor quality code. Using the 4-second laser beam with long range lasers give the operator more time to aim the laser properly at a distant bar code (usually using the "marker" beam). The default beam time is 2 seconds.

Aiming Dot Duration

Other

This parameter applies to the built-in internal laser as well as the LZ200 and LZ400 tethered laser scanners. Before the laser beam spreads, you can create a brighter aiming dot to be sure you are on the bar code you want to read. The default is set to 00, no aiming dot. You can key in 01 through 99 which creates an aiming dot in 1/10th second increments; i.e., 20 would be two seconds.
