The different reading modes

RoadRunners Evolution has four (4) reading modes. These modes can be changed through both the

BaracodaManager software and the Programming Guide.

Trigger mode (default setting)

Simply press the trigger when you want to scan a barcode.

Aiming mode (only available for RoadRunners Evolution 1D & Laser, not for 2D Imager)

The Aiming mode has been developed for users who need to scan barcodes very close one to another and need

to avoid reading a wrong code. Once in this mode, in order to read a barcode user will have to press the trigger

twice. Pressing it the first time will switch on the beam but will not switch on the decoder (thus allowing user to

aim at the correct barcode) while pressing the trigger the second time will activate the decoder thus allowing

the scanner to actually decode the barcode.

Autoscan mode

This mode enables to scan continuously. In Autoscan mode, the scan beam is continuously on.

Smart Autoscan mode

For a battery power consumption optimization issue, the scanner will be continuously flashing.

Option: RoadRunners Evolution allows the “No duplicate scans” feature activation. It avoids user to scan

consecutively twice in the same barcode. By default, this option is disabled, but can be changed through both

BaracodaManager software or Programming Guide.
