Serial Trigger Time Out: Use this selection to set a time out (in quarter
seconds) of the scanner’s trigger when using serial commands to trigger the
scanner. Once the scanner has timed out, it must be triggered again either
serially or manually. After scanning the Serial Trigger Time Out bar code, set the
time out duration (from 0-1200 quarter seconds) by scanning digits from the
inside back cover, then scanning Save. Default = 0 (infinite, or no time out).
Manual Trigger, Low Power: The scanner “sleeps,” using only 30 milliamps,
until the trigger is pulled. When the trigger is pulled, the scanner wakes up and
operates at reduced power until there is no triggering for the time set with the Low
Power Time Out bar code. There is a short delay in operation when the scanner
is first triggered, but there is no delay when operating in low power mode.
Note: Manual Trigger, Low Power cannot be used with keyboard wedge
applications.
Low Power Time Out: Scan the Low Power Time Out bar code to change the
time out duration. Then scan the time out duration (from 0-300 seconds) from
the inside back cover, and Save. Default = 2 minutes.
Note: If you make an error while scanning the digits (before scanning Save),
scan Discard on the back cover, scan the Lower Power Time Out bar
code, scan the correct digits, then Save again.
Automatic Trigger: The scanner scans continuously at full power. Default for
3900.
