Presentation Mode
This programs the imager to work in Presentation mode. The LEDs are either
off or at the lowest power for ambient conditions until a bar code is presented to
the imager. Then the LEDs turn on automatically to read the code. Presentation
Mode uses ambient light to detect the bar codes. If the light level in the room is
not high enough, Presentation Mode may not work properly.
Presentation LED Behavior after Decode
When an imager is in presentation mode, the LEDs remain on and continue
scanning for a short time after a bar code is decoded. If you wish to turn the
LEDs off immediately after a bar code is decoded, scan the LEDs Off bar code,
below. (If you want the LEDs to remain off for a length of time after the decode,
use Presentation LED Time-Out, below.)
Default = LEDs On.
Presentation LED Time-Out
When using Presentation LED Behavior after Decode (above), you may want to
set the time the LEDs remain off after a decode. To set the duration of this delay,
scan the bar code below, then set the time-out by scanning digits (0 - 9,999 ms)
from the Programming Chart on the inside the back cover of this manual, then
scanning Save.
Once the unit has completed this time-out, it will immediately
resume scanning.
