Character Activation Timeout
You can set a timeout for the length of time the illumination remains on and
attempting to decode bar codes when using Character Activation Mode. Set the
length (in milliseconds) for a timeout by scanning the following bar code, then set-
ting the timeout (from 1-300,000 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the
Programming Chart, beginning on page 341, then Save. Default = 30,000 ms.
Character Deactivation
If you have sent a character from the host to trigger the scanner to begin scanning,
you can also send a deactivation character to stop scanning. Scan the following On
bar code to use character deactivation, then use Deactivation Character (follow-
ing) to select the character you will send from the host to terminate scanning.
Default = Off.
Deactivation Character
This sets the character used to terminate scanning when using Character Deacti-
vation Mode. On the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page 330, find the
hex value that represents the character you want to use to terminate scanning.
Scan the following bar code, then use the Programming Chart, beginning on page
341 to read the alphanumeric combination that represents that ASCII character.
Scan Save to finish. Default = 14 [DC4].
