Industrial Protocols
The DataMan 8000 corded readers support the following industrial
protocols:

There are three ways to enable or disable Industrial Protocols. Using
either method, a reboot is required for the changes to come into effect.
• Enable the protocols using the Industrial Protocols pane of the
Setup Tool (under Communication Settings).
• Scan the appropriate Reader Conguration codes (see Reader
Conguration Codes available through the Windows Start menu).
• Send the appropriate DMCC (see Command Reference available
through the Windows Start menu).
For more information on using the industrial protocols, read the
DataMan Communications and Programming Guide available through
the Windows Start menu.

Trigger Types
The DataMan 8000 trigger mode determines when the reader attempts to read
a code. Use the Setup Tool, or the appropriate reader conguration codes, to
change trigger types.
The following trigger types are supported:
• Presentation: The laser aimer is always on. When motion is detected in front
of the reader, the reader will turn on and scan for a symbol. The reader
relies on an internal timing mechanism to acquire images.
• Manual (default): Begins acquiring images when you press the trigger
button on the reader, and continues acquiring images until a symbol is found
and decoded or you release the button.
