Idle Mode Countdown
Timer (ms)
Bluetooth readers:
Active Mode
Countdown Timer (ms)
64
(#100)
Valid Range: 0 to 7FFFFFFF Milliseconds.
This state: Idle (Mid power usage)
Next state: Standby
Counts down to the end of Idle Mode. To disable this timer, set the
register value to -1 as in the following example which disables and
saves the timer setting with the ‘C’ command:
C(32)#-1
Idle Mode is the time after the Active Mode Countdown Timer has
expired and before the Idle Mode Countdown Timer has expired.
There are many user and firmware events that will reset the timer
or send the reader back into a higher-power mode; therefore it
may seem that the timer is longer than the value set.
Bluetooth readers: This is the time from active mode to idle mode
when the unit is not in the charger. If in the charger, this gets
added to register 2C to get the time from active to idle.
Bluetooth readers this state: Active (High power usage)
Bluetooth readers next state: Idle
Also see registers: 32, 88, 8E, 9F, 2C, 9E
33
Target Time Before
Decode (ms)
0
Valid Range: 0 to 7FFFFFFF Milliseconds
This is the time between a trigger event and when the reader will
capture an image. It is useful for positioning the reader over a
specific barcode among multiple barcodes.
34
Maximum Candidate
Decodes Per Read
1
The Reader will process up to this number of codes per “read code”
event. If there are more than this many codes in the field of view
and within target tolerance, only the first ones will be decoded. For
fastest performance with single codes, set to 1.
Also see registers: 4A, D8, DB
35
Button Stay-Down Time
(ms)
0
Valid Range: 0 to 7FFFFFFF Milliseconds
Keep processing the “read code” events for this amount of time
(act as if the button stays down for this time)
With version 268+, this register is not used with motion detect.
Also see register: 21A
37
Host Acknowledgement
Time Limit (ms)
2BC
(#700)
Valid Range: 0 to 7FFFFFFF Milliseconds
After sending data to Host, the Reader waits up to this amount of
time for the acknowledgement from Host before declaring failure.
