Serial Trigger Commands
You can activate and deactivate the scanner with serial trigger commands. The trigger is activated and deactivated by sending
the following commands:
Activate: SYN T CR
Deactivate: SYN U CR
The scanner scans until a bar code has been read, until the deactivate command is sent, or until the Read Time-out has been
reached.
Read Time-Out
Use this selection to set a time-out (in milliseconds) of the scanner’s trigger when using serial commands to trigger the
scanner. Once the scanner has timed out, you can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger or using a serial trig-
ger command. After scanning the Read Time-Out bar code, set the time-out duration (from 0-300,000 milliseconds) by
scanning digits on the Programming Chart inside the back cover, then scanning Save. Default = 30,000 ms.
Resetting the Custom Defaults
If you want the custom default settings restored to your scanner, scan the Activate Custom Defaults bar code below. This
resets the scanner to the custom default settings. If there are no custom defaults, it will reset the scanner to the factory default
settings. Any settings that have not been specified through the custom defaults will be defaulted to the factory default settings.
The charts on the following pages list the factory default settings for each of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the
programming pages).
