USER PREFERENCES & MISCELLANEOUS SCANNER OPTIONS 7 - 19
Timeout Between Decodes, Same Symbol
Parameter # 137
This parameter sets the minimum time between decodes of the same symbol. Use this to prevent the beeper
from continuously beeping when a symbol is left in the scanner’s field of view. The bar code must be out of the
field of view for the timeout period before the scanner reads the same consecutive symbol. It is programmable
in 0.1 second increments from 0.0 to 9.9 seconds. The default interval is 0.6 seconds.
To select the timeout between decodes for the same symbol, scan the bar code below, then scan two numeric
bar codes from Appendix E, NUMERIC BAR CODES that correspond to the desired interval, in 0.1 second
increments. Include a leading zero for single digit numbers. For example, to set a timeout of 0.5 seconds, scan
the bar code below, then scan the “0” and “5” bar codes. If an error occurs, or to change the selection, scan
Cancel on page E-3.
Timeout Between Decodes, Different Symbols
Parameter # 144
This parameter sets the minimum time between decodes of different symbols, in order to control the time the
scanner is inactive between decoding different symbols. It is programmable in 0.1 second increments from 0.0
to 9.9 seconds. The default is 0.2 seconds.
To select the timeout between decodes for different symbols, scan the bar code below, then scan two numeric
bar codes from Appendix E, NUMERIC BAR CODES that correspond to the desired interval, in 0.1 second
increments. Include a leading zero for single digit numbers. For example, to set a timeout of 0.5 seconds, scan
the bar code below, then scan the “0” and “5” bar codes. If an error occurs, or to change the selection, scan
Cancel on page E-3.
