2-1 Overview
The scanner is a CMOS imager-based (black/white) device for image capture and barcode decode. It
supports reading all major 1D and 2D barcodes.

The scanner has a TTL-level RS-232 interface to communicate with a host. RTS and CTS are only
used for hardware flow control and should be leaved unconnected or tied to VCC by 100K Ohm
resistors when they are not used.

2-4 Power management
The scanner has three power modes: Operate, Idle and Standby. The Idle and Standby modes have
relative lower power consumption.
The following figure illustrates the state machines of the power management.

①Operate time-out interval expires.
②Standby mode enter is enabled, Idle time-out interval expires.
③TRIG, CTS, or RXD is active.
④TRIG is active or a character is received.
In applications where Scan mode is Infrared-detecting, an scanner can be awakened from Idle and
Standby mode by objects approaching into the front area of about 15cm.
Refer to 6-6 Scan mode & some global settings , check the parameter ranges and default values of
Operate time-out interval, Idle time-out interval and Standby mode enter.
