Chapter 1 System Setting
Enable/Disable Barcode Programming
Scanning the Enter Setup/Exit Setup barcode can
enable barcode programming. After barcode
programming is enabled, you can scan a number of
programming barcodes to configure your scanner.
Barcode programming is on by default.
In real application, programming barcodes hardly
o ve rl a p w i t nh o n - progr a mm i n g b a r c od e s , s o i t
is unnecessary to disable programming each
time you finishthe configuration.

Factory Defaults
Scanning the following barcode can restore
the scanner to the factory defaults.
You may need to reset your scanner when:
1. scanner is not properly configured so that it
fails to decode barcodes;
2. you forget previous configuration and want
to avoid its impact;
3. functions that are rarely used have been
enabled for the time being.

Scan Mode
Manual Mode:A trigger pull activates a decode
session. The decode session continues until the
barcode is decoded or the trigger is released or the
decode session timeout expires.
*Manual Mode
W030000
Decode Session Timeout: This parameter sets the
maximum time decode session continues during a
scan attempt. It is programmable in 1s increments
from 1s to 255s. The default timeout is 15s. If the
parameter is set to 0, the decode session timeout is
infinite.
Decode Session Timeout
M00031D
Example: Set the decode session timeout to 5s
1. Scan the Enter Setup barcode.
2. Scan the Decode Session Timeout barcode.
3. S c a n t h e num e ri c b a r c od e “ 5 ”. ( S ee t h e D igi t
Barcodes section in Appendix)
4. Scan the Save barcode. (See the Save/Cancel
Barcodes section in Appendix)
5. Scan the Exit Setup barcode.

Continuous Mode
Continuous Mode: A trigger press activates the
scanner to scan and decode at user-specified
intervals, i.e. the timeout between decodes. Each
decode session lasts until barcode is decoded or
the decode session timeout expires. To
suspend/resume the operation, simply press
the trigger. By default, the scanner rereads
same barcode with no delay.
Continuous Mode
W030002
Decode Session Timeout: This parameter sets the
maximum time decode session continues during a
scan attempt. It is programmable in 1s increments
from 1s to 255s. The default timeout is 15s. If the
parameter is set to 0, the decode session timeout is
infinite.
Decode Session Timeout
M00031D
Example: Set the decode session timeout to 5s
1. Scan the Enter Setup barcode.
2. Scan the Decode Session Timeout barcode.
3. S c a n t h e num e ri c b a r c od e “ 5 ”. ( S ee t h e D igi t
Barcodes section in Appendix)
4. Scan the Save barcode. (See the Save/Cancel
Barcodes section in Appendix)
5. Scan the Exit Setup barcode.

Timeout between Decodes:This parameter sets
the timeout between decode sessions. When a
decode session ends, next session will not
happen until the timeout between decodes
expires. It is programmable in 0.1s increments
from 0.0s to 25.5s. The default timeout is 1.0s.
Timeout between Decodes
M00031C
Example: Set the timeout between decodes to 5s
1. Scan the Enter Setup barcode.
2. Scan the Timeout between Decodes barcode.
3. S c a n t h e num e ri c b a r c od e s “ 5 ” a n d “ 0 ”.
(SeetheDigitBarcodessectionin Appendix)
4. Scan the Save barcode. (See the Save/Cancel
Barcodes section in Appendix)
5. Scan the Exit Setup barcode.

Reread Delay sets the time period before the
scanner can read the same barcode a second time.
It protects against accidental rereads of the
same barcode. This parameter is programmable
in 0.1s increments from 0.1s to 25.5s. The default
delay is 3.0s. If the parameter is set to 0, the delay
is infinite.
Note: This parameter only applies when the Reread
Same Barcode with a Delay is enabled.

2. Scan the Reread Delay barcode.

4. Scan the Save barcode. (See the Save/Cancel
Barcodes section in Appendix)
5. Scan the Exit Setup barcode.

Sense Mode
Sense Mode: The scanner activates a decode
session every time when it detects a change in
ambient illumination and meets the requirement of
the image stabilization timeout. Decode session
continues until barcode is decoded or the decode
session timeout expires. A trigger pull can also
activate a decode session. By default, the scanner
rereads same barcode with no delay.
Sense Mode
W030003
Decode Session Timeout: This parameter sets the
maximum time decode session continues during a scan
attempt. It is programmable in 1s increments from 1s to
255s. The default timeout is 15s. If the parameter is set to
0, the decode session timeout is infinite.
