Manual Trigger Modes; Serial Trigger Mode; Read Time-Out; Poor Quality Codes - Honeywell 1602-B User Manual

Manual Trigger Modes

When in manual trigger mode, the scanner scans until a bar code is read or until the scan button is released. Two modes are
available, Normal and Enhanced. Normal mode offers good scan speed and the longest working ranges (depth of field).
Enhanced mode will give you the highest possible scan speed but slightly less range than Normal mode. Enhanced mode is
best used when you require a very fast scan speed and don't require a long working range. Default = Manual Trigger-Normal.
* Manual Trigger - Normal

Serial Trigger Mode

You can activate the scanner either by pressing the scan button, or using a serial trigger command (see
page 9-3). You must be in a serial interface mode in order to use serial triggering. Refer to
USB Serial (page 2-15) for further information. When in serial mode, the scanner scans until a bar code has been read or until
the deactivate command is sent. The scanner can also be set to turn itself off after a specified time has elapsed (see
Time-Out, which follows).

Read Time-Out

Use this selection to set a time-out (in milliseconds) of the scan button when using serial commands to trigger the scanner.
Once the scanner has timed out, you can activate the scanner either by pressing the scan button or using a serial trigger
command. After scanning the Read Time-Out bar code, set the time-out duration (from 0-300,000 milliseconds) by scan-
ning digits on the

Poor Quality Codes

Poor Quality 1D Codes

This setting improves the scanner's ability to read damaged or badly printed linear bar codes. When Poor Quality 1D
Reading On is scanned, poor quality linear bar code reading is improved, but the scanner's snappiness is decreased, mak-
ing it less aggressive when reading good quality bar codes. This setting does not affect 2D bar code reading. Default =
Poor Quality 1D Reading Off.
