Continuous Scan Mode - Honeywell MX7 Tecton Reference Manual

Continuous Scan Mode

Start > Settings > Control Panel > Data Collection > Main Tab
Enabling Continuous Scan Mode will ensure the laser is always on and decoding.
Note: Continuous scan mode is only available when the MX7 Tecton is equipped with a Honeywell or Symbol scan engine.
Do not scan decoder engine configuration bar codes when Continuous scan mode is on. Configuration bar codes do
not decode when scanned while Continuous Mode is On.
Caution: Laser beam is emitted continuously. Do not stare into the laser beam.
Set the Timeout between same symbol to a value sufficient to prevent the beeper from continuously beeping when a bar code
is left in the scanner's field of view.
When the scanner is in continuous mode the trigger and scan buttons function as a scanner On/Off switch.
The scanner red LED will always be off in continuous mode.
The audio beeps and green LED work the same as they do for normal trigger mode.
If trigger mode, power mode, or timeout between same symbol parameters are changed using external configuration bar codes,
the operating system automatically restores the parameters to their programmed settings upon a warm or cold boot and/or any
change made in the control panel.
Toggling between continuous and normal trigger modes is in effect immediately upon pressing the OK button in this control
panel, a warm boot is not required or necessary.
