When there is no activity within a specified time period, the scanner enters low power mode. Scan the appropriate scanner
power time-out bar code to change the time-out duration (in seconds).
If the scanner is not activated during the timer interval, the scanner goes into power down mode. Whenever the scanner is acti-
vated, the timer is reset. If Scanning While in Base Cradle (page 3-6) is disabled, the scanner will still go into power down
mode. Default = 3600 seconds.
Note: When the scanner is in power down mode, press the scanner’s button to power the unit back up. There will be a set of
power up beeps and a delay of up to a few seconds for the radio to join. The scanner will then be ready to use.
RangeGate
If you need RangeGate functionality, the scanner can be programmed for Automatic Batch Mode (page 3-11), which offers
equivalent capabilities.
Batch Mode
Batch mode is used to store bar code data when a scanner is out of range of its base, or when performing inventory. The data
is transmitted to the base once the scanner is back in range or when the records are manually transmitted.
Automatic Batch Mode stores bar code data when the scanner is out of range of the base. The data is automatically transmit-
ted to the base once the scanner is back in range. When the scanner’s buffer space is full, any bar codes scanned generate an
error tone. In order to scan bar codes again, the scanner must be moved back into range of the base so data can be transmit-
ted.
Inventory Batch Mode stores bar code data, whether or not you are in range of the base. To transmit the stored data to the
base, either place the scanner in the base, or scan Transmit Inventory Records (page 3-15). When the scanner’s buffer space
is full, any bar codes scanned generate an error tone. In order to scan bar codes again, the data must be transmitted to the
base.
