Multiple Reads
Only one good read is reported if a label is placed within the scan zone
and left there. Scanner firmware prevents a second read of the same
label if it occurs within a preset time of a good read.
The preset time is tag-programmable from 250 to 1500 milliseconds in
50 millisecond increments. The factory default is 900 milliseconds. To
scan a label a second time, remove the item from the scan zone and
then scan it again after the preset time has elapsed.
