Beyond the Basics
With Ignore mode, the backlight functions as described in
Keypress mode, except that the scanner ignores the fi rst
keypress. This mode is useful when you wish to quickly
illuminate the display and keypad without having to search
for the
key. The fi rst keypress is ignored, and the scanner
sounds the low pitched error beep to remind you that the
fi rst key pressed to activate the backlight is ignored by the
scanner.
In any backlight mode, you can press and hold
for about 1
second to force the backlight on full time. Press while the
backlight is on to turn it off.
