Toggle between reading only Positive and both Positive and Negative
(with the black and white areas reversed) bar codes. Reading both
positive and negative bar codes can be useful in the graphics industry
when negative images must be proofed.
Default is “Positive”

Scanning Mode
Scanning mode refers to the method by which scans are initiated,
whether by pressing a trigger, or simply presenting a bar code to a
continuously reading scanner. Scanning can occur in seven different
ways:
46
Default is “Trigger”.
Trigger scan causes the scanner light to remain on as long as the
trigger is depressed, whether the bar code is recognized or not.
z
Flashing causes the scanner to flash continuously after the trigger
is briefly pressed until it detects a bar code and outputs the data.
The scanner light will then remain on in anticipation of another bar
code for approximately 12 seconds, after which it will begin flashing
again. A second trigger press stops the scanning.
z
Multiscan allows multiple scans while holding down the trigger.
z
One Press One Scan causes the scannerlight to remain on after
the trigger is briefly depressed until a bar code is recognized and
z
Test is similar to the Flash setting except that the scanner outputs
bar code data in a rapid-fire manner as long as a bar code is
presented to the scanner. Normally, the MS860 will not output the
same bar code twice in a row (in order to prevent double-scans),
but in test mode this feature is turned off.
z
Old Laser Flash causes the scanner to flash continuously after the
trigger is pressed and will scan each bar code only once per
presentation. A second trigger press stops the scanning. This
mode is to accommodate old style laser scanners which could be
damaged by continuous scanning.
z
Continuous causes the scanner light to remain on and scan bar
codes as they are presented. Bar Codes can only be “double
scanned” after a brief interval.
