Configurable Primary and Secondary Scan Pattern Modes

There are two configurable scan pattern modes available with the IS3480.

• The

primary scan pattern mode is the default scan pattern active when the

scanner starts.

• The

secondary scan pattern mode is activated by pressing the button

located on the side of the scanner. This mode is also referred to as the
button mode. For additional information on QuantumE’s button modes and
an example of each, please refer to Configurable Button Functions below.

The scanner returns to the primary scan pattern mode after a double
click of the button or if the unit has not scanned a bar code for the
duration of a pre-configured time limit.

Each pattern mode can be configured to use one of three scan patterns listed
below. Please refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide for information on
changing the default scan pattern settings.
