Trigger Commands

You can activate and deactivate the image scanner with serial trigger com-
mands. First, the image scanner must be put in Manual/Serial Trigger Mode
either by scanning the Manual/Serial Trigger Mode barcode (

page 3-4

), or by

sending the Manual/Serial Menu Command (

page 10-11

). Once the image

scanner is in serial trigger mode, the trigger is activated and deactivated by
sending the following commands:

Activate:SYN T CR

Deactivate:SYN U CR

The image scanner scans until a barcode has been read, until the deactivate
command is sent, or until the serial time-out has been reached (see

Read Time-

Out (Serial Trigger Mode)

on page 3-4 for a description, and the serial com-

mand on

page 10-11

).
