Trigger Mode and Filter Duration

Trigger Mode

Definition:
The Trigger is the event that initiates a read cycle.
Note: When calibrating the imager or testing read rate, the current trigger setting will be disregarded.
Serial Cmd:
<K200,trigger mode,leading edge trigger filter,trailing edge trigger filter>
Default:
Continuous Read
Options:
0 = Continuous Read
1 = Continuous Read 1 Output
2 = External Level
3 = External Edge
4 = Serial Data
5 = Serial Data and Edge

Continuous Read

Usage:
Continuous Read is useful in testing symbol readability or reader functions. It is not recommended for normal operations.
Definition:
In Continuous Read, trigger input options are disabled, the imager is always in the read cycle, and it will attempt to decode and transmit every capture. If a single symbol stays within read range for multiple read cycles, its data will be transmitted repeatedly until it leaves the read range.
The imager sends replies to serial commands that require responses when symbol data is transmitted, or read cycle timeout is enabled and a timeout occurs and at least one captured image has been processed. Depending on the combination of enabled symbologies, the imager may take longer than the timeout to process a captured image.
Note: When to Output and No Read options have no affect on Continuous Read.
Serial Cmd:
<K200,0>
