Read Cycle
Continuous Read 1 Output
Continuous Read 1 Output can be useful in applications where it is not feasible to use a
trigger and all succeeding symbols contain different information. It is also effective in
applications
where the objects are presented
by hand.
In Continuous Read 1 Output the imager self-triggers whenever it decodes a new symbol
or a timeout occurs.
If End of Read Cycle Mode is set to Timeout and the symbol doesn’t change, the output
is repeated at the end of each timeout period. For example, if Timeout is set to one second,
the imager sends the symbol data immediately
and repeats the output at intervals of one
second for as long as the symbol remains in the field of view.
If End of Read Cycle Mode is set to New Trigger, the imager will send the current symbol
data immediately, but only once. A new symbol appearing in the imager’s range will be
read and sent immediately, provided it is not identical to the previous symbol.
Caution: In automated environments, Continuous Read 1 Output is not recommended
because there is typically no reliable way to verify that a symbol was missed.
Note: If Trigger Mode is set to Continuous Read 1 Output, the imager will behave as if
Number of Symbols were set to 1, regardless of the user-defined configuration.
