Ikôn Rugged PDA (Windows CE 5.0) User Manual 165
Chapter 5: Configuration
Decoded (Internal) Scanners
Decoded (Internal) Advanced Options
Dot Time (msec)
The value selected for “Dot Time (msec)” determines (in milliseconds) how long the target-
ing dot remains on before the scanner switches to a normal scan sweep. When you double-
tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can enter a value of 0 msec,
200 msec or 400 msec. A value of 0 (zero) disables the target dot.
Aim Duration
This parameter determines the total time the aiming pattern appears before the scanner laser
begins sweeping. When you double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which
you can enter a value from 0 to 30 (0 to 3 sec.). A value of 0 (zero) disables the aiming-dot.
Laser On Time
The value assigned to this parameter determines how long the laser will remain on when the
scan button or trigger is pressed. Double-tapping on this parameter displays a dialog box in
which you can enter a value between 5 and 99, each number representing 0.1 seconds.
5.14.2.2 Decoded (Internal) Advanced Options
Continuous Scan Mode
Setting this parameter to on keeps the laser on and continuously decoding as long as the
scanner button is pressed and held down.
Minimum Cancel Time
The value assigned to this parameter determines the time delay before the scanner is turned
off, once the scanner trigger or button is released. This gives the scanner a minimum amount
of time to complete its current decode before the scan is cancelled when the user quickly
triggers on/off.
Low Power Timeout
To extend laser life, you can select the time the scanner remains active following a success-
ful decode. The scanner wakes from low power mode when a bar code is scanned—a
successful decode restores normal blinking.
This is only used if the unit’s Trigger Mode has been changed to Continuous On. If the Ikôn
is used in a fixed mount this parameter might be used, but not if the unit is used as a PDA.
When you double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can choose a
value of 30 sec., 1 min., 2 min., or 3 min.
