Honeywell 1450g User Manual

After a bar code is successfully detected and read from the scanner, the laser can be programmed either to remain on and 
scanning, or to turn off.  When End Character Activation After Good Read is enabled, the laser turns off and stops scan-
ning after a good read.  If you scan Do Not End Character Activation After Good Read, the laser remains on after a good 

read.  Default = End Character Activation After Good Read.

You can set a timeout for the length of time the laser remains on and attempting to decode bar codes when using Character 
Activation Mode.  Set the length (in milliseconds) for a timeout by scanning the following bar code, then setting the timeout 
(from 1-65535 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the 

, then scanning 

.  Default = 5000 ms.

If you have sent a character from the host to trigger the scanner to begin scanning, you can also send a deactivation character 
to stop scanning.  Scan the following On bar code to use character deactivation, then use Deactivation Character (following) to 

select the character you will send from the host to terminate scanning.  Default = Off.

This sets the character used to terminate scanning when using Character Deactivation Mode.  On the 

, page A-3, find the hex value that represents the character you want to use to terminate scanning.  

Scan the following bar code, then use the 

 to read the alphanumeric combination that represents that 

ASCII character.  Scan 

 to finish.
