5. Modes de funcionament
The scanner supports three primary data upload modes:
5.1. Instant Upload Mode (Normal Mode)
In this mode, scanned barcode data is immediately transmitted to your connected device. This is the default and most common mode for real-time data entry.
5.2. Automatic Storage Mode (Default)
If the scanner is within range of your device, data will be uploaded directly after scanning. If the scanner moves out of range, the data will be temporarily saved in the scanner's memory chip and uploaded automatically once the connection is re-established.
5.3. Mode d'inventari
In Inventory Mode, all scanned data is stored in the scanner's internal memory. To upload the stored data to your device, you must scan a specific "set code" (usually found in the full user manual or quick start guide). This mode is ideal for batch scanning and later data transfer.
To switch between these modes, refer to the specific set codes provided in your scanner's quick start guide or full user manual. Scanning the corresponding set code will activate the desired mode.
