5.1 Scan Gun Mode

In Scan Gun Mode, the scanner acts as a direct input device. Scanned data is immediately transmitted to the connected computer or device. If the scanner is offline or out of wireless range, data will be temporarily stored and transmitted automatically once a signal is re-established.

5.2 Collection Mode

Collection Mode is a plug-and-play option where scanned data is stored internally. This mode allows for batch processing. You can configure settings such as preventing duplicate scans. Data can be exported to a computer when needed.

5.3 Inventory Mode

Inventory Mode is designed for accumulating barcode data. When scanning barcodes, the device automatically counts and stores the quantity. This mode also allows you to browse and modify incorrect data directly on the scanner's screen before exporting.
