Run Mode

Run Mode

The Connectivity Gateway operates in Single Shot, Continuous, or Level mode.
  1. Navigate to the
    Configuration
    screen from the
    Home
    screen using the left navigation menu.
  2. Use the bottom right
    Run Mode
    section on the
    Configuration
    screen to change between
    Single Shot
    ,
    Continuous
    and
    Level
    modes.
  3. Click
    Config
    to edit
    Run Mode
    settings.
  4. Configure the required trigger settings:
    • Level Mode - determines how a level starts and stops. The default setting is
      Active
      . When set to
      Active
      , the level starts/stops on active high or low. Set this value to
      Pulse
      to start or stop a level when the trigger tag goes high or low twice. This can increase workflow efficiency by terminating data capture processes once a successful decode is achieved, preventing unnecessary resource usage.
    • Grace Period - the amount of time to wait after a level stop signal is received to accept incoming barcodes before rejecting them.
    • Stop Mode - determines how the level session stops. The default setting is
      Normal
      . When set to
      Normal
      , the application waits for the stop trigger signal from the host or GPIO and forwards the data to the followers. When set to
      On Decode
      , the application immediately sends the stop trigger to the followers upon the first decode.
    • Output Mode - determines how barcodes are output over all configurable host interfaces while running in level mode. The default setting is
      As Received
      . When set to
      As Received
      , barcodes are sent as received. When set to
      Level End
      , barcodes are combined into a single payload separated by the output delimiter.
    • Output Delimiter - determine the delimiting characters separating the barcode output after a level session when running in
      Level End
      output mode.
