The MS7820 bar code scanner has five configurable power save modes. Refer
to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide for additional information on Power Save
Modes.

1. Blink Power Save Mode:

“Blinks” the laser OFF & ON after a configured period of non-use.
When the scanner recognizes a bar code, it will exit the Blink mode.

2. Laser Off Power Save Mode (Default):

Turns the laser OFF after a configured period of non-use.
The motor continues to spin allowing for a faster “wake” up time. Pressing
any of the three buttons will “wake” the scanner from the Laser Off power
save mode (see figure 17).

3. Laser & Motor Off Power Save Mode:

Turns the laser and motor OFF after a configured period of non-use.
Pressing any of the three buttons will “wake” the scanner from the power
save mode (see figure 37). This mode’s “wake up” time is slightly longer due
to the motor’s need to restart.

4. Dual Action Power Save Mode #1:

“Blinks” the laser OFF & ON after a configured period of non-use turns the
laser and motor OFF at thirty-minute intervals.


Example:
If the power save timeout
is set to 15 minutes.


Pressing the Power Save button will “wake” the scanner from the power save
mode (see figure 37).

5. Dual Action Power Save Mode #2:

Turns the laser OFF after a configured period of non-use then turns the
motor OFF after thirty-minute intervals.


Example:
If the power save timeout
is set to 15 minutes.


Pressing the Power Save button will “wake” the scanner from the power save
mode (see figure 37).
