Abstract

See full text

In a non-reading mode, a bar code is detected by irradiating it with a laser beam from a laser source, power consumption of which is reduced, and it is determined whether or not the detected bar code is correct. The mode is changed from the non-reading mode to a reading mode in which the laser source operates at substantially full power if it is determined that the code symbol is correct. The non-reading mode continues if it is determined that the code symbol is not correct. This enables an auto-trigger function that triggers reading of the bar code automatically. Therefore, it is possible to eliminate conventional parts and/or special-purpose circuits for realizing the auto-trigger function so that the optical-information-reading apparatus can be downsized.
