Along with keyboard keys, trigger sources can also be grip triggers, external hardware triggers or software-based.
Preliminary Draft Chapter 6: Configuration Add And Edit Trigger Mapping Add Tapping this button brings up the Add Mapping dialog (see “Add And Edit Trigger Mapping” on page 107), so that you can add new trigger mappings. Edit Tapping this button brings up the Edit Mapping dialog (see “Add And Edit Trigger Mapping” on page 107), so that you can edit existing trigger mappings. Remove Tapping this button removes an existing mapping.
Chapter 6: Configuration Add And Edit Trigger Mapping Preliminary Draft Note: It is possible to map the same source to different modules (trigger consumers) – for example, to both the Imager and Non-Decoded Scanner. If so, both devices/operations will occur simultaneously. This is not recommended in most cases, especially with devices such as Imagers or RFID Readers. It is also possible to map different sources to the same module (trigger consumer).
