ABSTRACT:
A circuit is shown for use with a bar code scanner wherein the scanner includes a laser for producing a beam of light that is scanned across the bar code so that the light reflected from the bar code may be focused upon a sensor which produces an electrical signal representing the bar code. Scanning is stopped by a first circuit after a predetermined number of scans. Thereafter, a second circuit completes the decoding of the electrical signal and outputs the results if that decoding is successful. If not, a third circuit restarts the scanning within the first circuit.
