You can enable or disable the sound and vibration feedback of the scanner. This is useful in environments where audible beeps might be disruptive or where tactile feedback is preferred.

Figure 6: The scanner allows users to independently turn on or off sound and vibration feedback based on operational requirements.

Figure 7: Specific barcodes can be scanned to toggle the sound feature on or off. For example, scanning the barcode 30300C1 might turn off the sound.
