How to set continuous read 1 output to infinite

If you don't use any type of trigger and you only want to get the data from a label 1 time, you can set the read cycle of the Microscan scanner to continuous read 1 output and set the time to an interval where the label should be gone. But what if the label is parked under the laser for a time longer than you specified?

Set the time to 0 seconds and this will be interpretated as infinite. This works on most Microscan scanners. This won't work if all your bar codes are the same because it will think it's the same bar code.
