When enabled, once all active traits have been cycled, the app automatically advances to the next entry.

Allows volume keys to be used to move to next/previous entry. Note that this disables the volume buttons being able to change the device volume when Collect is open.

return Return key signal

Allows the user to choose the behavior of the return key signal that can be included when scanning barcodes: next plot, next trait, or do nothing.
