3.0 ISC-I Demo Views

The main display screen in the ISC-Imager Demo Application provides two view modes: Text View and

Image View. (See example above)

• Text/Barcode Mode

appears when the application starts. Text View displays scanned bar code data

and all text information in the Application. During startup, connection confirmation, Firmware and

Boot Code revisions and the Device ID are displayed on this screen.

• Image Mode

displays any images captured by the ISC-Imager. To change the view, tap Imager |

Image Capture | Photo Image or tap the Image (

) icon on the menu bar.

• Preview Image Mode

is best used for longer distance image capture where a preview allows better

framing of the subject. After using this mode, the Imager automatically switches to Image Mode to

display the image. The Preview Image Mode icon (

) must be tapped to preview another image.

Clear Current View – Tap to clear whatever is currently displayed on the screen. If Image Mode is active, the

image on the screen is deleted unless it has been previously saved.

3.1 Capturing and Decoding Bar Code Data (Text View)

While in Text View, tap the bar code icon on the menu bar or press the assigned trigger and aim the

imager at a bar code. A green aiming line appears, and red LEDs flash to provide illumination of the

target. It may be useful to experiment by varying the distance from the bar code, as users sometimes

intuitively place the Imager too close to the target. To test this, scan the Code 128 bar code below.

The decoded information contained in the bar code displays

along with the Aim ID, Symbol ID, and the Symbol Mod.

To eliminate the technical information from this display, tap

Imager | Decode Options, and uncheck Display Symbol

Information.

Note: Symbol Mod represents the AIM modifier character.

Refer to the AIM International Technical Specification,

Symbology Identifiers, for AIM modifier character details.

For Text View, tap View | Text View.

To save the text information, tap Tools | Save Text As. The

file will be saved as a TXT file.

If you press the trigger and no bar code is in the imager’s

field of view, you will receive a “No Decode” message.
