Chapter 5.5 Configuring the Barcode Reader
Introduction
The SG-15
Colour
is equipped with a barcode reader of type Omni-Laser, CCD Single
Line or 2D Imager. At startup, the SG-15
Colour
detects what type of barcode reader
is installed and it will auto-configure the device according the settings on the
Barcode Reader page.
Double Read Time
This time value (in milli seconds) represents the minimum time between reading
one and the same barcode twice. The minimum time for reading two different
barcodes after each other is less than 200 msec for an Omni scanner.
Scan Illumination Level
For reading barcodes in a dim lighted environment, extra illumination is needed for
the 2D scan-engine. The illumination is adjustable and the number of levels
depends on the 2D scan-engine (max. 5 levels, including illumination=Off).
Use the Test button to check the adjusted level and then Apply.
Notes
1. 2D symbologies settings are ignored by the omni-directional reader.
2. Since the bar code reader page is not meant to replace the reader
Configuration Manual, only the most important symbology settings can
be changed.
3. The 2D reader reads barcodes from a cell phone or any screen with
sufficient pixel resolution.
4. The SG-15
Colour
fully manages the scan engine settings.
It is advised against to configure the scanner manually.
