Chapter 5 Data Capture The TC55 offers the following data capture options: • • • • integrated linear imager integrated digital camera optional CS3070 Bluetooth scanner optional RS507 Hands-free Bluetooth imager. Note: DataWedge is installed and enabled on the TC55 by default. Linear Imager The device with an integrated linear imager has the following features: • • Reading a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular 1-D code types. Intuitive aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.
| Data Capture Figure 80: CS3070 Bluetooth Scanner 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 Bluetooth Button/LED Delete Button Scan Button LED Exit Window See the CS3000 Series Scanner Product Reference Guide for detailed information for configuring the CS3070. RS507 Hands-Free Imager The RS507 Hands-free Imager is a wearable bar code scan solution for both 1D and 2D bar code symbologies. The scanner supports Bluetooth Human Interface Device (HID) connection to the device where the scanner emulates a keyboard.
Data Capture | 101 - • • Scan angle is important for promoting quick decodes. When laser beams reflect directly back into the scanner from the bar code, this specular reflection can “blind” the scanner. To avoid this, scan the bar code so that the beam does not bounce directly back. But do not scan at too sharp an angle; the scanner needs to collect scattered reflections from the scan to make a successful decode. Practice quickly shows what tolerances to work within.
| Data Capture Bar Code Capture with Integrated Camera To capture bar code data: Note: When capturing bar code data in poor lighting, turn on Illumination mode in the DataWedge application. See the TC55 Integrator Guide for detailed information on configuring DataWedge. Procedure: 1 Ensure that an application is open on the device and a text field is in focus (text cursor in text field). 2 Aim the camera at a bar code. 3 Press and hold the Programmable button.
Data Capture | 103 Procedure: 1 Ensure that an application is open on the device and a text field is in focus (text cursor in a text field). 2 Aim the scanner at the bar code. 3 Press the scan (+) button. Figure 85: CS3070 Scanning 4 Ensure the scan line crosses every bar and space of the symbol. Figure 86: Linear Scanner Aiming Pattern 5 The scanner beeps and the LED turns green to indicate a successful decode. 6 The captured data appears in the text field.
| Data Capture Figure 87: Bar Code Scanning with RS507 3 Press and hold the trigger. The red laser aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming. Ensure the bar code is within the area formed by the cross-hairs in the aiming pattern. The aiming dot is used for increased visibility in bright lighting conditions. The RS507 LEDs light green, a beep sounds to indicate the bar code was decoded successfully.
Data Capture | 105 DataWedge DataWedge is a utility that adds advanced bar code scanning capability to any application without writing code. It runs in the background and handles the interface to built-in bar code scanners. The captured bar code data is converted to keystrokes and sent to the target application as if it was typed on the keypad. To configure DataWedge refer to the TC55 Integrator Guide.
