Dot Code
DotCode is a special code type that can be enabled using the standard Code Type dialog box or using
Advanced Settings.
Important: When DotCode is enabled, no other symbologies will be decodable. You must disable
DotCode to decode symbols of any other type.
DotCode parameters can be found in the Symbologies menu located in WebLink's Advanced Settings.
Rotation – DotCode will look for either horizontal or vertical codes with no rotation plus or minus 3
degrees. You can set Rotation Mode to Low Rotation plus or minus 10 degrees or to
Omnidirectional.
Rows and Columns – When using DotCode, you can specify the exact number of rows and columns in
the code to minimize the possibility of decoding errors and no reads. If you specify the exact row and
column dimensions, only DotCode symbols of the same dimension are decoded.
To do this, you must enter the row and column values using a K command via the Terminal under
Settings, or via another serial link.
Important: DotCode must be enabled for the column and row settings to take effect.
