Data Capture
The TC70 offers data capture using the integrated imager, camera or the RS507 Hands-free imager.
Note:
By default, the good decode beep is set to system volume (Music and Media). The good decode beep can
be set to another sound (Notifications or Alarms) and the volume can be independently controlled. See the
DataWedge section in the TC70 Integrator Guide for more information.
DataWedge is installed and enabled on the TC70 by default.

Imaging

The TC70 with an integrated imager has the following features:
• Omnidirectional reading of a variety of bar code symbologies, including the most popular linear, postal, PDF417,
and 2D matrix code types.
• The ability to capture and download images to a host for a variety of imaging applications.
• Advanced intuitive laser aiming cross-hair and dot aiming for easy point-and-shoot operation.
The imager uses imaging technology to take a picture of a bar code, stores the resulting image in its memory, and
executes state-of-the-art software decoding algorithms to extract the bar code data from the image.
Operational Modes
The TC70 with an integrated imager supports two modes of operation, listed below. Activate each mode by pressing
the Scan button.
• Decode Mode: In this mode, the TC70 attempts to locate and decode enabled bar codes within its field of view.
The imager remains in this mode as long as the user holds the scan button, or until it decodes a bar code.
Note: To enable Pick List Mode, configure in DataWedge or set in an application using a API
command.
• Pick List Mode: This mode allows the user to selectively decode a bar code when more than one bar code is in
the TC70 's field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair or dot over the required bar code to
decode only this bar code. This feature is ideal for pick lists containing multiple bar codes and manufacturing or
transport labels containing more than one bar code type (either 1D or 2D).

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.
