Intelligent Signature Capture - IMGBOX

IMGBOX allows you to configure the size and location of a signature capture area relative to its proximity to a bar code. This

allows you to tailor a signature capture area to a specific form. In order to use IMGBOX, you need a set form where the signa-

ture box location is in a known location relative to a bar code. You can input the overall size of the signature area, as well as

specify how far the signature area is from the bar code, vertically and horizontally. You can also set the resolution and file format

for the final output of the signature capture image.

Note: IMGBOX commands can only be triggered by one of the following types of bar codes: PDF417, Code 39, Code 128, Aztec,

Codabar, and Interleaved 2 of 5. Once one of these symbologies has been read, the image is retained for a possible

IMGBOX command.

If you will be using your scanner to capture signatures frequently, you should optimize it for this purpose. However, the

speed of scanning bar codes may be slowed when this mode is enabled. Default = Off.

The following IMGBOX example was executed and viewed using QuickView software. This software is available at

www.honeywellaidc.com. Click on Software Downloads. Select 4600r from the Products list, then select QuickView Soft-

ware Utility.

Below is an example of a signature capture application. In this example, the aimer is centered over the signature capture area

and the trigger is pressed. A single beep is emitted, indicating that the scanner has read a Code 128 bar code and the data has

been transferred to the host. If using a Granit scanner, the scanner also vibrates. An IMGBOX command may now be sent

from the host to specify the coordinates of the signature capture area below that code, and indicating that only that area contain-

ing the signature should be transferred as an image to the host.
