Theory of Operation

During image capture:
The imager sensor array in the SE4400 captures the image of the bar code through the optical system.
1.
The PL4407 controls the SE4400 imager to obtain the best possible image quality.
2.
The PL4407 transfers the decoded data or image data to the host system.
3.
The result is a monochrome digital image similar to that of a digital camera. The output from the SE4400 is byte wide
pixel data that is sent to the PL4407.
