Imager Scanning - Motorola MC9500-K User Manual

NOTE To enable Pick List Mode, download the Control Panel applet from the Support Central web site at
http://www.motorola.com/enterprisemobility/support. Pick List can also be set in an application using a API
command.
•
Pick List Mode: This mode allows you to selectively decode a bar code when more than one bar code is in
the MC9500-K's field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair center dot over the required bar
code to decode only that 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).
•
Image Capture Mode: Use this mode to capture an image within the MC9500-K's field of view. This is useful
for capturing signatures or images of items like damaged boxes.

Imager Scanning

Ensure that a scan-enabled application is loaded on the MC9500-K.
1.
Aim the exit window at the bar code.
2.
Press the scan button.
3.
The red laser aiming pattern turns on to assist in aiming. Ensure the cross-hair is on top of the bar code.
The Decode LED lights red to indicate that scanning is in process, then lights green and a beep sounds, by
default, to indicate the bar code was decoded successfully. Note that when the MC9500-K is in Pick List Mode,
the imager does not decode the bar code until the crosshair center dot touches the bar code.

NOTE Imager decoding usually occurs instantaneously. The MC9500-K repeats the steps required to take a digital
picture (image) of a poor or difficult bar code as long as the scan button remains pressed.
