Operation
Processing modes
Under Processing mode, you can specify whether an image should contain one or
several symbols and whether these symbols should be imported. If several
symbols are scheduled to be read, you will need to specify how the individual
results will be used to compile the output string.
Processing mode: Single window
In Single window mode, you can search for and decode 1 symbol in 1 active
window. The size and position of the window can be selected as required. Only
the window area is processed to enable quicker decoding.

Reference code/match code: The reference code/match code function
can be used only in Single window processing mode.
Comparison code: The comparison code is entered here. When the
mouse is moved over the comparison code input window, the popup menu
containing the nonprinting characters appears
29.
Read next code: Press the OK button if you would like to accept the
content of the next decoded symbol as reference content for the
comparison code.
Good read output: Specifies the character string that will be output if
decoding was successful. This field uses Tooltip functionality. A table
appears if the mouse pointer remains over one of the two input fields for
more than 1 second. The table contains placeholders that can be inserted
manually or by clicking the mouse. At present, the following information can
be output as part of the output string: Code content, code length, status,
decoding time, symbol coordinates, etc. A description of the placeholders
can be found in the appendix see chapter 9.3.
Bad read output: Specifies the character string that will be output if
decoding was unsuccessful. A match code or timeout error will also result
in the output of this string. A table appears if the mouse pointer remains
over one of the two input fields for more than 1 second. The table contains
placeholders that can be inserted manually or by clicking the mouse. At
present, the following information can be output as part of the output string:
Status, decoding time. A description of the placeholders can be found in
the appendix see chapter 9.3.
Repeat the process for all the windows you wish to modify.
