Chapter 4: Scanner Modes
OMR Only Mode
When To Use
When To Avoid
50
Use this mode if you want to:
•
Convert and save only bubble data to ASCII
•
Use Scantron software applications such as
ScanTools, Remark, Prosper, or SurveyTracker Plus
•
Process sheets quickly (OMR Only mode is 22%
faster than OMR with Imaging mode)
Select a different mode if:
•
You want to collect image, bar code, or machine or
hand print data (use OMR with Imaging mode to
collect these types of data)
•
You cannot use Scantron data collection software
or you are working on a computer platform that is
not PC (Download mode works with computer
platforms other than PC and does not require
Scantron data collection software)
•
You simply want to score tests and do not need to
retain data (SelfScore mode is simple to use and
does not require a PC or software)
