  • Page 11: How The Falconv Works

    How the FalconV works The FalconV scanner is controlled by a single Windows 7 or Windows 10 driven PC. The operator interacts with the system via the CertainScan software and simply drops items onto the conveyor. The system scans the items based on the current job parameters.

  • Page 12: Jobs

    Figure 1: CertainScan Run Screen example Jobs A job is a collection of parameters the FalconV uses for scanning items. The jobs you set up allow you to process items in a similar manner from run to run. The scanner captures images of items and stores the information it collects in batches, which consist of one or more sets.
