Stringing Together Multiple Formats (Creating "Or" Statements) - Honeywell 4800dr - Document Camera Barcode Manual

Example: You need to read three variable digits, three specific characters (ABC), followed by three
variable digits. The template would be:
Using Visual Xpress (see
string between quotes: "dddABCddd".
You may also create this character match sequence by scanning barcodes. Scan the Enter OCR
Template symbol
manual three times. Then scan 414243 from the inside back cover (the hex characters for "A," "B," and
"C"), and scan the d three more times. Scan Save OCR Template,
read any string of three digits, "ABC," then any string of three digits, for example:
(The above OCR sample is OCR-A. You must enable the OCR-A font

for a space is 20.)

Stringing Together Multiple Formats
(Creating "Or" Statements)
You may want to program the imager to accept many OCR formats. To do this, you would string together
each format with a "t." This tells the imager to read optical characters that match any one of the formats
in the template.
Example: You need to read any combination of eight digits, or a combination of four digits, two
uppercase letters, and two digits. The template would be:
To create this template, you would enable the OCR-A font. Scan the Enter OCR Template symbol
(page 7-10). Scan the d from the
scan the t to create the "or" statement. Then you would scan the characters for the second template.
Scan d four times, scan l two times, then scan d two more times. Scan Save OCR Template
10). This would let you read either type of format, for example:
or
You can string together as many templates as you need.
