Digital Bar Code

When you click the

Digital Bar Code

tab and the Start
button, a digitized
representation of
the symbol in front
of the scanner will
appear.
This routine is
useful for convey-
ing a sense of the
symbol's readabil-
ity and graphically
indicating bad or
unreadable por-
tions of symbols,
extraneous
"noise," etc. A
green waveform indicates a decoded symbol; a red waveform indicates an undecoded
symbol or other object.
The read triangles represent the width of the scan beam relative to the symbol. The
upward pointing arrows indicated the symbol's margin.
Zoom In, Zoom Out
You can zoom in by sliding the Zoom lever to the right. You may have to scroll right or
left to locate your symbol, but the results will be striking.
