Step 8 Calibrate - Microscan QX Hawk User Manual

Step 8 — Calibrate
Imager settings can be adjusted automatically for optimum performance by either the EZ
Button or by ESP.
During the calibration routine, the imager will flash its amber Read Rate percent LEDs and
illumination LEDs while searching camera settings and determining the best configuration
for decoding symbol data. Upon successful completion of this routine, a green LED pattern
will flash brightly and illuminate the symbol. If unsuccessful, the imager will emit 5 short
beeps and stop searching.
Calibrate by ESP
1. Click the Calibrate button.
2. The imager will search camera settings to determine the best configuration for decoding
symbol data.
A successful calibration will display a green frame around the symbol, and the following
message will appear: "Uploading all reader parameters." After a moment the symbol
data will be presented in the field below the image display window.
Calibrate by EZ Button
1. Hold down the EZ Button for about two seconds and release when you hear two
short beeps. The 20% and 40% LEDs will illuminate.
2. The imager will search camera settings to determine the best configuration for decoding
symbol data.
Note: To end all EZ Button functions, press the EZ Button once and quickly release.
Calibrate by Serial Command
