Intelligent Signature Capture - IMGBOX
IMGBOX allows you to configure the size and location of a signature capture area
relative to its proximity to a bar code. This allows you to tailor a signature capture
area to a specific form. In order to use IMGBOX, you need a set form where the sig-
nature box location is in a known location relative to a bar code. You can input the
overall size of the signature area, as well as specify how far the signature area is
from the bar code, vertically and horizontally. You can also set the resolution and
file format for the final output of the signature capture image.
Note: IMGBOX commands can only be triggered by one of the following types of bar codes:
PDF417, Code 39, Code 128, Aztec, Codabar, and Interleaved 2 of 5. Once one of
these symbologies has been read, the image is retained for a possible IMGBOX
command.
Signature Capture Optimize
If you will be using your scanner to capture signatures frequently, you should opti-
mize it for this purpose. However, the speed of scanning bar codes may be slowed
when this mode is enabled. Default = Off.
Below is an example of a signature capture application. In this example, the aimer
is centered over the signature capture area and the trigger is pressed. A single beep
is emitted, indicating that the scanner has read a Code 128 bar code and the data
has been transferred to the host. If using a Granit scanner, the scanner also
vibrates. An IMGBOX command may now be sent from the host to specify the coor-
dinates of the signature capture area below that code, and indicating that only that
area containing the signature should be transferred as an image to the host.
