Chapter 4: Scanner Modes
OMR Only Mode
50 Scantron OpScan 4ES and iNSIGHT 4ES Scanners
When To Use Use this mode if you want to:
• Convert and save only bubble data to ASCII
• Use Scantron software applications such as
ScanTools, Remark, Prosper, or SurveyTracker Plus
• Process sheets quickly (OMR Only mode is 22%
faster than OMR with Imaging mode)
When To Avoid Select a different mode if:
• You want to collect image, bar code, or machine or
hand print data (use OMR with Imaging mode to
collect these types of data)
• You cannot use Scantron data collection software
or you are working on a computer platform that is
not PC (Download mode works with computer
platforms other than PC and does not require
Scantron data collection software)
• You simply want to score tests and do not need to
retain data (SelfScore mode is simple to use and
does not require a PC or software)
