Data Capture

Operational Modes

The device with an integrated imager supports two modes of operation, listed below. Activate each mode

by pressing the Scan button.

• Decode Mode: In this mode, the device attempts to locate and decode enabled barcodes within its field

of view. The imager remains in this mode as long as the user holds the scan button, or until it decodes

a barcode.

NOTE: To enable Pick List Mode, configure in DataWedge or set in an application using a API command.

• Pick List Mode: This mode allows the user to selectively decode a barcode when more than one

barcode is in the device’s field of view. To accomplish this, move the aiming crosshair or dot over the

required barcode to decode only this barcode. This feature is ideal for pick lists containing multiple

barcodes and manufacturing or transport labels containing more than one barcode type (either 1D or

2D).

NOTE: To enable Basic MultiBarcode Mode, configure in DataWedge or set in an application using a API

command.

• Basic MultiBarcode Mode: In this mode, the device attempts to locate and decode a specific number

of unique barcodes within its field of view. The device remains in this mode as long as the user holds

the scan button, or until it decodes all the barcodes.

• The device attempts to scan the programmed number of unique barcodes (from 2 through 100).

• If there are duplicate barcodes (same symbology type and data), only one of the duplicate barcodes

is decoded and the remainder are ignored. If the label has two duplicate barcodes plus another two

different barcodes, a maximum of three barcodes will be decoded from that label; one will be

ignored as a duplicate.

• Barcodes can be of multiple symbology types and still be acquired together. For example, if the

specified quantity for a Basic MultiBarcode scan is four, two barcodes can be symbology type Code

128 and the other two can be symbology type Code 39.

• If the specified number of unique barcodes is not initially in view of the device, the device will not

decode any data until the device is moved to capture the additional barcode(s) or time out occurs. If

the device field of view contains a number of barcodes greater than the specified quantity, the

device randomly decodes barcode(s) until the specified number of unique barcodes is reached. For

example, if the count is set to two and eight barcodes are in the field of view, the device decodes the

first two unique barcodes it sees, returning the data in random order.

• Basic MultiBarcode Mode does not support concatenated barcodes.
