IDC Demonstrations
Anchored Mode Demo
• Set IDC Operating Mode on page 343 to Anchored.
• Set parameters to these values:
• Set IDC Height on page 346 to 100.
• Set IDC Width on page 346 to 90.
• Set IDC X Coordinate on page 345 to -175.
• Set IDC Y Coordinate on page 345 to -50.
• Pull the trigger. The scanner decodes the barcode and captures an image of the text scroll.
• Rotate the form clockwise so the word Capture is along the bottom edge, and pull the trigger. The scanner
decodes the barcode and captures the same image, including orientation. (This example also works with
the form rotated counter-clockwise or upside down).
• Modify the values for height, width, x, and y. Pull the trigger. The captured area changes in size and
location.
• Cover the barcode with a small piece of paper (or your finger) and pull the trigger. The scanner does not
decode the barcode or capture an image.
What This Demonstrates
Anchored mode captures an image of fixed size and location relative to a barcode on the page. Parameters control
the height, width, and location. The IDC firmware requires that a barcode is present in order to capture an image. It
decodes the barcode and uses it to adjust the image to the upright orientation.
Free-Form Mode Demo
• Set IDC Operating Mode on page 343 to Free-Form.
• Pull the trigger. The scanner decodes the barcode and captures an image of the entire rectangle, including
the contents.
• Modify the values for height, width, x, and y. Pull the trigger. Note that the captured image is not affected.
• Rotate the form clockwise so the word Capture is along the bottom edge, and pull the trigger. The scanner
decodes the barcode and captures the same image, including orientation. (This example also works with
the form rotated counterclockwise or upside down).
• Cover the barcode with a small piece of paper and pull the trigger. The scanner does not decode the
barcode and does not re-orient the captured image to the normal position, i.e., with the logo in the
upper-left corner.
What This Demonstrates
Free-Form mode captures an image where a rectangular border on the page determines the size and position. It
adjusts the image to the upright orientation if a barcode is found and decoded in the image.
Linked Mode Demo
Set IDC Operating Mode on page 343 to Linked.
Use the examples from the Free-Form Mode Demo, noting that the last item (covering the barcode) does not
decode the barcode or capture an image.
