Scanner Settings

The Scanner Settings section allows you to configure the following settings:

  • Engine Settings - you can enable the following modes for the scan engine:

    • Fuzzy 1D processing - Optimizes decoding performance on 1D barcodes, including damaged and poor quality symbols (enabled by default).

    • Display Mode - Improves barcode reading performance off mobile phones and electronic displays.

    • Picklist Mode - Enables picking out and decoding a barcode from a group of barcodes that are printed close together by placing the aiming pattern on the specified barcode.

  • Feedback Profiles - you can select the scanner's audio feedback: Normal (default), Long, or Silent.

    • Scanner's Haptic Feedback is enabled by default but you can disable it at any time.

  • Show barcode content on display - disable or enable the barcode echo feature for MARK Display which displays the scanned barcode for the set amount of time

    • Scanned barcode duration - The default value is 5 seconds but you can select for how long the barcode content displays on the screen.

  • Sleep Mode - select the amount of idle time before your device goes into sleep mode. Default is set to 15 minutes.

  • Scanner Illumination - adjust the brightness of the scanner's LED camera flash (percentage) in order to optimize battery consumption in areas of good lighting

    Important

    Scanner Illumination is developed for specific use cases and can significantly alter the scanner performance and range. We advise you to test the feature extensively before implementing it in your work processes.

  • TX Power Attenuation - adjust the signal strength of your scanners (expressed in dBm) in order to reduce the scanner's battery power consumption. The default and maximum value of TX power is 0 dBm.

  • Beacon signal OrangeBETAtag1.png - enable emitting of the beacon signal from your scanner when it is Inactive or Charging and register it with your Android device to ensure scanners are charged for next shift and do not get lost. Monitor and improve your workforce's habits of charging the devices after each shift and quickly identify devices that are not charging or not in use. Visit this page to learn more about setting up the feature.

  • Inactive mode feedback OrangeBETAtag1.png - make your ProGlove scanners beep and/or vibrate when they're not in use (i.e. they have been taken out of the wearable, but not returned to charger). Select at least one Alert type (noise or vibration) and the time in which you want the feedback to repeat. The default is for the Noise to start Immediately, last 10 seconds and repeat every minute.

  • Out of range feedback - set your scanners to alert their users when out of range from the defined network. To enable the feature, select at least one Alert type (noise or vibration) and then the type of feedback and time in which you want it to repeat. The defaults are Noise and Normal sound type, with a 5-second alert period.
