Flash
Non-volatile memory for storing application and configuration files.
Host
A computer that serves other terminals in a network, providing services such as network
control, database access, special programs, supervisory programs, or programming
languages.
Image Processing
Any form of information processing for which the input is an image and the output is for
instance a set of features of the image.
Image Resolution
The number of rows and columns of pixels in an image. The total number of pixels of an
image sensor.
Image Sensor
Device converting a visual image to an electric signal. It is usually an array of Charge
Coupled Devices (CCD) or CMOS pixel sensors.
IEC
(International Electrotechnical Commission): Global organization that publishes international
standards for electrical, electronic, and other technologies.
IP Address
The terminal’s network address. Networks use IP addresses to determine where to send
data that is being transmitted over a network. An IP address is a 32-bit number referred to as
a series of 8-bit numbers in decimal dot notation (e.g., 130.24.34.03). The highest 8-bit
number you can use is 254.
ISO
(International Organization for Standardization): A network of the national standards
institutes of several countries producing world-wide industrial and commercial standards.
LED (Light Emitting Diode)
A low power electronic light source commonly used as an indicator light. It uses less power
than an incandescent light bulb but more than a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).
LED Illuminator
LED technology used as an extended lighting source in which extra optics added to the chip
allow it to emit a complex radiated light pattern.
Matrix Symbologies (2D Codes)
An arrangement of regular polygon shaped cells where the center-to-center distance of
adjacent elements is uniform. Matrix symbols may include recognition patterns which do not
follow the same rules as the other elements within the symbol.
Multidrop
A communication protocol for connecting two or more readers in a network with a
concentrator (or controller) and characterized by the use of individual device addresses.
Multi-row (or Stacked) Symbologies
Symbologies where a long symbol is broken into sections and stacked one upon another
similar to sentences in a paragraph.
