Visual Xpress Introduction

Note: The PQA report is sent out as a second data/beep sequence after the bar code data. The report has its own Hand Held Products code ID of >(0X3E) so it can be uniquely identified.

You can exit Full Report mode by either typing the menu command, 2D_PQA0, if you are using Quick*View, or by scanning the following bar code:

Visual Xpress provides a wide range of PC-based programming functions that can be performed on an imager connected to your PC's COM port. Visual Xpress allows you to download upgrades to the imager's firmware, change programmed parameters, and create and print programming bar codes. Using Visual Xpress, you can even save/open the programming parameters for an imager. This saved file can be e-mailed or, if required, you can create a single bar code that contains all the customized programming parameters and mail or fax that bar code to any location. Users in other locations can scan the bar code to load in the customized programming.

To communicate with an imager, Visual Xpress requires that the PC have at least one available serial communication port, or a serial port emulation using a physical USB port. If you are using the serial port and RS-232 cable, an external power supply is required. When using a USB serial port emulation, only a USB cable is required.

Visual Xpress Operations

The Visual Xpress software performs the following operations:

Scan Data

Scan Data allows you to scan bar codes and display the bar code data in a window. Scan Data lets you send serial commands to the imager and receive imager response that can be seen in the Scan Data window. The data displayed in the Scan Data window can either be saved in a file or printed.

Configure

Configure displays the programming and configuration data of the imager. The imager's programming and configuration data is grouped into different categories. Each category is displayed as a tree item under the "Configure" tree node in the application explorer. When one of these tree nodes is clicked, the right-hand side is loaded with the parameters' form belonging to that particular
