Socket Mobile 7 OPTIONAL: Test Bar Codes

OPTIONAL: Test Bar Codes

SocketScan includes a Test feature that makes it easy to determine the

symbology, number of characters, and decoded data (in either ASCII or

Hex) of any bar code supported by the scanner. This is especially useful if

you encounter a bar code that the scanner will not decode by default.

1. In the main screen of SocketScan, tap Test.

2. The Test Scan screen will appear. If desired, check the View as Hex box

to view scanned data in hexadecimal format. Otherwise, data will appear

as ASCII.

3. Scan the bar code. You can either press the trigger button on the CHS,

or press the Scan button on the screen. SocketScan will report the

properties of the bar code.

4. After you complete your testing, tap OK.
