2Using di-soric ID
This section is designed to help you understand the structure and application of di-soric
ID.
When you open di-soric ID, unless otherwise specified in the di-soric ID Preferences dia-
log accessible from the Options heading on the menu toolbar, you will enter EZ Mode for
initial setup. From there, you can enter Application Mode (App Mode) and access several
configuration menus (Communications, Read Cycle, Symbologies, I/O Parameters, a
Terminal interface, and a Utilities interface).
di-soric ID can be used to configure the ID-07 Handheld Imager in the following ways:
•Tree Controls: Each configuration menu contains a list of all option settings that pertain
to that specific element of imager operation. For example, the Communications menu
shows a Communications Mode command, and then the options RS-232 Serial, USB
Keyboard, and USB Native (HID), all of which are accessible from a dropdown menu.
•Graphic User Interfaces: Settings can be configured using such point-and-click tools
as radio buttons, tabs, spin boxes, check boxes, and drag-and-drop functions.
•Terminal: di-soric ID’s Terminal interface allows you to send configuration and utility com-
mands directly to the imager by typing them in the provided text field.

EZ Mode
EZ Mode
The EZ Mode screen is the first thing you will see when you start di-soric ID. EZ Mode
will help you get your imager up and running quickly, and will acquaint you with the di-
soric ID interface.
Click Start to upload the most recent image
acquired before releasing the trigger. When an
image is captured, it is displayed here. Click Save
Image to save it to a location of your choice. Good
read images show a green border around the symbol.
If you hover your cursor over the symbol, you will
see the illumination, gain, and resolution settings
that were used in capturing the image. Symbol data
is displayed in the area under the Save Image button.
The purpose of Dot Peen Enhanced in Illumination Quick Setup
is to optimize settings for typical dot peen marks. Dot Peen
Enhanced causes the imager to run a two step illumination
sequence (Low Angle and then Red Dome) and matches the
morphological operator (Grow Dark and Grow Light) to the
expected dot peen response. The size of the morphological
operator is selectable (Small, Medium, or Large). These settings
can also be controlled by programming symbols (see Dot Peen
Enhanced Illumination Settings).
