testing. Use ESP in the following circumstances:

• Device discovery to find the reader IP address;

•If you only have an RS-232 (serial) connection;

•Updating Scanner firmware;

•Using the Configuration Database;

•Creating barcodes for reader configuration;

• Generating Symbol Quality reports.

Step 5 Steps 6 – 8

Step 7 — Explore the Start View

The Start View is the initial view you will see when the session begins. The connected reader is shown,

along with its user-defined name, IP address, Reader Model, Serial Number, MAC ID, Firmware

Version, Sensor, Optics, Decoder, and Speed. This view allows you to choose Assisted Setup, to

Create a New Setup, or to Load a Setup.

Refer to WebLink Help for information about Advanced Settings and Terminal functionality.

Click the gear icon to show Save,

New, Load, Advanced, Language,

Terminal, Beeper, Guided Tour,

Restore Default Settings, Manage

About WebLink.

Step 8 — Create a New Setup or Load an Existing Setup

Assisted Setup

When you click the Assisted Setup button in the Start View, a dialog will appear asking you a series of

application-based questions. Based on your answers, WebLink generates your initial setup automatically.

Once the setup is created, you can fine-tune its parameters in the Setup View.

New Setup

The Start View also allows you to create a New Setup without using Assisted Setup. When you click the

New Setup button, WebLink searches for any differences from default in the reader parameters. If no

differences from default are found, you will see the Setup View. If differences from default are found, an

alert will appear asking if you want to restore the reader to factory defaults.

Load Setup

Select Load Setup to load an existing .json WebLink setup file.

Step 3 — Mount and Position the Reader

• Position the reader several inches from the symbol. You may need to reposition the reader a few

times to find the ideal distance.

• Tip the reader relative to the symbol to avoid the glare of direct (specular) reflection.

• Symbols can be rotated (tilted) at any angle; however, for best results symbols should be aligned

with the field of view. In the case of linear symbols, aligning the bars in the direction of their movement

(ladder orientation) will minimize the chances of blurring and will result in more consistent decodes.

Important: Avoid excessive skew or pitch. Maximum skew is ±30°; maximum pitch is ±30°. The

illustration below shows approximate skew axis, pitch axis, and tilt axis.

Step 12 — Configure Symbology Settings

Clicking the gear icon at the bottom of the Decode dialog brings up Symbology Settings. This allows

you to configure every parameter for every available code type.

Data Matrix error correction parameters are

shown in this example, but you can configure any

parameter for any of the code types supported by

WebLink. All parameter changes for all code types

take effect immediately.

Step 9 — Explore the Setup View

The Setup View allows you to configure all aspects of a setup. The left pane of the UI gives you the

ability to configure Cycle type, Acquire, Decode, Match String, Format Output, and Outputs 1, 2,

and 3parameters.

Clicking the Save icon in the upper right of the interface saves current settings to the reader’s flash

memory so the settings will be available when the reader is rebooted.

The question mark icon in the upper right of the interface opens WebLink Help.

The gear icon in the upper right of the interface brings up Application Settings.

Step 10 — Configure Read Cycle Settings

The Cycle section of the Setup View allows you to modify the trigger, determine the number of symbols

for the reader to expect, and set Read Cycle Timeout. A dropdown menu of various Cycle types provides

a variety of options, each with configurable parameters.

Presentation

This mode, commonly referred to as “hand presentation mode”, uses Continuous Trigger along with

Continuous Capture Mode and a Timeout at End of Read Cycle. Green Flash Mode is set to Static

Presentation and the Green Flash Duration is set to 1second.

Continuous

This mode allows you to set the Read Cycle Timeout and the expected number of symbols.

Triggered

This mode sets the Read Cycle to Serial Data and Edge, End of Read Cycle is set to Timeout orNew

Trigger, and Capture Mode is set to Rapid Capture with 1 capture. You can adjust the Serial Trigger,

Trigger Delay, Timeout, and Number of Symbols.

Start / Stop

This mode uses External Level with a Read Cycle Timeout and Continuous Capture, allowing you to

set Leading Edge and Trailing Edgeas well as the Serial Trigger and the Start and Stop Characters.

Custom

This mode allows you a wider variety of read cycle scenarios. Use this mode to select Trigger mode and

to set Serial Trigger Character and Trigger Delay; to select Capture Mode and to set Number of

Captures, Rapid Capture Mode, and Delay between Images; and to select the End Cycle On setting

as well as Timeout and Number of Symbols.

Step 11 — Configure Acquire Settings

Acquire settings allow you to set Exposure (signified by the sun icon) and Gain (signified by the dial

and right-pointing arrow icon) in real time. Clicking any of these settings will cause a control to appear,

allowing you to modify that setting. Settings take effect immediately.

When Auto Photometry is enabled instead of Standard, Exposure and Gain are read-only. The A

shown on the sun and dial icons signifies that Auto Photometry is enabled. Auto Photometry constantly

determines the best Exposure and Gain settings during each read cycle.

Auto Photometry

Step 13 — Format Output and Match String

Format Output, when enabled in the Setup View, allows you to determine the many ways in which

barcode data can be formatted and parsed before it is output as a data string. You can also set Preamble

and Postamble in this dialog.

Match Options and Match String Database, accessible by clicking the Match String section in the

Setup View, allow you to set the match code mode, text output, new master, and match string database.

Step 14 — Run the Application

In the Run view, you can observe the progress of the setup as it follows the parameters you have

defined. The right panel of the UI shows Counts for Cycles, Reads, No Reads, and Mismatches, as

well as Rate information for Capture, Decode, Overhead, Total Read, and Trigger Rate, as well as

Output Data. A "filmstrip" below the image area shows each image capture with a green check mark

for good reads and a red x for no reads.
