IMAGING COMMANDS
The 8680i is like a digital camera in the way it captures, manipulates, and transfers
images. The following commands allow you to alter the way the 8680i performs
these functions.
Single-Use Basis
Imaging Commands with their modifiers send instructions to the 8680i on a sin-
gle-use basis, and take effect for a single image capture. Once that capture is com-
plete, the 8680i reverts to its imaging default settings. If you want to permanently
change a setting, you must use the serial default commands (see
Chapter 9 ). When
the serial default command is used, that selection becomes the new, permanent
setting for the 8680i.
Command Syntax
Multiple modifiers and commands can be issued within one sequence. If additional
modifiers are to be applied to the same command, just add the modifiers to that
command. For example, to add 2 modifiers to the Image Snap command, such as
setting the Imaging Style to 1P and the Wait for Trigger to 1T, you would enter
IMGSNP1P1T .
Note: After processing an image capture command (IMGSNP or IMGBOX), you must follow
it with an IMGSHP command if you want to see it on your terminal.
To add a command to a sequence, each new command is separated with a semico-
lon. For example, to add the Image Ship command to the above sequence, you
would enter IMGSNP1P1T;IMGSHP.
The imaging commands are:
Image Snap - IMGSNP (page 156)
Image Ship - IMGSHP (page 159)
Intelligent Signature Capture - IMGBOX (page 169)
