Format Output Step

Format

 

Output 

allows you to configure preambles and postambles to add 

to symbol data output. The 

Simplified 

version of this control allows you to 

Append Return

 or 

Append Tab

 after each string of data output. The 

Advanced 

version allows you to choose from a wide variety of keyboard 

characters that can be output as a preamble or postamble. You can also 

add a second postamble if required.

Decode Step

The 

Decode 

step allows you to select which symbologies to enable and 

disable. Clicking the 

1D

 and 

2D 

checkboxes will enable or disable all the 

symbologies in that group. The 

Gear icon

 brings up a 

Symbology 

Settings

 dialog, allowing you to modify specific parameters.

Performance Step (DPM Optimization)

The 

Performance

 step allows you to optimize the reader for 

Direct 

Part Mark

 (

DPM

) decoding. A DPM is a permanent mark created by 

laser etch, chemical etch, or other method directly on a substrate. 

DPMs are often harder to read than other symbols, and may require 

a few attempts before finding optimal settings. The 

Decoder Effort

 

slider has four settings: 

Level 1

, corresponding to 

Min

 on the slider; 

Level 2

Level 3

; and 

Level 4

, corresponding to 

Max 

on the slider. 

As Decoder Effort is moved toward 

Max

, the decoder spends an 

increasing amount of time trying to decode the symbol. 
In 

Level 4

, you can also enable the 

Enhance 

option, which improves 

readability by allowing additional processing for poorly-formed marks. 
The 

Illumination 

options are 

Direct

Indirect

, and 

Cycle

Clicking the 

Question Mark icon

 brings up a dialog with more detail 

about each level of decoder effort.

Cycle Step

The 

Cycle

 step allows you to choose between 

Manual 

and 

Presentation 

trigger modes. In Manual mode, a decode is attempted when you pull 

the trigger. In Presentation mode, the read cycle begins when a 

symbol is detected moving into the reader’s field of view. 

Note: 

The reader is automatically set to Presentation mode when 

placed in the V410-H Stand.

 

The 

Setup 

view allows you to configure the reader, view the current 

captured image, and view decoded symbol data. 
The following read cycle steps are shown at the left side of the screen:

view also allows you to create a 

New Setup 

without using 

Assisted Setup

. When you click the 

Create a New Setup 

button, 

WebLink

 searches for any differences from default in the reader 

parameters. If no differences from default are found, the 

Setup 

view 

appears. If differences from default are found, an alert appears asking if 

you want to restore default settings.
