3.4 Reading your first document
Use ADRS to read and display the information in a scanned document. The software displays the
information in an easy-to-read format so that you can quickly check the authenticity and validity of
the document.
1. Ensure that ATOM is switched on and connected to the host and that you have started ADRS.
If ATOM is ready to read a document, the blue power light illuminates on ATOM and the
message in the status bar at the bottom of the ADRS window indicates that ATOM is ready.
A message displayed in the status bar with a pink background indicates a problem. Refer to
Document reader software status messages
(on page 16) for details.
2. Place the document that you want to read onto the glass platen. If you are reading a large
document, such as a passport, slide the document under the ‘shark fin’ document guides to
ensure that any bent corners are eased down for a perfect read.
ATOM captures high-resolution, uncompressed images in visible, infrared and ultraviolet light (if
configured).
The
Summary
tab in the Access-IS Document Reader window displays the images and other
details collected from the scanned document.
Images
- Displays captured images.
Biometric Data
- Displays RFID data (if applicable).
Barcode Information
- Displays barcode and validation information (if barcode reading is
enabled on ATOM).
Document Information
- Displays MRZ data and a face-detect image (if applicable).
3. Review the information displayed on the
Summary
tab.
Figure 12: ADRS Summary tab. Note the version number of the software displays on the right side of the
status bar, next to the time taken to read and process the document.
The version shown is Version: 1.0.0.0; the precise layout may differ in newer versions of the software.
