Setting bar code
zone properties
Bar code zones provide Capture Software with important information, such as
dimensions of the bar code and the bar code type. After you draw a bar code
zone, Capture Software attempts to read the bar code in the zone and
automatically displays the Bar Code Zone Properties window with whatever
values Capture Software could determine about the bar code.
When the Bar Code Zone Properties window is displayed, follow the
procedures below to further define bar code zone properties:
1. Enter a name for the bar code zone in the
Label
field.
This name identifies the bar code and appears in Index setup as
BC_[Label] in the list of default values. To assign a bar code value to an
index field, refer to “Index setup tab — Default values” in Chapter 4.
IMPORTANT: The bar code Label does not define or identify an Capture
Software Index field. In Application Setup, all index fields must
be defined in the Index tab. To use a bar code for an index field,
you must assign the appropriate BC_[Label] as a default value
for the index field.
