Scanners are commonly used tools in daily office work. Now printers are beginning to come to homes, and many of today’s printers are all-in-one machines. Below I have compiled for you how to use barcode scanners. , hope it helps you!
How to use a barcode scanner
The optical imaging component is an important part of the scanner. During use, pay attention to keeping the optical components clean to avoid dust from affecting the working performance of the scanner and reducing the scanning quality. When cleaning, do not disassemble or repair without authorization, because the optical components in the photoelectric conversion device have very high position requirements. Changing the position of the optical components will affect the imaging effect of the barcode scanner. Therefore, when cleaning, scrub with detergent first, and then wipe clean with a dry rag.
Barcode scanners are not as easy to install as ordinary electrical appliances. Different interface models have different installation methods. Before installation, check whether the computer can properly configure the relevant barcode equipment, and then implant the corresponding Some drivers also need to enter the BIOS settings to modify properties. Therefore, when installing the barcode scanner, different treatments must be done according to different models.
How to use a variety of barcode scanners
1. The most basic one is the product barcode (that is, one-dimensional code) scanning function. Take a product with a barcode on the package. Click the scan button. When the scanning window appears, align the frame with the barcode. Then click the Start Scan button to start scanning. This is done to save power. Many scanning software scans as soon as it comes out. In fact, the scanning operation consumes a lot of power. Adding this button can control the start and end of the actual scanning, saving power. There is also the line in the scanning box. Other scanning software only has a decorative effect, but here it has a meaning: green means that the system is idle, and red means busy, which means it is scanning. There is also a prompt message at the bottom. If the scan is unsuccessful, please adjust the distance between the phone and the object. Note that when scanning 1D codes on a mobile phone, it must have an autofocus function, so HTC TATOO will not work.
2. Regarding scanning QR codes (QRCode is currently supported), you must first select the barcode type in the settings. Then it was scanned in the same way. Some users require the system to automatically identify barcode types, eliminating the trouble of setting them up. In fact, it is very simple to do this, and many other scanning software also do this. The reason why I don't take this approach is to save you power. This is about the principle of scanning. When scanning again, if the barcode type is not limited, when a scan fails, the system will try all barcode types. In other words, if you don't specify the type, the system first assumes that the scanned one-dimensional code is a one-dimensional code. If it fails, try the two-dimensional code. You must know that there are at least a dozen types. How much electricity does this cost?
3. Currently, if the QR code is a URL, the software will automatically open the web page. If it is an email, the mail software will be launched. If you're scanning a train ticket, she'll tell you.
4. Just scan the EMS barcode, which is also a type of one-dimensional code, but because it is relatively long, it requires certain skills. If you practice a lot, I believe you can do it! After scanning the barcode, the system will launch the package inquiry interface to let you know some information about the package delivery.
5. The barcode you scan can also be posted to SMS, email, or even Kaixin.com through the sharing function. In this way, your fans will know what products you are interested in (can I buy it for you?)
6. There is also a function of generating barcodes. This is also very useful. You can add your own contact information method to create a QR code, which can be read if the other party has barcode scanning software. You can also print it on your own T-shirt. When you go out on the street, people who want to strike up a conversation with you can take a photo, read their contact information and strike up a conversation with you. Of course, the QR code can encode any character, and you can also make a curse word or something else. I think you must have more imagination than me.
7. After scanning the barcode, you can view other information. On the introduction page, there is real-time price information for general commodities. There is also a description of the product, this part is waiting for everyone to complete. Other scanning inquiry software can only view, but you cannot edit product information. You can do it with us! If there is no introduction to this product, whoever writes it first will get a point.
Moreover, if you want to modify your product introduction, you must have more points than you do. Whoever comments more can modify other people's product introductions. So be sure to apply for your own account and keep your points.
8. Applying for an account is very simple. You can apply directly in the software.
9. In addition to product introduction, you can also post comments on the product, or purchase or sell information. This is on the comments page. On the product introduction homepage, the latest comments posted by users will be displayed in real time.
10. A small function. If you want to refresh the page, please shake your phone. The intensity of shaking is controlled by the threshold in the settings. Personally I think this feature is cool.
11. The products you scanned will be recorded on the history page to remind you in the future.
12. We have also added a friend function. When adding friends, enter your email. The other party also joins you, so that you can see each other's scanning history. What did she (he) buy today? Is there anything delicious? That's it.
13. In the newer version, some barcode-based game functions have also been introduced. First join the game, then scan a product and submit it to the participating game on the product introduction page. The game's host can award you an award based on your submission. You can also build your own game, which is more complicated and will be discussed in detail later.
14. Other small functions are to see which products have the most reviews, who has the highest points, etc.
