5.10.4.18 RSS Code (Reduced Space Symbology)
Enable
Setting this parameter to on enables “RSS Code” scanning capability.
Enable RSS-14
RSS-14 code can be either purely linear or split in half with one half stacked on top
of the other half. Stacking the code reduces the bar code length, and providing the
nominal height of the code is maintained, it can be omni-directionally scanned.
Enable RSS Limited
“RSS-Limited” is restricted, in that it can only encode 14 digit GTINs (global trade
item number) that begin with either a 0 or a 1. It is not stackable and is not designed
to be read omni-directionally.
Enable RSS Expanded
“RSS Expanded” uses the same application identifiers as UCC/EAN-128 codes but
they can be split into sections and stacked several rows high, reducing the length of
the symbol, while increasing the capacity of data that can be stored. “RSS
Expanded” code can be omni-directionally scanned

• Tap on the Scanner drop-down menu, and choose Imager.
5.10.5.1 Imager Options
TekImager Enabled
Setting this option to on enables the imager installed in your hand-held.
Continuous Scan Mode
Setting this parameter to on keeps image capture active and continuously decoding
as long as the scanner button is pressed and held down.
Center Bar Code Only
Note: This parameter must be disabled when reading Composite bar codes.
When more than one bar code is visible in a single snap shot, this parameter allows
you to specify that only the centre image within the imager framing marker be read.
When this parameter is set to on, the target dot is pointed at the centre image and
only that image is returned.
Max Number Barcodes
This parameter specifies the maximum number of bar codes the imager will attempt
to decode in an image. A maximum of 6 bar codes can be decoded at one time.

Chapter 5: Configuration
Barcodes Must Decode
This parameter specifies the minimum number of bar codes that the imager must
decode in order to report success.
Note: This number must be less than the number of bar codes assigned to
“Max Number Barcodes”. The driver validates and reassigns the value
if necessary.
Window Width
“Window Width” determines the width of the captured image in pixels.
Note: The driver will validate and reassign the value assigned to this parameter,
if necessary; the driver will also use the Window Width value to horizontally center the image in the field of view.
Window Height
This parameter determines the height of the captured image in pixels.
Note: The driver will validate and reassign the value assigned to this parameter,
if necessary; the driver will also use “Window Height” value to vertically
center the image in the field of view.
Imager
Dot Time (msec)
The value selected for “Dot Time (msec)” determines (in milliseconds) how long
the targeting dot remains on before the scanner begins capturing images. When you
double-tap on this parameter, a dialog box is displayed in which you can enter a
value of between 0 and 3000. A value of 0 disables the target dot.
5.10.5.2 Imager Advanced Options
Important: Do not adjust the advanced options without first consulting Psion
Teklogix technical support.
Factory Defaults On Reboot
The value assigned to this parameter determines whether or not the driver will
restore the factory defaults to the imager device on the next reboot.
Note: The driver will default the imager device on a ‘clean’ reset, regardless of
the value of this parameter.

Imager
Min Scan Duration
This parameter defines the minimum amount of time in seconds that the imager will
scan when the trigger is pressed and held down without successful decode.
Note: The actual scan duration when the trigger is pressed relies on the value
assigned to Captures Per HW Trigger, below.
Captures Per HW Trigger
The value assigned to this parameter determines the number of captures the imager
device will take while the imager's internal hardware trigger is held down.
Note: This parameter, together with “Min Scan Duration”, determines the
actual scan duration. When the scan trigger is pressed and held down, the
driver starts a timer based on the value of “Min Scan Duration” and also
sends a command to emulate the hardware trigger. When completed, if the
time has not yet expired, it will send another command to the imager
device, forcing the imager to flash again using the value assigned to
“Captures Per HW Trigger”.
Auto Exposure
Important: This parameter value should only be changed by qualified Psion
Teklogix personnel. It should be left at the default value – ‘on’.
Setting this parameter to on allows the imager to make automatic gain, integration
and illumination adjustments based on ambient light before capturing the bar code.
If the adjustment is insufficient, further adjustments are made automatically before
another image is captured.
Fast Converge
Note: “Auto Exposure” must be set to ‘on’ in order for this parameter
to function.
Keep in mind that while this parameter can improve imager performance,
“Fast Converge” increases battery power consumption.
Setting this parameter to on speeds the “Auto Exposure” process. It allows the
imager to rapidly snap a number of bar code capture attempts while finding ideal
values for gain, integration and illumination.
