Re: 1d barcode scanner coding

I used barcorama.zip

I finds the squareness of the touch pro to the barcode matters most, and steady hands

I use the fastpricecheck link posted and it brings up ie with the description and price, found some crackers for my wife, lol

Re: 1d barcode scanner coding

same difference if I use reg or speedy.... must be my "technique"! I'm sure the 2 pots of coffe and half pack of cigarettes don't help the steadiness either.

Re: 1d barcode scanner coding

OK think I got it! haven't had luck with speedy, but reg seems to be working. Black/white barcodes seem to be the best, filling about 60-70 percent of landscape screen, and lots of clean flourescent lighting. I think that was my problem? Ambient room light just doesn't cut it. Went into the basement, flourescent fixtures every 4-6 feet, and i'm shooting like 90% now. (Black and white bars only though) Any other colors, especially those where there's not a huge gradient difference is 40-50%.

BTW - all shots are saved to directory or folder where .exe sits. I had to delete like 500 shots! Guess you could fill a card @ 3.2MP superfine if not cleaned out periodically...

Re: 1d barcode scanner coding

for people who are having problems getting a read on barcodes try scanning with the bar code upside down. seems to work better for me

Re: 1d barcode scanner coding

open camera - touch the screen - touch options (wheel/gear icon) - choose advanced - quality (page 1 i think) - superfine - OK

I'm not sure if it makes a difference in barcorama, but pics in general seem more sharp...
