Calibration Progress Output Examples (Terminal)

Quick Focus

This mode is only run if Quick Focus calibration mode is enabled (see Focus Position). Quick Focus calibration mode is designed to quickly locate the focus setting for an object at the center of the imager's field of view. There is no terminal output for this operation.

Search Pass

The purpose of Search Pass is to decode a symbol in as few configurations as possible during calibration. This process is designed to quickly identify symbology type, and any image processing parameters that are already calibrated, as well as determining focus position.

Focus Pass

The purpose of Focus Pass is to determine the optimal focal position of the optical system. This is accomplished by determining the inside and outside focus positions and then recording the center position as the desired focal position.

Medium Pass

The theory behind Medium Pass is to develop a readable range from which to dial in a decoded symbol.
