Columns are numbered from 0 to 751, rows from 0 to 479. Specify four values for Top, Left, Bottom, and Right, where Top and Bottom correspond to row pixel addresses, and Left and Right correspond to column pixel addresses.
5 - 10 Symbol DS9808 Product Reference Guide Image Size (Number of Pixels) Parameter # F0h, 2Eh This option alters image resolution before compression. Multiple pixels are combined to one pixel, resulting in a smaller image containing the original content with reduced resolution.
Imaging Preferences 5 - 11 Image Brightness (Target White) Parameter # F0h 86h Type: Byte Range: 1 - 240 This parameter sets the Target White value used in Snapshot and Video Viewfinder mode when using auto exposure. White and black are defined as 240 decimal and 1, respectively. Setting the value to the factory default of 180 sets the white level of the image to ~180. To set the Image Brightness parameter, scan Image Brightness below followed by three numeric bar codes representing the value.
5 - 12 Symbol DS9808 Product Reference Guide JPEG Target File Size Parameter # F4h, F1h, 31h Type: Word Range: 5-350 This parameter defines the target JPEG file size in terms 1 Kilobytes (1024 bytes). The default value is 160 kB which represents 160 Kilobytes. ! CAUTION JPEG compress may take 10 to 15 seconds based on the amount of information in the target image. Scanning JPEG Quality Selector (default setting) on page 5-11 produces a compressed image that is consistent in quality and compression time.
Imaging Preferences 5 - 13 Image Enhancement Parameter # F1h, 34h This parameter configures the digital scanner's Image Enhance feature. This feature uses a combination of edge sharpening and contrast enhancement to produce an image that is visually pleasing. The levels of image enhancement are: • Off (0) - Default • Low (1) • Med (2) • High (3).
5 - 14 Symbol DS9808 Product Reference Guide Image File Format Selector Parameter # F0h, 30h Select an image format appropriate for the system (BMP, TIFF, or JPEG). The digital scanner stores captured images in the selected format.
Imaging Preferences 5 - 15 Bits Per Pixel Parameter # F0h, 2Fh Select the number of significant bits per pixel (BPP) to use when capturing an image.

Select increasing levels of security for decreasing levels of bar code quality. There is an inverse relationship between security and digital scanner aggressiveness, so choose only that level of security necessary for any given application.
Symbologies 10 - 77 Intercharacter Gap Size Parameter # F0h, 7Dh The Code 39 and Codabar symbologies have an intercharacter gap that is typically quite small. Due to various bar code-printing technologies, this gap can grow larger than the maximum size allowed, preventing the digital scanner from decoding the symbol. If this problem occurs, scan the Large Intercharacter Gaps parameter to tolerate these out-of-specification bar codes.
10 - 78 Symbol DS9808 Product Reference Guide Macro PDF Features Macro PDF is a special feature for concatenating multiple PDF symbols into one file. The scanner can decode symbols that are encoded with this feature, and can store more than 64 Kb of decoded data stored in up to 50 MacroPDF symbols. CAUTION When printing, keep each Macro PDF sequence separate, as each sequence has unique identifiers. Do not mix bar codes from several Macro PDF sequences, even if they encode the same data.
Chapter 11 Advanced Data Formatting Introduction Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) is a means of customizing data before transmission to the host device. Use ADF to edit scan data to suit requirements. Implement ADF by scanning a related series of bar codes which program the digital scanner with ADF rules. For information and programming bar codes for ADF, refer to the Advanced Data Formatting Programmer Guide, p/n 72E-69680-xx. NOTE ADF rules modify input to the parser.

Chapter 12 Driver’s License Set Up (DS9808-DL / DS9808-LL) Introduction The DS9808-DL and DS9808-LL digital scanner is capable of parsing out information from standard US driver's licenses and certain other American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) compliant ID cards. Parsing can be achieved in one of two ways: • Internally embedded algorithms - scanning bar codes activates algorithms internally embedded in the digital scanner to produce formatted data.
12 - 2 Symbol DS9808 Product Reference Guide Driver’s License Parsing There are three options available for programming the digital scanner: • No driver's license parsing (default) - disables the feature. • Embedded driver's license parsing - this does not require Motorola software (.DLL). Scan the bar codes on the following pages in the order indicating the sequence of data fields that the digital scanner outputs.

Scan any of the field bar codes on the following pages, or Send Keystroke (Control Characters and Keyboard Characters) on page 12-21 to complete the parsing rule. 3. After entering the entire rule, scan Save Driver’s License Parse Rule to save the rule.
12 - 4 Symbol DS9808 Product Reference Guide Driver’s License Parse Field Bar Codes (continued) The parse fields currently supported begin below. Not all IDs present data in the same format. For example, some IDs may have separate fields for first name, last name, and middle initial, and others may have a single field with the entire name. In addition, some IDs may expire on the subject's birth date and the actual expiration date field may only indicate the year.

Appendix F Signature Capture Code Introduction CapCode, a signature capture code, is a special pattern that encloses a signature area on a document and allows a scanner to capture a signature. There are several accepted patterns that allow automatic identification of different signatures on the same form. For example, on the federal tax return 1040 form there are three signature areas, one each for two joint filers, and one for a professional preparer.
F-2 Symbol DS9808 Product Reference Guide CapCode Pattern Structure A CapCode pattern structure consists of a start pattern followed by a separator space, a signature capture box, a second separator space, and then a stop pattern. Assuming that X is the dimension of the thinnest element, the start and stop patterns each contains 9X total width in 4 bars and 3 spaces. A 7X quiet zone is required to the left and to the right of the CapCode pattern.
Signature Capture Code F-3 Table F-2 lists selectable parameters used to generate the image of the captured signature. Table F-2 User Defined CapCode Parameters Parameter Defined Width Number of pixels Height Number of pixels Format JPEG, BMP, TIFF JPEG quality 1 (most compression) to 100 (best quality) Bits Per Pixel (not applicable to JPEG format) 1 (2 levels) 4 (16 levels) 8 (256 levels) BMP format does not use compression, JPEG and TIFF formats do.
F-4 Symbol DS9808 Product Reference Guide Additional Capabilities Regardless of how the signature is captured, the output signature image is de-skewed and right-side up. A scanner that captures signatures automatically determines whether it is scanning a signature or a bar code. You can disable the signature capturing capability in a scanner.

Glossary - 10 Symbol DS9808 Product Reference Guide U UDP. User Datagram Protocol. A protocol within the IP protocol suite that is used in place of TCP when a reliable delivery is not required. For example, UDP is used for real-time audio and video traffic where lost packets are simply ignored, because there is no time to retransmit. If UDP is used and a reliable delivery is required, packet sequence checking and error notification must be written into the applications. UPC. Universal Product Code.
