BarCodeReader - 56
The BarCodeReader tool reads 1D barcodes.

The following format is supported:

  • EAN-13 or UPC-A

The tools EasyBarCode and EasyMatrixCode does 1D and 2D code reading. 

Note: This tool is legacy and are replaced with the free STC-0006 Barcode and STC-0009 DataMatrix.

Setup

Reference - Reference system selection

Position - rectangular ROI setup

The ROI is managed by the buttons

  • Paste - paste the ROI from the image to the scorpion clipboard
  • Copy - copy the ROI to the image from the scorpion clipboard

Point & Click Clipboard Support

The rectangular ROI is defined by four points.


 One point will change the center point.

 

Angle

  • Auto angle detection - tries to find angle of barcode when activated
  • Angle - traceline angle when auto detection off
  • Activity treshold for angle detection - lower value means higher sensitivity

Trace lines

  • Count - number of trace lines
  • Trace step (pixels) - normally 1 - given in pixels
  • Line width (pixels) - 0 - trace line is not averaged - a higher value will average N pixels perpendicular to the trace comb

Search criteria

  • Auto threshold detection - when active the reader tries to find the code gradient before decoding
  • Threshold - edgefinder sensitivity
  • Search mode - Peak | Threshold


Advanced

Filter

  • Smooth base - 3 is normally a good value
  • Smooth counter - 1 default - given i pixels
    • The smoothing increasing with higher values
  • Differentiation
    • 0 - give threshold
    • 1 - 1. order differentiation - the derivative - default normally used
    • 2 - 2. order differentiation

Decoding options

  • Attempt collapsing lines - tries to improve code by using information from several tracelines
  • Search each line separately - try to decode every trace
  • Adjust bars/gaps for uniform width - try to improve decoded line positions
  • Max number of attempts per search line - higher number increasing execution time

Console logging - decoding information to be shown in console window

  • Progress - decoding progress information
  • Statistics
  • Result


Symbologies

EAN13 and UPC-A is available - these codes are equal
