In this screenshot images from the scanner are displayed along with the codeline and checksum information.
The Expo automatically breaks up ICAO conforming document codelines into the individually displayed fields
and the document type (see box top left). The tabs across the top allow various configuration options to be
changed. The status bar at the bottom contains the following in left to right order:
•
Blue toggle block shows a new document has been read.
•
Name of the scheme in use.
•
Scanner status: should be “Enabled”. If “Asleep” or “Disabled” then use the control box to enable
the scanner. If “Terminated” or “Errored” then you have a problem (see error report to the right of
this field and for more complex problems see the Troubleshooting Section 4.6 for more help).
•
