When you take a photo of your asset, you have two different camera options to use. You can use
the full color camera, or the 2D barcode scanner’s own lower-resolution black & white camera). The
B&W camera is significantly faster to use, in practice, since the barcode scanner device is already
powered up by this point, and ready to capture images. You can select which camera to use with
the small radio buttons to the left of the image preview:
The Barcode scan is first. Just pull the trigger to
scan a barcode and advance to the next step.
When the barcode is successfully scanned, it is
displayed in the middle of the screen.
Next step is reading the RFID tag. Just pull the
trigger, press the Scan button above the
keypad, or tap on the RFID button again to read
the EPC.
The color camera interface uses the Windows
Mobile camera capture dialog. Press the Enter
key on the keypad (not the gun trigger) to take
the snapshot. Press the OK button when done.
After taking the color snapshot, you see
your image preview back on the Asset
screen, and it is all ready to save now.
