Calibrate the DataMan 100 Perform Code Quality Verication
In order to perform Direct Part Mark verication your reader must be
calibrated as described in the previous section. To read symbols and
view verication results, perform the following steps:
Start the DataMan Setup tool and connect to your reader.1.
Enable the 2. Turn Code Quality On icon in the tool bar.
Select the 4. Results Display task pane.
Place the symbol under the reader and press the trigger. The symbol 5.
must be centered within the eld of view, and the reader must

Formatting Output Data
Use the Data Formatting task pane of the DataMan Setup Tool to construct
a customized output string each time you read and verify a symbol. This
allows the verier to return Code Quality results when connected to a third-
party application instead of the DataMan Setup Tool.
In addition to standard formatting, the DataMan Setup Tool supports the
use of Perl-Style Regular Expression features in Advanced mode.
Data Logging
Use the Data Logging task pane to generate a Code Quality Report for
each symbol that you read and verify. Be aware that data logging works
only when the reader is connected to the DataMan Setup Tool.
In addition, you can enable the Prex lename with option to give
each Code Quality Report a set prex.
Select 1. View->Advanced if the DataMan Setup Tool is not in
Advanced mode.
Select the 2. Data Logging task pane under System Settings.
Enable the 3. Report Storage option and use the Save in option, as
shown in the following example, to congure a directory location to
save each report along with an image of the veried symbol:
24 DataMan 100 Verier Quick Reference
DataMan 100 Verier Quick Reference 25
Saving the Setup
Once you have congured your reader with the settings you want it to use,
choose System->Save Settings to save the conguration.
Choose File->Save Conguration to save the conguration to a directory on
the PC. A saved conguration can be opened later and uploaded to any reader,
allowing multiple readers to use the same conguration settings.
Be aware, however, that each reader must be calibrated individually.
Code Quality Conguration Codes
Use the following Code Quality conguration symbols to quickly turn
Code Quality on and off without connecting the reader to the DataMan
Setup Tool. Additional Code Quality Reader Conguration symbols are
available in the online documentation.
Code Quality On
Code Quality Off
