When RaPTr Scanner powers on, or the software is launched, it will enter RUN MODE. While in RUN MODE, RaPTr Scanners will be looking for the configured barcodes and perform all integration functionality required for production settings.
The RUN MODE display has multiple sections that can be used to communicate information to the material handler. To view and modify the available areas take the following steps:
1. Press F5 or click on the RaPTr logo located in the top right corner to reveal the navigation toolbar.
2. Click the DIAGNOSTICS button.
3. Press F5 or click on the RaPTr logo located in the top right corner to hide the navigation toolbar.
Revealing the DIAGNOSTICS overlay will provide information on the barcodes being scanned and camera/inspection framerates. Also, it provides headers for the available sections on the UI (User Interface) and allows for modification of their sizes (click and drag on the dashed lines). Any changes to the size of the UI sections will take effect immediately and will persist through power down. See the following graphic and table for more information about the sections of the UI, as well as other key features.
# on Image | Description |
1 | Current Version of RaPTr Scanner |
2 | Order data section, also known as Meta-Data, is an area where custom HTML can be displayed. For many applications, this includes specifics related to the order being fulfilled by the truck that is present at the dock door. |
3 | The server responses section is an area where the responses to the barcode read events appear. The responses do not persist and are instead only present for the length of the Server Response Dwell Duration. If more than one response is present, the individual responses are scaled so that all responses fit in the area. When a barcode read event is triggered, and a server response is not received within 500ms, a blue waiting symbol will appear to indicate that the scanner is waiting on RaPTr Server to receive a response. Also located in this section are Custom Event Messages that are sent by the Server. |
4 | The image section contains the live feed of each camera. If a barcode is found in an image, a rectangle will be overlayed over the barcode. The color of the rectangle is decided by the response color defined in the barcode read event response. If no barcode has been received, the rectangle will be blue. Note: Images are displayed by the scanner after they have been inspected for barcodes, so there might be a slight delay in the video feed. |
5 | The bottom section of the screen is reserved for scanner information and alarming. The alarm banner will give visibility into errors with the scanners such as: loss of communication to the server, camera, etc. It can also display errors that occur on the server to ensure that corrective action can be taken as quickly as possible. |
