1 | Introduction

The Socket 2D Scan Car (2DSC) gives you the freedom

to scan linear, stacked, 2D/matrix or postal bar codes

anytime anywhere using a variety of Windows-based

mobile computers. You can also use the Socket 2DSC to

capture VGA grayscale images.

The world’s only bar code image scanner built into a

CompactFlash card, the 2DSC is sleekly designed with no

cables or batteries. Simply pop in the scanner when you

need it, and remove it when you’re done. The card’s

compact design lets you scan with only one hand when

used with a PDA.

The 2DSC is available in two decode configurations: The “2DSC 5B (Basic)”

configuration adds all linear 1D, 2D/Matrix and postal symbologies, as well as

OCR-A & B. The “2DSC 5X (Xtreme Performance)” configuration reads

high density or small front linear 1D, all 2D/Matrix and postal symbologies as

well as OCR-A & B. Refer to the product specifications in Appendix A for a

more detailed explanation of the two decode configurations. In order to switch

configurations, you must contact customer support and send the 2DSC back to

Socket.

About the Software

SocketScan™ software functions as a “keyboard wedge,” sending

scanned bar code data directly into any active Windows program.

Your application will accept the data as if it were manually typed.

The SocketScan Trigger™ launches an on-screen trigger icon

that you can tap on to trigger the 2DSC. This serves as an

alternative to using a hardware button on your device. Windows

Mobile only. Must be installed separately from the CD.

The Socket 2DSC Demo™ lets you perform basic bar code

scanning and image capture with the 2DSC. You can also

configure the decoder and image capture settings, and perform

image transfers. Refer to the separate User’s Guide for the

2DSC Demo for instructions. Windows Mobile only.
