User/Location Settings - External Devices

The Ext. Devices (External Devices) tab is used for optional 3rd party data collectors that can be tied to IndySoft. This dialog references three types of external devices supported by IndySoft. One is a Data Logger for temperature/relative humidity. It can automatically log temperature and relative humidity during an event. The other device is an RF Tag made by Balluff. It allows you to read/write gage data to small tags embedded in equipment. The 3rd device is a standard barcode reader. For further information on these interfaces, contact IndySoft for more details.

Use WIA drivers when scanning documents

By default, all documents are scanned using TWAIN. Checking this option will instead opt for the Windows WIA drivers. Note: Currently, only WIA 1.0 support is offered. If you use a WIA 2.0 driver, check the option for "Use WIA 1.0 Emulation" if available. WIA 2.0 will only import the 1st page of a multi-page document. |
