S
Scan Area.
Area intended to contain a symbol.
Scanner.
An electronic device used to scan bar code symbols and produce a digitized pattern that corresponds to the
bars and spaces of the symbol. Its three main components are: 1) Light source (laser or photoelectric cell) -
illuminates a bar code,; 2) Photodetector - registers the difference in reflected light (more light reflected from
spaces); 3) Signal conditioning circuit - transforms optical detector output into a digitized bar pattern.
Scanning Mode.
The scanner is energized, programmed and ready to read a bar code.
Scanning Sequence.
A method of programming or configuring parameters for a bar code reading system by scanning
bar code menus.
SDK.
Software Development Kit
Self-Checking Code.
A symbology that uses a checking algorithm to detect encoding errors within the characters of a
bar code symbol.
Shared Key.
Shared Key authentication is an algorithm where both the AP and the MU share an authentication key.
SHIP.
Symbol Host Interface Program.
SID.
System Identification code. An identifier issued by the FCC for each market. It is also broadcast by the cellular
carriers to allow cellular devices to distinguish between the home and roaming service.
Soft Reset.
See
Warm Boot
.
Space.
The lighter element of a bar code formed by the background between bars.
Specular Reflection.
The mirror-like direct reflection of light from a surface, which can cause difficulty decoding a bar
code.
Standard Trigger Mode.
The digital scanner uses this mode when lifted off the counter or removed from the wall mount.
In this mode, aim the digital scanner at a bar code and pull the trigger to decode.
Start/Stop Character.
A pattern of bars and spaces that provides the scanner with start and stop reading instructions
and scanning direction. The start and stop characters are normally to the left and right margins of a horizontal code.
STEP.
Symbol Terminal Enabler Program.
Subnet.
A subset of nodes on a network that are serviced by the same router. See
Router
.
Subnet Mask.
A 32-bit number used to separate the network and host sections of an IP address. A custom subnet mask
subdivides an IP network into smaller subsections. The mask is a binary pattern that is matched up with the IP
address to turn part of the host ID address field into a field for subnets. Default is often 255.255.255.0.
Substrate.
A foundation material on which a substance or image is placed.
SVTP.
Symbol Virtual Terminal Program.
Symbol.
A scannable unit that encodes data within the conventions of a certain symbology, usually including start/stop
characters, quiet zones, data characters and check characters.
