20.0 APPENDIX D BAR CODE SCANNER SETUP
The Synergy Controller features a powerful macro capability and supports a variety of bar code scanners
that together can automate complex setups for organizations working to error proof their processes.
The value of the ubiquitous “Bar Code Scanner” for speeding data entry and improving accuracy is obvious
to anyone that shops at a grocery store. Synergy Controller offers the advantages of bar code scanning to
engineers, operators, and managers using test chambers and process ovens. The Synergy Controller’s
powerful macro capability can automatically select and start an environmental test profile simply by scanning
the OCR (Optical Character Recognition) plain text label on the part. The Hand Held Products IT4800 OCR
Barcode Scanner is used in this application with OCR-A text; however, virtually any bar code reader can be
used.
20.1 Synergy Controller Macros
A macro is a list of Synergy communication commands in a user look-up table that the controller executes
when the macro code is typed on a keyboard or received from a barcode scanner. The full power of the
Synergy Controller macro capability is realized when a bar code scanner is used to trigger the macro.
