Appendix A Basic Concepts
This appendix provides the basic concepts associated with scanning
documents.
Modes
The scanner offers 18 modes that can be defined for a particular
application or group of applications.
When you select a mode for use with a particular application, you are
selecting the format/appearance of the output. Each mode is
comprised of definitions that affect the output of the scanner. Required
mode definitions include index format, level to follow level rules, etc.
Optional mode definitions include a variety of accessory options, such
as turning the Footswitch on or off, etc. Mode definitions are
established during installation.
Many optional mode definitions established during installation can be
overridden using function codes. The overrides are temporary, unless
during installation, it is specified that the mode overrides be saved.
After executing a function that overrides a prior definition, a plus sign
(+) appears in the first line of the status display if the mode overrides
are saved.
