1. Define your settings in the IRISPen application
Before you start using the IRISPen, you must tune the software.
Depending on the type of data you intend to read - text, barcodes,
dot matrix text, etc. - and in which language, you must select the
appropriate basic settings and if necessary, fine-tune these settings
via the frequent commands.
See: Basic settings and Frequent commands. Also refer to the

Choose the application in which you want to insert the read data:
open your target document, spreadsheet, database, etc. Place your
cursor at the position where you want to insert the data.
You can choose the way the data must be transferred in the active
application: either direct transfer or via the clipboard. See: Basic
settings, Target.
