Error Text
Links the above defined Error Text 1 to 5 to the sample SOP fields in the
Operator module
Field Reset
"Checked": The field content is reset after each measurement
"Unchecked": The field content is not reset after each measurement
Remark: If field reset is set to yes, a keybord or barcode input is mandatory
for every sample measurement.
Validation Range
A lot of constraints for input verification can be set, e.g. batch numbers
shall be nine digit numbers. For test purposes the validity of an input can be
tested in place (green = valid, red = invalid input)
Values: Numeric or alphanumeric
Start reading at
barcode position
These two column values trigger the partitioning of a long barcode into
several fields during a single barcode reading.
The default values 0; 0 mean: each barcode entry will be completely filled
in the respective field
Values: Numeric (Integer)
Length of barcode field

Introduction
NIRWare is designed to support bar code readers. Bar code readers can be used to replace manual input
of measurement relevant data, and thus avoid human error.
Bar code readers are typically connected to the PC via USB, and feed the bar code into the keyboard
buffer.
Direct bar code input
The simplest way of using a bar code reader is to directly enter a bar code string into an input field of the
software. No configuration at all needs to be done for this type of use, but it .
is only applicable if there is exactly one complete bar code available for each corresponding input field.
Example: If this bar code
is presented to the scanner, this is what is read as input: “810295001169”.
