About Document Imaging
Intermec Enhanced Mobile Document Imaging (eMDI) is an image
capture application that enables users to capture document images
while in the field. This applications is only supported on the CN50
with the EA21 imager. Using the CN50, eMDI allows you to convert
paper documents into document images that are saved on your
mobile computer.
eMDI streamlines back-office operation and reduces data entry time
because document images can be transmitted from the field to
backoffice applications over wireless networks. With this, customer
service and other staff gain real-time access to document images, via
their enterprise systems, which can be used to answer customer
queries, issue invoices, and update records.
You can download a full version of eMDI from the CN50 page on the
Intermec website at www.intermec.com. The eMDI application will
place an “Intermec Demo” watermark on the captured documents
until you purchase the eMDI Client Software License
(P/N 454-025-001). For more information, contact your local Intermec
representative. For more information on eMDI, see the Intermec
Enhanced Mobile Document Imaging User’s Guide.
About Bar Codes
The CN50 ships with an internal imager to read and enter bar code
data. By default, these bar code symbologies are enabled on the CN50:
• Code 39
• Code 128/GS1-128
• DataMatrix
• EAN/UPC
• PDF417
If you are using bar code labels that are encoded in a different
symbology, you need to enable the symbology on the CN50. To easily
enable or disable symbologies, read one of the bar codes in the table
called “Symbology Bar Codes” on page 129.
You can use EasySet to create configuration bar codes specific to your
system. You can download a free copy of EasySet from the CN50 page
on the Intermec website at www.intermec.com.
