Chapter 2. General Usage
Opticon Inbox is a messaging tool that enables you to send location-stamped emails containing certain
kinds of data – namely barcodes and signatures - that the handset is designed to capture. Below is a
picture of the main form, your starting point in creating a message.

From this screen, you can choose what email addresses to send to, input a subject and a note (email
body), location-stamp your message, collect and attach barcodes, and collect and attach a signature.

latter case, you will see the email in the Outbox folder of your email account.

2.2 Adding Recipients to Your Message
To add one or more email addresses to the To and/or CC fields, tap the Add link to the right of the To or
CC label. You will be presented with a dialog box where you can manually enter the address via the
virtual keyboard or keypad, or choose an existing address defined in your handset’s Contacts list. To
open the Address Book, tap the “Address Book” link in the dialog box.
Note
Use ‘;’ (semicolon) or ‘,’ (comma) to separate email addresses.

2.3 Address Book
You can use the Opticon Inbox address book to add an email address to the message. These addresses
are pulled from the handset’s Contacts list; however, contacts’ first name, last name, and email address
5

can be added, modified, or removed from the address book. The contacts are sorted alphabetically by
first name.

To add a new contact, tap the menu option in the bottom right labeled “New Contact”. Fill in the
information for the new contact and tap “Add”.

The added contact appears in the list. Use the horizontal scroll bar on the contact list box to see all of the
contact information.

tap the “Insert Contact” button to add their email address to the message.
Contacts can be removed by checking the check box and tapping, “Remove” on the bottom left corner of
the screen.

2.4 Location-Stamping Your Message
Opticon Inbox possesses the ability to record a GPS coordinate (and optionally map it to an address) and
location-stamp your message with it. This is done via the link to the right of the Location label.

7

Opticon Inbox 1.0

User Manual

There are 4 different states the location link may be in. When a GPS fix has not been established, it will
notify you that it is searching for a GPS fix. If it has taken more than 4 minutes to find a fix, it will change
the link text to “Trouble Finding Signal”. Note: buildings can cause trouble establishing a fix, so try going
outside. Once a fix is established, the link text will continually update with a latitude and longitude. When
you tap the link a dialog box will be displayed. In this dialog box, you will have an option to save an
address, which will stop updating the latitude and longitude and will display the saved address.

2.5 Location Dialog Box
If a GPS fix had been established before opening the dialog box and there is a valid Internet connection,
the device will perform an address lookup given your current GPS coordinate. Otherwise you will get a
message letting you know that there were difficulties finding an address or that a connection has not been
established.

There are 3 buttons in this box. Clear will clear any saved information about your location and take you
back to the main form to start a new location search. Cancel will return you to the main screen without
saving any changes. Finally, OK will save any changes you have made and will lock the coordinates from
being updated.

User Manual

The address box is the only item on this screen that is editable.

Chapter 3. Scanning Barcodes
Opticon Inbox allows the user to scan barcodes and save the data in a comma delimited CSV file
(barcodes.csv), which can be sent to a host PC directly via ActiveSync (see section below), or attached to
your message.
Barcode scanning can be done in two modes: Fast Scan & Normal Scan.

9

Opticon Inbox 1.0

User Manual

3.1 Fast Scan Mode
In Fast Scan mode, scanned barcodes are saved automatically to barcodes.csv without user intervention.
This mode is ideal for situations where the user just wants to scan and save barcodes (e.g. inventory
taking).
The user can optionally display a description for each barcode scanned. See the Using Preferences
section in this manual.

3.2 Normal Scan Mode
Normal Scan mode allows the user to add additional fields of data to save along with the barcode. These
fields are referred to as custom fields, which can be enabled in the barcode preferences. Up to 5 custom
fields can be used with each barcode. Each custom field must be given a descriptive short name (e.g.
QTY), which will be used to represent data for that field. When custom fields are used, the user must
enter values for each custom field and then click the Save button to save the record into the barcodes.csv
file.
To scan a barcode, press the “SCAN” button located on the side of the device. There is a scan button on
each side of the device. In Fast Scan mode, the barcode will be automatically displayed in the grid along
with date & time stamp. In Normal Scan mode, the user must enter values for the custom fields and then
click the green Save button located at the bottom left of the screen. A barcode count keeps track of the
number of barcodes scanned. When you’re done scanning, click the “Done” button located at the bottom
right corner of the screen. You may resume scanning at anytime.

3.3 Searching for Barcodes
To search for a barcode in the grid, click the “Search Mode” button. The button color turns green and the
button caption changes to “End Search” indicating that search mode is active. In this mode you can
search for a scanned barcode in the grid. You will get a message indicating whether the barcode is found
in the grid or not. Scanned barcodes are not saved while in search mode. Be sure to click the “End
Search” button to go back to Fast Scan or Normal Scan mode.

3.4 Deleting Barcodes
You can delete selected barcodes or the entire list. To delete
selected barcodes, click the box next of each barcode you want to
delete, then click “Delete Items” from the Menu at the bottom left.
This deletes the barcode from the grid and the file.

10

Opticon Inbox 1.0

User Manual

To delete the entire barcode collection, click “Menu” at the bottom left of the screen then click “Delete All
Data”, a confirmation message is displayed. Click OK to delete all barcodes or Cancel to go back. You
can also click “Select All” from the menu then click “Delete Items”.
Please exercise caution when using this option, as it will delete all scanned barcodes with no way to
recover them. The CSV file will be deleted as well. This should only be used after the data has been
successfully sent to a host PC.

3.5 Data Mapper Usage
Data mapping allows you to map a barcode to a text description that is automatically added when the
barcode is scanned. Look in the Preferences section to for setup information.
Once the data mapper is set up, it will automatically search the selected file for any barcode that is
scanned. If the description is found, it will add it to the description field of the barcode.
If an error occurs while searching for a description, a message box will pop up letting you know that an
error occurred. It will also turn off the data mapping functionality until the barcode collection form is
closed. This is to prevent an error from popping up after each scan.

3.6 Transferring Barcodes.csv File Via ActiveSync
To transfer barcodes directly via ActiveSync, first plug your device in to a host PC. You should get a
notification that a connection has been established via ActiveSync. If no notification appears, try
unplugging the mini-usb cable from your device and then plug it back in. After a connection has been
established, open the My Computer folder on your PC. There should be a folder here for your mobile
device. Open that folder and then the My Windows Mobile-Based Device folder. From there, open the
Program Files folder and then the Inbox folder. Inside of there, there should be a Data folder, inside the
Data folder is the barcodes.csv file. Drag that file to your desktop to transfer it from the device to your PC.

Chapter 4. Signature Capture
Opticon Inbox also possesses the ability to capture a signature and attach it to your message as a Bitmap
(.bmp) file.

4.1 Create a New Signature

Chapter 5. Using Preferences
Preferences allow you to configure various features of Opticon Inbox to fit your needs. To access
Preferences, from the main screen tap Menu, then tap the Preferences menu item. There are 4 tabs in the
Preferences screen.

2. Data Mapping – allows you to configure the automatic barcode description lookup.
3. Message – allows you to input a default subject and message body for all of your messages.
4. Email Account – allows you to select an email account along with recipients for your messages.

5.1 Barcode Scanning Preferences
You can define up to 5 additional, custom fields of data to save along with the barcode.
To use a custom field, click the checkbox next to the field and enter a short descriptive name for the field
in the corresponding box. The name you enter will become the field’s name in the grid and the CSV file as
well as on the barcode scanning screen. Click “Save” when finished.
When scanning barcodes while custom fields are enabled, you must enter values for all custom fields then
click the “Save” button to save the barcode along with its custom fields. The “Save” button is visible only
when custom fields are used.

Note: To maintain data integrity, the barcode tab is disabled after using custom fields. To reenable the barcode tab and make changes to the custom fields, you must first either delete all
attached barcodes or send the current message. In other words, if you use custom fields, you
cannot make changes to custom fields while the barcodes.csv file is present. You must upload the
original data before making new changes to custom fields.

5.2 Data Mapping Setup
Data mapping allows you to map a barcode to a text description. This text description will then appear in
15

Opticon Inbox 1.0

User Manual

the barcode collection screen’s description field, and be saved along with the barcode. The mappings are
usually stored in a file on the handset’s file system.
The data mapper can accept 3 different types of files: Comma Separated Value (CSV), XML, or SQL
Database File (SDF). CSV files and XML files need to be formatted in a specific fashion.
CSV files must have the format barcode,description(newline). An example would be,
123456,Item1
234567,Item2
987654,Item3
…
XML files must have a root tag  and each entry should be in a  tag with a barcode
attribute. An example is,

Item1
Item2
Item3
SDF files can be set up multiple different ways. There are custom fields available to suit an existing table
or you may want to create a new table with the default fields.
The actual lookup query looks like this,
SELECT (Description Col.) FROM (Table Name) WHERE ((Barcode Col.) = ‘(actual barcode scanned)’)
You may leave the custom table options blank in which case the default values are used for any option left
blank. The defaults are:
Table Name: DataMapping
Barcode Col.: barcodes
Description Col.: descriptions

5.3 Data Mapping Preferences
Select the connection (file) type that contains the description. The files supported are CSV, XML and
SQLCE.
After you select the file type, you need to tell Opticon Inbox where the file is located. Click the “Search”
button and browse to the file. Click “Save” to save the settings.

User Manual

5.4 Message Preferences
Message preferences allow you select a default subject and message body (signature) for your
messages. This is useful for when you want to send the message with a common subject/body stub to aid
in processing on a recipient system. You can also select if the signature is placed on top (Header) or at
the bottom (Footer).

5.5 Email Account Preferences
Email Account Preferences allow you to set a default account to be used to send the message.
ActiveSync allows you to send the message to your PC via ActiveSync; when the email syncs between
the handset and the PC, the message can then be sent via your email account (e.g. MS Outlook). You
can alternatively select an email account directly from your handset if you have one set up.
You can also select default recipients saving you the time of having to enter their email addresses with
each message.

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.
a) Confidentiality. Opticon and you agree that, in the course of dealings between the
parties, each party may acquire information or materials about the other party, its business
activities and operations, its technical information and trade secrets, which are of a
confidential or proprietary nature (“Confidential Information”). Without limitation,
information will be treated as Confidential Information (i) if it is marked or accompanied by
documents clearly and conspicuously designating them as “confidential” or the equivalent;
or before, during or promptly after the presentation of communication. Upon request by
you, Opticon shall advise you whether or not it considers any particular information or
materials to be Confidential Information. “Confidential Information“ does not include any
information which: (i) was known to the receiving party before receipt from the disclosing
party; (ii) is or becomes publicly available through no fault, act or omission of the receiving
party; (iii) is rightfully received by the receiving party from a third party without a duty of
confidentiality; (iv) is disclosed by the disclosing party to a third party without a duty of
confidentiality on the third party; or (v) is independently developed by the receiving party.
b) No Use or Disclosure. Each Party shall not disclose the others party’s Confidential
Information to third parties, and shall not use Confidential Information except to exercise
its rights and fulfill its duties under this Agreement. In addition, each party shall use the
same degree of care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, as the party uses with

respect to its own similar information to protect the information and to prevent
unauthorized use or disclosure. Without limiting the foregoing, neither party shall disclose
Confidential Information of the other party to its employees who do not have a need to
know that information. If a receiving party is required by a government body or court of
law to disclose information, the receiving party agrees to give the disclosing party
reasonable advance notice so that the disclosing party may contest the disclosure or seek
a protective order. Each party agrees to use reasonable efforts to return to the other
party, or to destroy (and to certify the destruction in writing to the other party), all materials
containing any Confidential Information of the other party upon the request of the
disclosing party. Confidential Information received under this Section need only be
protected per this Section for five (5) years from first receipt thereof.

other obligations that survive termination.

unreasonably withhold, condition or delay except that Opticon may assign this Agreement,
or any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, to any person or entity which
succeeds to its business to which this Agreement relates and which assumes all of its
obligations hereunder in writing. Opticon shall, to the extent it is able, provide notice of
