Bar|Scan Technical Support
The
Bar|Scan Asset Management System is a very comprehensive program, which often
generates many questions about bar code hardware, software and the selections
of barcoding modules that Bar|Scan has to offer. In order to utilize Bar|Scan
to its full capacity, we offer technical support services to our customers. You
can use this page to locate the assistance you may need quickly. If you do not
have a current support contract, you will be
billed for
technical support. If your current period of support has expired, you can
obtain additional support by contacting our Sales Department at 805-777-0079.
Annual Support Includes Standard
Program Upgrades
We send out upgrade CDs to all customers on annual
support on a regular basis not less than once per year. Upgrades incorporate
new features garnered through feedback from our customers. They are also
necessary to incorporate changes to remain compliant with new operating systems
and new bar code readers. An unscheduled upgrade CD may also be sent to a
customer to resolve a problem that the customer has identified. UPS domestic
ground shipment costs are included as part of our support. Priority shipping
and international shipping costs are not included.
