Dimensioning Flow

The MD Client demonstrates typical dimensioning flows.

Successful Dimension In Range

In this scenario, dimensioning is successful while the parcel is in range.
  1. Dimension values are all zeros. The user selects
    Start Dimensioning
     and the Viewfinder becomes active.
  2. The user successfully captures the parcel in the Viewfinder. Dimensions and indicators display on the screen.
  3. The user selects
    Confirm
    . Dimensions, indicators, and control return to the calling app.
  4. The user selects the Refresh button to set the dimension values back to all zeros.

Successful Dimension Out of Range

In this scenario, dimensioning is successful while the parcel dimension is out of range. The parcel is out of range when the captured dimensions are either below the minimum specification or above the maximum specification.
  1. Dimension values are all zeros. The user selects the
    Start Dimensioning
     button and the Viewfinder becomes active.
  2. Dimensions are captured. Dimensions and indicators return to the calling app indicating that one or more measurements are out of range.
  3. The user presses Retry to try again or selects the Confirm button to continue.
  4. After measurements are confirmed, control returns to the calling app.
  5. The user selects the Refresh button to return to the Welcome screen and set dimension values back to all zeros.
