The guide includes visual instructions, workflows, and explanations for all major modules such as sheet design, printing, scanning, evaluation, and reporting.
The user guide covers all essential operations of the system:
OMR sheet design and template creation
Printing guidelines and setup
Scanning and image preparation rules
Answer key configuration
Test definition and evaluation process
Result generation and reporting
Error handling and troubleshooting
Advanced system settings and preferences
It is structured to help users operate the software without technical difficulty.
The guide explains how to create OMR sheets using the built-in designer module:
Key Steps:
Create new test layout
Define question blocks and sections
Set bubble patterns (OMR fields)
Add OCR, ICR, barcode fields if needed
Adjust layout alignment using grid system
The software allows users to design sheets in approximately 10 minutes using drag-and-drop tools and predefined templates.
The user guide explains printing requirements:
Use standard laser/inkjet printers
Print on normal A4 paper (no special OMR paper required)
Ensure correct DPI and alignment
Maintain proper margin settings
Print barcode or OCR fields if used
Correct printing ensures accurate scanning and evaluation.
Scanning is a critical step in OMR processing:
Recommended Settings:
Scan as image (JPG/TIFF/BMP)
Avoid PDF or document mode
Use 100–200 DPI depending on content
Greyscale or color mode for OCR/ICR sheets
The system can read skewed or rotated sheets using auto-alignment technology.
The user guide explains how to configure exam structure:
Create test ID
Define subjects/sections
Set marking scheme (positive/negative marking)
Upload answer keys
Configure scoring rules
This ensures accurate evaluation of MCQ-based tests.
The reading process includes:
Selecting scanned images folder
Choosing test ID
Running AUTO / ALERT / MANUAL modes
Reviewing flagged sheets
Calculating final results
The system can process up to 10,000 sheets per hour in optimized mode.
After scanning, the system generates:
Mark lists
Rank lists
Subject-wise analysis
Question-wise response reports
Graphical performance reports
Reports can be exported in Excel, CSV, XML, and database formats.
The guide includes configuration options:
Response threshold settings (sensitivity control)
Skew correction settings
Continuous reading mode
Index point detection settings
Database and backup configuration
These settings help optimize performance and accuracy.
Installation Steps:
Install setup file in C:\ADDMEN directory
