Patent ID: 10189551

Abstract:
To display a multidimensional code representing unique information of an outboard motor, a display device ensures switchably displaying the multidimensional code representing identical information by a plurality of display patterns where ease of reading is mutually different. A multidimensional code creating unit converts the unique information of the outboard motor into the multidimensional code and creates the multidimensional codes by two patterns. That is, a first multidimensional code creating unit creates a multidimensional code for a display pattern that represents the unique information of the outboard motor by the predetermined count of N (one or plural) multidimensional codes. A second multidimensional code creating unit creates a multidimensional code for a display pattern that represents the unique information of the outboard motor by the multidimensional code by reducing an information volume represented by one multidimensional code and increasing the count of multidimensional codes more than the predetermined count N.
