About the LVS-9580/9585

The LVS-9580/9585 is a portable, handheld barcode verifier designed for off-line verification of barcodes to
ISO/IEC standards. The LVS-9580/9585 is a 5.0 megapixel camera-based system that grades linear (1D)
and two-dimensional (2D) codes up to 3 inches (76 mm) wide and up to 2 inches (51 mm) tall (including the
quiet zone). See the “Quiet Zone” section below for more information on quiet zones.

The LVS-9580/9585 verifies barcode labels located on a variety of surfaces including corrugated cardboard
boxes, shipping containers, and on a static (non-moving) web. The LVS-9580/9585 grades barco des in
either picket fence or ladder orientation.

Picket Fence Orientation

Ladder Orientation

The LVS-9580/9585 is 21 CFR Part 11 Compliant-Ready.

Quiet Zone

The quiet zone is a clear space preceding the start character of a barcode symbol and follows the stop
character. When reading/grading a barcode symbol, adequate space for the quiet zone must be allowed.
The required quiet zone space for each barcode varies by symbology. An error message appears on the
computer screen if not enough space has been allowed for the quiet zone.

Hardware Overview

The LVS-9580/9585 is comprised of the following hardware components:

LVS-9580/9585 with USB cable
and software installation flash drive.

Note: The image below shows the device approaching the
symbol to be verified. The four rubber feet at the corners of
the verifier window must be placed on the surface where the
symbol is printed or marked.

The position of the device shown at left more closely
approximates the orientation required in an application setting.

Important: The label shown above is 4” x 4”. The long
linear symbol on the label would not fit in the field of
view without using the Stitching Feature described in
the LVS-95XX Series Operations Manual.

Note: When using only the LVS-9580/9585 (with no other LVS -95XX barcode ve rifier, such as the LVS-

9510), “9580/9585” will be the only camera listed in the “Camera” section. When using the LVS­9580/9585 with the LVS-9510 (5 MP), both cameras appear in the “Camera” sect ion. Select
“9580/9585.”
