Introduction

7. Bar code label

• The height of the bar code should be more than the luster scan width (max. 10 mm)
and use a label considering attaching error.

• When reading bar code, margin is necessary on the both sides of the bar code. Set
the label so that margin parts do not hide. A space of one character or more and 2.5
mm or more is necessary of both right and left side of the label. (Rough standard: 12
or 13 times or more of the narrow bar width)

Reading starts by applying reading trigger
from outside.
This system is mainly used when operation.

When the external trigger signal is turned
on, laser radiates and starts reading. The
"Trigger controlled system" reads during
the trigger is ON, and the "Effective
duration designation system" reads only the
effective duration (*1) which is set
beforehand after the trigger is ON.

The upper equipment sends the
communication command and the laser
beam radiates to start reading. After
receiving the command, it reads only for the
effective duration (*1) which is set
beforehand.

Press the SCAN button once to read once.
Handy to use to check if the reading
condition setting is appropriate.

When the reading succeeds, the data is
output and ends reading automatically.

Reads bar codes continuously during the
trigger is ON or effective duration (*1).
When the first reading is completed, data is
once output and while reading the same
bar codes continuously, no output is made.
Outputs newly only when the data differ
from the adjacent bar code.

Reads bar codes continuously during the
trigger is ON or effective duration (*1).
Outputs data continuously even for the
same bar code.

During the power is turned on, laser is
radiated all the time, to be able to read
any time. This system is mainly used at
installation and system testing.

Frames
A frame is another representation of time (ms). Intervals between frames are not constant and they
differ depending on codes. When the frame is set to infinity, the next code must differ from the
previous one as long as a trigger is input.

Setting for the number of reading digits

When the number of reading digits is fixed, all codes having other lengths than that
specified can be rejected. Up to two reading digits can be set.
This setting is effective for codes such as Interleaved 2 of 5 for which security against
partial reading is insufficient.
While the number of reading digits to be fixed can be set by reading the code, the
number of reading digits cannot be set with a command since a code of the necessary
length must be read.

• To read codes of a known length, it is recommended that the number of digits be fixed.

• While the number of reading digits to be fixed can be set by reading the code, it is not affected by a
detail setting (p.64) for reading codes, including “Transfer ST/SP”, “Not transfer ST/SP”, “Transfer C/
D” and “Not transfer C/D”.

• Fixing the number of reading digits does not affect WPC (JAN/EAN/UPC) or other fixed-length codes.

E.g.: The following describes the steps for fixing the number of reading digits.

Setting start (ZZ)
