Using the
Evaluate option Use the Evaluate option when you want to measure the quality of the bar
codes being used by evaluating specific bar code characteristics.
The Evaluate option allows you to perform a Static Bar Code Evaluation
test or a Dynamic Bar Code Evaluation test.
•
Static Bar Code Evaluation — is performed if you want to just verify
how well the Bar Code Reader is working. This test is performed with
the transport off.
•
Dynamic Bar Code Evaluation — is performed if you want to verify
how well the Bar Code Reader is working and the speed of the Bar
Code Reader. This test is performed with the transport on. Unlike the
Static Bar Code Evaluation, the results of this test can be influenced
by the motion of the document. If less than satisfactory results are
obtained, perform the evaluation again using the Static Bar Code
Evaluation.
To use the Evaluate option:
1. Select 1=EVALUATE.
Bar Code Type =
1=EVALUATE 2=DISPLAY 3=%KODAK 4=%NORM
2. Select either 1=Transport Off or 2=Transport On.
1=Transport Off 2=Transport On
If you select 1=Transport Off, proceed to the next section entitled,
“Static bar code evaluation”. If you select 2=Transport On, proceed
to the section entitled, “Dynamic bar code evaluation”.
Static bar code
evaluation Static Bar Code Evaluation allows you to verify how well your Bar Code
Reader is working. This test is performed with the transport off. Follow
the procedures below to perform the Static Bar Code Evaluation test.
