3.1.1 Tilt Angle for Advanced Code Reconstruction
The most important parameter in Advanced Code Reconstruction is the value of the
maximum tilt angle (
α maximum) under which the code reconstruction process is still
possible.
We define the Tilt angle as the angle (
α) between the laser beam and a line parallel
to the barcode label, as shown in Figure 29.

0° to α max

The formulas to calculate
α maximum depend on various parameters such as: label
height, number of scans per second, code motion speed, etc. To obtain α maximum
for your application, please contact your Datalogic representative.
You must remember that the decoder will be able to read the label with a tilt angle
between +
α max and - α max as shown in Figure 30 (the shaded zones are the NO
READ zones).
