    READING FEATURES 6.4 MAXIMUM LINE SPEED CALCULATION The Exposure Time (or Shutter) parameter defines the time during which the image will be exposed to the reader sensor to be acquired. This parameter depends heavily on the environmental conditions (external lighting, image contrast etc.). In general, a longer time corresponds to a lighter image but is susceptible to blurring due to the code movement;...
  • Page 104 MATRIX 210N™ REFERENCE MANUAL The maximum target speed in the application is also affected by these conditions:  Code/Background Contrast: maximum speed decreases when decreasing image contrast (poor quality codes, reflective transparent coverings, different supports and printing techniques).  Code Resolution: maximum speed increases when decreasing code resolution (there is a decrement of overlapping effects between two adjacent elements).

  • Page 110: Multi Image Acquisition Settings

    MATRIX 210N™ REFERENCE MANUAL 7.2.3 Multi Image Acquisition Settings When controlled variable conditions occur in the application, Multiple Image Acquisition Settings can be defined to create a database of parameter groups that handle each specific application condition. This database of pre-defined settings improves system flexibility and readiness by being applied either automatically or selectively by an activation event.
  • Page 111 SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION Automatic Image Settings Selection If we don’t know from one item to the next which reading condition will be presented, we will cycle through the pre-defined database of Image Settings (one per acquisition) in order to automatically capture the correctly lighted image over the course of several acquisitions. When the correct condition is matched, the result should be able to produce a Good Read.
  • Page 112 MATRIX 210N™ REFERENCE MANUAL External Image Settings Selection There are some applications where the lighting conditions are known before each item is read and therefore we can pre-select the correct Image Setting from an external source. When the Image Settings Selection is External, Acquisition Sequences are created and by default each Image Setting has its own Acquisition Sequence.
  • Page 113 SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION Alternatively a hybrid configuration can be made where more than one Image Setting can be grouped into an Acquisition Sequence by dragging it into the desired Sequence box. Select the empty Sequence box and delete it with the delete key. Each Acquisition Sequence can be activated exclusively by a single event, either through a string from an available communication channel or by a digital input.

    Image cropping is performed from the Image Setup tab by clicking on the Add Cropping Region icon as shown below. In Matrix 210N the frame rate is dependent on the number of rows and columns in the defined window. Image cropping allows reducing the Image processing area from the full FoV to a smaller area where codes are present.
