Symbologies
I/O synchronization
Protect the M1000 from dust and humidity and make
sure your operating environment is suitable (see the
Technical characteristics section)
High-density bar codes require a shorter reading
distance than low-density bar codes. Reading distance is
less critical for medium density bar codes (see the
Reading distance section)
Test the setup before you install the M1000 permanently
•
Use standard symbologies best suited to your
application—some symbologies (Interleaved 2 of 5
for example) are less reliable than others
•
Use as few symbologies as possible
•
Fixed barcode lengths and check digits increase
reading efficiency and security
•
An external input synchronization device can be
used to activate the M1000
•
The M1000 can send a synchronization output to
control external devices according to the read result
