ODV-2D Usage
Overview
The online data verifier/validator for one and two-dimensional barcodes (ODV-2D) is a fully integrated bar
code camera scanning device mounted to the printer above the paper exit. When activated, it records the
image of the printed output looking for bar codes in any right-angle orientation (0°, 90°, 180°, 270°). When
it finds a bar code, it determines what type of bar code, confirms the data encoded, and provides the ISO
grading, performing both functions of validation and verification.
As the label passes under the camera, the ODV-2D grades the bar code, confirms the data printed
matches the data sent and sends a report to the printer. The printer response is determined by the
ODV-2D settings, explained in "Configuring the ODV-2D".
Capability Highlights
The ODV-2D system is a camera-based system with LEDs that flash at a given frequency to illuminate the
surface of the label as it exits the printer. A sensor is used to record slices of the image as the output
moves past the lens and then stitches them together for analysis. Thus, the entire image is recorded by the
ODV-2D for analysis which allows verification of 1-D barcodes in ladder and picket fence orientations and
2-D barcode grading.
The summary of capabilities are as follows:
The ODV-2D is supported on the T8000 4" models (T8204 and T8304).
•
•
The ODV-2D supports all orientations of barcodes (0°, 90°, 180°, 270° degrees).
The ODV-2D supports full ISO-based grading for PDF417, DataMatrix, and QR symbologies.
•
Barcodes printed as graphics (Win Drivers, WYSIWIG label programs) do not require additional setup.
•
The printer will dynamically inspect and identify all properly scaled graphic barcodes.
The ODV-2D firmware can be downloaded via the printer or via ODV-2D ethernet webpage.
•
The ODV-2D has an Ethernet port (hidden by cover plate) for access to an onboard webpage that
