    The filtered signal is digitized into a Digitized Barcode Pattern (DBP). Timing information is analyzed by the decoder micro-controller to decode and transmit the data contained in the bar code. Data transmission is carried out using Symbol's proprietary SSI Interface.

  • Page 21: Scanning Pattern

    Introduction Interface Board - The interface board converts TTL level SSI signals to proper RS-232 levels for connection to any RS-232 compliant host. It also contains a red/green LED for visual feedback, and provides for an external trigger and external beeper. DB9 - The DB9 connector provides various interface signals used between a MiniScan scanner and the host.

    The MiniScan can be mounted to read symbols that are automatically presented, or that are presented in a pre-determined location. In these applications, MinScan positioning with respect to the symbol is critical. Failure to properly position the MiniScan can result in unsatisfactory scanning performance. A thermal analysis is also recommended.
