Formulas for Number of Decodes
MS-820 Industrial Bar Code Scanner User’s Manual A-29
Appendices
Label Speed
Applies to both picket fence and ladder oriented labels. If your application allows it,
slowing label speed (the time in seconds that a label is fully within the scan width of
the scanner) is an effective way to increase the number of decodes.
Label Dimensions, Label Density, and Label Ratio
Not usually an option in most applications, but changes to label parameters can affect
number of decodes calculations and possibly decode rates.
If your application allows it, shortening the length of a picket fence label means the
label will be in the scan range longer and hence receive a greater number of scans.
Increasing the height of a ladder label means it will receive more scans. Changing
label density and/or bar code ratio is another way ranges, decode rates, etc. can be
altered.
Gain and Tracking
These adjustments, typically made by qualified technicians, are referenced in the
Scanner Setup menu (see “Save Active Settings including Factory for Power-on” on
page A-22). Changes to tracking will generally have a limited affect on decode rates.
