A–B3Chapter3–1Designing the SystemThis chapter provides information needed to set up the scanner correctly,including:• Bar code symbols• Symbol orient

Chapter 3Designing the System3–2There are two basic types of bar code symbols.One-dimensionalThe one-dimensional bar code symbols have one row of bars

Chapter 3Designing the System3–3Bar Code Symbol Length and HeightWhen measuring a symbol, orientation must be ignored. Its height ismeasured from one

Chapter 3Designing the System3–4Bar code symbols must be in the correct position as they move by thescanner. The scan line must cross every bar, space

Chapter 3Designing the System3–11Picket Fence ApplicationsTo calculate minimum scans per symbol, use this formula:R (W–L)CS = Scans per labelR=W= Scan

Chapter 3Designing the System3–12Step Ladder ApplicationsTo calculate scans per symbol for step ladder applications, use this formula:R x HCS = Scans

Chapter 3Designing the System3–13When a symbol is pitched, the bars appear to the scanner to be narrower andcloser together than if it faced the scann
