Factory re-calibration
All verifiers need servicing every year to ensure that they measure barcode quality
in accordance with the relevant ISO/IEC standards. This verifier calibration and
alignment service (VCAS) ensures that the verifier is internally dust-free, checks
that it is focused correctly, and re-calibrates the hardware to account for any
change in the brightness of the LEDs used to illuminate the barcodes.
This factory re-calibration is not the same as user calibration, as it looks at the
output of the LEDs and corrects for any variance in their evenness of illumination
across the whole field of view. Over time the LEDs will fade but they will not
fade uniformly. User calibration ensures that the verifier is measuring the darkest
and brightest reflectances correctly but it cannot correct for any variance in the
illumination.
After your verifier has been serviced, we will return it you with the latest version
of the software on CD together with a new calibration sheet, and a new user guide
that will include the new certificate of ISO/IEC conformance. The latest software
can always be downloaded free of charge from our website, www.axicon.com.
