2.5 POSITIONING
The DS8100 scanner is able to decode barcode labels at a variety of angles, however
significant angular distortion may degrade reading performance.
When mounting the DS8100 take into consideration these three ideal label position
angles:
Pitch 0°, Skew 0° to 45° and Tilt 0°
.
Follow the suggestions for the best orientation:
The
Pitch
angle is represented by the value
P
in Figure 28. Position the reader in
order to minimize the Pitch angle.
Figure 28 - "Pitch" angle
The
Skew
angle is represented by the value
S
in Figure 29.

The
Tilt
angle is represented by the value
T
in Figure 30. For code reconstruction,
