Figure 7.1
"Step-Ladder" scanning mode
For example, the VB14-440 (800 scans/sec.) for a 25 mm high code moving at 1250
mm/s performs:
[(25/1250)
∗
800] - 2 = 14 effective scans
7.2.2
Picket-Fence mode
If scanning is parallel to the code motion, (figure 7.2 - "picket-fence" mode), the
number of effective scans is given by the following formula:
SN = [((FW-LW)/LS)
∗
SS] - 2
Where:
SN = number of effective scans
FW = reading field width (in mm)
LW = label width (in mm)
LS = label movement speed (in mm/s)
SS = scans per second
