l
ULQRTR (Transition ratio for Upper Left Quadrant Right Clock Track)
: Only for 2 and 4 quadrant symbols, this
is the grade based on the clock track segment to the right of the upper left quadrant. For a 2 quadrant symbol, this
is labeled LQRTR
l
URQRTR (Transition ratio for Upper Right Quadrant Right Clock Track)
: Only for 2 and 4 quadrant
symbols, this is the grade based on the clock track segment to the right of the upper right quadrant. For 2
quadrant symbols, this is labeled RQRTR.
l
LLQRTR (Transition ratio for Lower Left Quadrant Right Clock Track)
: Only for 4 quadrant symbols, this
is the grade based on the clock track segment to the right of the lower left quadrant.
l
LRQRTR (Transition ratio for Lower Right Quadrant Right Clock Track)
: Only for 4 quadrant symbols,
this is the grade based on the clock track segment to the right of the lower right quadrant.
l
TCT (Top Clock Track)
is a grade based on imperfections in the top clock track. Some imperfections in the clock
track can be tolerated. As a rule maintaining for a passing grade is that three out of every five modules on a
consecutively rolling window of five modules must be correct. The value of the grade is the highest modulation
level for which this test passes.
l
ULQTCT (Top Clock Track for Upper Left Quadrant)
: Only for 2 and 4 quadrant symbols, this is the
grade based on the clock track segment at the top of the upper left quadrant. For 2 quadrant symbols this
is labeled LQTCT.
l
URQTCT (Top Clock Track for Upper Right Quadrant)
: Only for 2 and 4 quadrant symbols, this is the
grade based on the clock track segment at the top of the upper right quadrant. For 2 quadrant symbols this
is labeled RQTCT.
l
LLQTCT (Top Clock Track for Lower Left Quadrant)
: Only for 4 quadrant symbols, this is the grade
based on the clock track segment at the top of the lower left quadrant.
l
LRQTCT (Top Clock Track for Lower Right Quadrant)
: Only for 4 quadrant symbols, this is the grade
based on the clock track segment at the top of the lower right quadrant.
l
RCT (Right Clock Track)
is a grade based on imperfection in the right clock track. See Top Clock Track.
l
ULQRCT (Right Clock Track for Upper Left Quadrant)
: Only for 2 and 4 quadrant symbols, this is the
grade based on the clock track segment to the right of the upper left quadrant. For 2 quadrant symbols,
this is labeled LQRCT.
l
URQRCT (Right Clock Track for Upper Right Quadrant)
: Only for 2 and 4 quadrant symbols, this is the
grade based on the clock track segment to the right of the upper right quadrant. For 2 quadrant symbols,
this is labeled RQRCT.
l
LLQRCT (Right Clock Track for Lower Left Quadrant)
: Only for 4 quadrant symbols, this is the grade
based on the clock track segment to the right of the lower left quadrant.
l
LRQRCT (Right Clock Track for Lower Right Quadrant)
: Only for 4 quadrant symbols, this is the grade
based on the clock track segment to the right of the lower right quadrant.
