7.3 MAXIMUM LINE SPEED AND EXPOSURE TIME CALCULATIONS
The
Exposure Time
(or
Shutter
) parameter defines the time during which the image will be
exposed to the reader sensor to be acquired. This parameter depends heavily on the
environmental conditions (external lighting system, image contrast etc.).
In general, a longer time corresponds to a lighter image but is susceptible to blurring due to
the code movement; a shorter exposure time corresponds to a darker image.
NOTE
The following considerations must be applied only when the LT-03x lighting
system and
2D codes
are used. The Maximum line speed allowed for linear
codes or postal code reading applications heavily depends on the direction
of symbol movement. When the direction of movement is parallel to the
elements of the code, the maximum speed is greater.
Assuming:
X
: Code Resolution (mm)
T
exp
: Exposure Time (s)
LS
: Line Speed (mm/s)
The essential condition to avoid blurring effects between two adjacent elements in a dynamic
reading application is:
LS
T
exp
X
The maximum (theoretical) line speed
LS
can be calculated as follows:
X / T
exp (max)
= LS
(max)
Example:
A Matrix 450™ using:
LT-03x Lighting Mode = Very High Power Strobe
Exposure Time (x10
s) = 10 (100
s)
Code Resolution (X) = 0.254 mm (10 mils)
has a maximum line speed of:
0.254 (mm) / 0.0001 (s) = 2540 mm/s
Likewise,
T
exp
(max)
is the maximum
Exposure Time
value that can be used without blurring
for the given application line speed and code resolution. Therefore:
X / LS
(max)
= T
exp
(max)
