Figure 5.2: Arrangement of the MVS control bar code
The control bar codes are simply affixed over the existing bar code tape.
NOTE
Distance between two control bar codes!
Make certain that there is only one control bar code (or marker bar code) in the scanning
beam at a time.
The minimum distance between two control bar codes is determined by the distance between
the BPS 8 and bar code tape and the resulting length of the scanning beam.
NOTE
Grid dimension of control/marker bar code!
The control/marker bar code must match the selected grid of the bar code tape used. If a
30 mm grid is used (default), then the control/marker bar code must also be inserted in the
30 mm grid. With a 40 mm grid, a 40 mm control/marker bar code is used.
NOTE
Keep the gap between the BCBs that are switched between as small as possible.
