Reading distance
In the specification diagrams (
see "Reading field diagrams", page 47
) the height of
the reading field dependent upon the reading distance is shown for differing resolutions
(module widths).

Angle alignment of the device
The optimum alignment of the device is achieved when the scan line crosses the
stripes of the bar code as close to a right angle as possible (tilt and pitch). Possible
reading angles that can arise between scan line and bar code at all three levels in the
area must be taken into account.
To prevent surface reflection, the rotation angle should be about 105°,
of surface reflections", page 24

NOTE
The specified maximum values can only be reached in optimum conditions. The actual
maximum depends on module width, code type, print contrast, ambient light, distance
and scanning frequency.
