AUTO PACKTRACK™ CALIBRATION FOR READING STATION
USING SCANNER MENU
1.7.1 Auto PackTrack Conditions and Limits
The Conditions and Limits for Auto PackTrack Calibration are summarized here for
convenience and are also integrated into the following procedure descriptions:
The following scanners are supported by Auto PackTrack Calibration: DS6400 (*see note
below), DX6400 (*see note below), DS8100A, DX8200A.
Before performing the Auto PackTrack Calibration procedure, if a system reset or power
reset is performed, wait for all the scanners to be available (up to 60 sec.) before
proceeding.
Operating Mode of the Master must be either PackTrack or Continuous.
Code 128 codes must be enabled on the Master with Label Length set to variable.
If the system Presence Sensor and Encoder are used, the correct Encoder Step value
must be set on the Master and the Presence Sensor must be connected to the
CBX100/500 Input 1.
If instead the PPA-8000 Photocell Array is used, it must be connected to the CBX100/500
I1 and I2 inputs,
the following parameters must be
disabled on the Master
: Physical
Encoder for PackTrack or Use Encoder for Continuous,
and the Encoder, if present,
must be physically disconnected
.
DX scanners which are calibrated automatically cannot be automatically replaced by DX
scanners with a previous sw version (earlier than 6.80). You must either update the old
scanner software prior to substitution, or complete the calibration manually, after
installation, by setting the PSOffset and Direction parameters.
NOTE
The autofocus feature of DS6400 and DX6400 scanners makes Auto
PackTrack Calibration difficult, therefore to assure that the procedure can
correctly calibrate these scanners, it is necessary to set a fixed focus value
which allows the scanner to read all the label positions useful for its
calibration.
