SCANTEAM 3700 Wedge Technical Manual
Scan Rate
-is the number of times a laser's scanning beam passes through the
exit window in one second.
Scan Velocity
-is the speed of a laser's scanning beam on a target at a given
distance from the front of the scanner or rotating polygon mirror. Usually
expressed in inches/sec.
Scan Width
-is the length of the widest bar code label that can be successfully
interpreted by the scanner.
Scanner
-is an opto-electronic device which produces electrical signals
representing the light it detects as it sees" a bar code.
SMT
-is an acronym for surface mount technology."
Specular Reflection Zone
-The zone where light from the scanner's
illumination source is reflected directly back into the scanner. Specular reflection
interferes with the scanner's operation. This zone should be avoided.
Start/Stop Characters
-are characters used at the beginning and end of a bar
code label that indicate the start and stop (end) of the label.
Trigger
-is a signal input to the decoder that the scanning process should be
initiated. The actual trigger mechanisms can be a push button switch,
photoelectric control, internal object sense, proximity sensor, or multiple
combinations of all of these.
Usable Scan Length
-refers to that portion of the scan path for which the
scanner can accurately digitize bar code and maintain all its specifications. This
length is specified on a flat surface which is perpendicular to the optical axis of the
scanner.
Volatile
-refers to the characteristic of a device which loses data in memory
when power is lost or turned off.
Voltage Range
-refers to the specified range of voltages over which a decoder or
a scanner can maintain all of its electrical, optical (for scanners), and
environmental specifications.
Voting
-is a feature of the SCANTEAM 3700 set by using the Set Votes
Configuration Command,
Km
. If the Voting selection is set to more than 1, the
SCANTEAM 3700 decodes and compares consecutive outputs from the scanner(s);
successive reads of the same data are required for a valid read. Voting results is a
slightly slower read rate, but will reduce the probability of reading errors when a
laser scanner, especially, is being used. If the Voting selection is set to 1, only one
laser scan resulting in a successful decode is required for a valid read.
