DETERMINING THE TRANSMIT POINT FOR AV7000 APPLICATIONS
PRODUCT REFERENCE GUIDE
141
Leading Edge
If the transmit point is from the Leading Edge of the package, the Leading Edge of the
package must pass the last camera scan line in the tunnel before the message is trans-
mitted. Because it is the Leading Edge or front end of the box, more processing time is
r
equired, so we also add the length of the longest box in the system.
Measure from the Trigger Source to the Last Scan Point and record your measurement
as the
Scan Area.
Calculate the Distance to Transmit Point using the following formula:
Scan Area + (Calculated Processing Time * Conveyor Speed) + Longest Box Length +
Transmit Point Advance = Distance to Transmit Point
Enter your calculation as the Distance to Transmit Point.
