Enter the minimum length of a pack in the space provided
(mm [in]).
Minimum

Behavior
Select Ignore Error, Compose, or Discard Last from the drop-
down list.
Ignore Error: the error is ignored
Compose: Enter the Minimum Distance Between
Packages in the field provided.
Discard Last: discards all received packages
Minimum
Distance
Between
Packages
Enter the minimum distance (mm, in) between consecutive
packages. This field is only available when Compose or Discard
Last is selected for the Minimum Distance Error Behavior.
Enter a Window Dimension in the field provided.
The measurement of a barcode position in absolute coordinates
performed by the scanners may be affected by an error. PackTrack
evaluation can fail in assigning the barcode for this reason. With the
Window Dimension parameter, the Y coordinates that delimit the
pack can be virtually extended to improve the assigning success
rate (see the following figure).
If the minimum distance between two consecutive packs is less
than twice the value of the Window Dimension, the window is
dynamically resized (dynamic window) to half the distance between
the two packs. The code will be assigned within the Window
Dimension of the closest pack.
If the minimum distance between two consecutive packs is more
than twice the value of the Window Dimension, the code will be
assigned within the Window Dimension itself.
Select Constant Speed (Internal) or Physical Encoder
(Tachometer) from the drop-down list:
Constant Speed (Internal): Allows the user to specify the
tach rate to be used (from .05 - 3.05 m/sec [from 10 - 600
ft/min]). No external hardware is used.
Physical Encoder (Tachometer): A physical encoder is
connected to the Encoder input and is enabled
