Example:
The FOV for a Matrix 300 412-0xx at a reading distance of 200 mm is:
FOV
H
= 2 [(200 mm + 14 mm) tan (40°/2)]  156 mm
FOV
V
= 2 [(200 mm + 14 mm) tan (32°/2)]  123 mm
NOTE: The following diagrams are given for typical performance at 25°C
using high quality grade A symbols according to ISO/IEC 15416 (1D code)
and ISO/IEC 15415 (2D code) print quality test specifications. Testing should
be performed with actual application codes in order to maximize the
application performance.
