5.7.13.1.1 Multiread
You use the Multiread parameter to define a minimum number of G
OOD READ required for a
reading to be output as a G
OOD READ.
By defining a minimum number of readings, you reduce the likelihood of misinterpretations
for codes with poor printing quality or a low contrast, and increase reading reliability.
5.7.13.1.2 Module width
You can use the Module width parameter to choose between the automatic and user-defi-
ned module width.
User-defined module
width
You use the User-defined module width parameter to specify in mm the smallest structure
for decoding a code.
Missing start and stop characters for codes of code type Pharmacode mean that incorrect
readings could occur for structures with a similar code. To increase reading reliability, the
value should be tailored as accurately as possible to the smallest code element (module
width) that actually occurs in the code.
5.7.13.1.3 Reverse
If the Reverse parameter is activated, the code is read in reverse direction.
As the codes of code type Pharmacode do not have a start or stop character and do not have
a check digit at the end, the code contents differ depending on the reading direction. The
reading direction must therefore be defined in the configuration.
5.7.13.2 Not calibratable
Not calibratable (PHARMA)
5.7.13.2.1 Fixed length
The Fixed length parameter can be used to define a required code length. Only codes with
this length are read.
5.7.14 Data matrix
If the Data matrix parameter is activated, decoding is activated for the corresponding code
type. The configuration tab for the corresponding code type can be seen and opened in
SOPAS ET.
As only activated code types are processed, you can increase the processing speed by deac-
tivating the code types that are not being used.
• Code name: Data matrix
• Max. number of numeric characters: 3116
