Overview
Marking a product is normally done very early on in the produc-
tion process so that all following steps can be controlled using
the product identity.
By using verification systems, the readability of marks is guaran-
teed throughout the entire production process regardless of any
possible contamination or when using different read devices.
Moreover, the marking can continue to be read after the produc-
tion process throughout the lifespan of the product.
With the verification license "Veri-Genius", devices of the
SIMATIC MV440 family can be used for checking the marking
quality of codes (verification) in addition to reading 1D barcodes
and 2D matrix codes.
The license is supplied as a "Single License" on a USB flash
drive and can be installed via the SIMATIC Automation License
Manager (ALM) on any reader of the SIMATIC MV440 series. The
license is executable on a SIMATIC MV440 as of firmware ver-
sion 4.0.
