Scan Rate and Belt Speed System Counters
Scan Rate This is the total number of scans/second that the reader is
reading. Note the this number does NOT take into account
“laser toggling” if it is enabled. If “laser toggling” is enabled,
the effective scan rate for any laser is half of this value.
Belt Speed
(Tracking)
Speed of the belt (in ft/min) as measured by the tachometer.
Bar Code System Counters
Triggers Total number of packages based on the trigger signal. In self-
trigger mode, this will match the number of good reads.
Good Reads Total number of bar codes read and transmitted. If the reader
is set up to read multiple bar codes each trigger, this counter is
incremented for each bar code read.
No Reads Total number of bar codes that were not read.
Mult Codes Total number of instances where more bar codes of a specific
type were read than expected. This counter will also
increment, regardless of whether the reader is configured to
report “multiple codes” as an error.
Match Codes Total number of bar codes that matched any of the Match
Code criteria.
Bad ModChk Total number of bar codes that were rejected due to an invalid
Mod Check.
