Quick Check® 600/800 Series User’s Guide 4 - 5Reviewing a Scan ExampleTo clarify the difference between a scan grade and a symbol grade, this sectionpresents an example of how you might set up your verifier, scan the symbols andreview the results. In this example, we change the verifier settings and see howthey affect the results.1. To begin, we set up the verifier with the following settings:• Test Criteria Passing Option set to ISO/IECISO/IEC; the letter gradeselected does not matter• Scanning Options Extended Accuracy set to 3; note that this settingaffects the scan grade.2. Scan a bar code symbol.After the first scan, a message appears stating we have two more scans togo (of the same scan path or line across the symbol) tosatisfy the preset Extended Accuracy setting of 3.3. Continue to scan the same line of the symbol for a total of three scans.After the third scan, the scan grade appears on the display (the scan gradeis the lowest of the grades of all of the parameters, in this case, averaged forthe three scans).We now have the scan grade for a specific path across the symbol.4. Scan another line or path of the symbol three times to obtain asecond scan grade.After the third scan of the second set, a different display appears. Thisdisplay is the value we set for the #Scans/Symbol (2) and the number ofscan grades used to determine the symbol grade.Note: If you set the Test Criteria Passing to traditional rather than to ISO/IECgrade, the scan grade is reported as Pass or Fail. The verifier does notreport an ISO/IEC symbol grade when you select “traditional.”♦ To obtain the scan grade and ISO/IEC Symbol grade:1. Enter the Scanning Options Extended Accuracy setting you want. This set-ting determines the number of scans of the same path you want used to cal-culate the scan grade.If you set the Test Criteria Passing setting to ISO/IEC, you can obtain theISO/IEC symbol grade:• Enter the Test Criteria Passing setting to an ISO/IEC grade• Set the Test Criteria #Scans/Symbol setting to the value you want.This setting determines the number of scans grades you want to useto calculate the final symbol grade.Refer toChapter 3, Changing the Settings for instructions on changingthe settings.2. Scan the bar code symbol.The first line of this display provides the symbol or application name and theencoded scan data. If the first line of scan data exceeds 16 characters inlength, a right arrowhead appears as the rightmost character of the display.Press → on the verifier to review all the decoded data.
