National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IE

14、C technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JT

15、C 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodie

16、s for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.

ISO/IEC 15426-1 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 31, Automatic identification and data capture techniques. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO/IEC 15426-1:2000), Clause 2 o

18、f which has been technically revised. ISO/IEC 15426 consists of the following parts, under the general title Information technology Automatic identification and data capture techniques Bar code verifier conformance specification: Part 1: Linear symbols Part 2: Two-dimensional symbols BS ISO/IEC 1542

19、6-1:2006vIntroduction The technology of bar coding is based on the recognition of patterns encoded in dark and light elements of defined dimensions according to rules defining the translation of characters into such patterns, known as the symbology specification. The bar code symbol, as a machine-re

20、adable data carrier, must be produced in such a way as to be reliably decoded at the point of use, if it is to fulfil its basic objective. Standard methodologies have been developed for measuring and assessing the quality of symbols for process control and quality assurance purposes during symbol pr

21、oduction as well as afterwards. Manufacturers of bar code equipment, the producers of bar code symbols and the users of bar code technology require publicly available standard conformance specifications for measuring equipment applying this methodology, to ensure the accuracy and consistency of perf

22、ormance of this equipment. BS ISO/IEC 15426-1:2006blank1Information technology Automatic identification and data capture techniques Bar code verifier conformance specification Part 1: Linear symbols 1 Scope This part of ISO/IEC 15426 defines test methods and minimum accuracy criteria for verifiers u

23、sing the methodology of ISO/IEC 15416 for linear bar code symbols, and specifies reference calibration standards against which these should be tested. This part of ISO/IEC 15426 provides for testing of representative samples of the equipment. NOTE ISO/IEC 15426-2 applies to verifiers for two dimensi

24、onal bar code symbols. 2 Conformance The instrument shall be considered to conform with this part of ISO/IEC 15426 if it performs the functions defined in 6.3 and if the results of measurements of primary reference test symbols carried out in accordance with Clause 8 demonstrate that the arithmetic

25、means of the ten measurements of individual reported parameters are within the tolerances shown in Table 1 below. Table 1 Tolerances for measured parameter values Parameter Tolerance Rmax 5% reflectance Rmin 3% reflectance Decodability 0,08 Defects 0,08 NOTE The tolerances in Table 1 are additional

26、to any tolerances stated by the supplier of the primary reference test symbols. 3 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

29、 for the testing of the accuracy of bar code verifiers and manufactured to close tolerances, of at least ten times the precision of the verifier to be tested, by methods traceable to national standards 5 Symbols and abbreviations RbBar Reflectance, as defined in ISO/IEC 15416 RmaxMaximum reflectance

31、l provide assessments of the quality of a bar code symbol which are accurate and consistent, both in relation to measurements of a specific symbol made with the same instrument over a period of time and in relation to measurements of a specific symbol made by different instruments. Such consistency

32、is essential to enable valid comparisons to be made of assessments of a symbol verified at two different times or on two different instruments. 6.2 Reflectance calibration Verifiers shall have means of calibration and adjustment where necessary of reflectance values against reference reflectance cal

33、ibration samples. ISO/IEC 15416 provides for the use of two calibration points, one as near the high reflectance end of the range and the other as near the low reflectance end of the range as possible. 6.3 Mandatory functions A bar code verifier, in accordance with ISO/IEC 15416, shall be capable of

34、: collecting reflectance measurements from points along one or more scan paths across a bar code symbol; establishing a scan reflectance profile from these measurements; analysing the scan reflectance profile; reporting individual scan reflectance profile parameter grades; determining and reporting

35、an overall symbol grade (including aperture diameter and peak wavelength of light used); BS ISO/IEC 15426-1:20063 reporting the decoded data; reporting all encoded symbol characters. The method of reporting is not specified but may be by means of, for example, a display screen in the instrument, a p

36、rinted report, or electronic communication with another device such as a computer. 6.4 Optional functions Users of verifiers have differing requirements for the amount of detail reported by the instrument, and a verifier may therefore perform additional functions, for example: reporting of number of

37、 scan reflectance profiles on which the overall symbol grade is based; reporting of average and maximum and minimum bar width deviations; reporting of symbology verified; print-out or display of all or, at the users option, selected scan reflectance profiles; calculation and reporting of Print Contr

38、ast Signal (PCS) as (Rmax- Rmin) / Rmax. NOTE The calculation of Print Contrast Signal is included to assist users following application specifications which define contrast by that method. This parameter correlates less closely than does Symbol Contrast with scanning performance. 7 General construc

39、tional and operational requirements 7.1 Installation, operation and maintenance The manufacturer shall specify in documentation provided for or available to the installer, user and maintainer of the equipment the conditions for installation, operation and maintenance of the equipment.
