This applies both to the mechanical properties and the high-quality image processing functions of all devices in the SIMATIC MV400 product family. SIMATIC MV440 can also verify the code quality of codes according to commonly applied standards. The reader calculates the quality of applied codes and therefore allows quality control of the marking process.

The verifier assigns a quality grade from 4 to 0 to the readable markings. This grade informs the marking device or operator when preventive maintenance is required. Based on this knowledge, maintenance can be planned at a suitable time before the machine actually becomes defective. SIMATIC MV420 / SIMATIC MV440 Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E02371045-06...
Page 45
Depending on the particular requirements, there are several test standards. Data matrix codes on labels can be tested with test systems according to ISO/IEC 16022. For directly marked parts, however, a verification tailored to this purpose is necessary. SIMATIC MV420 / SIMATIC MV440 Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E02371045-06...
Verifiers of the newer generations identify the value range numerically from 4 to 0 with 0 being the lowest quality level. With the verifiers of the SIMATIC MV440 series, the user can choose either of the quality grading systems.
ISO/IEC 15415 or AS9132A should be used. Use AIM DPM-1-2006 for applications with demanding lighting conditions. In contrast to all other verification standards; automatic exposure control is performed here to optimally capture the code to be verified.

4.2.4.1 Siemens DPM In Siemens DPM verification, the user can select the test parameters to be used and configure the levels "Good", "Fair" and "Poor" for every test parameter individually. The range of options for verification is ideal for process control in data matrix applications in which no public standard needs to be adhered to.

The ratio is calculated for the element or the combination of elements that deviates most from the ideal dimension. SIMATIC MV420 / SIMATIC MV440 Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E02371045-06...
After successful recalibration of an element of the verification library, all programs that reference this element can be used immediately. Siemens AG recommends that you operate the reader with its own lighting. You should also shield the reader and the code to be measured from the surrounding light.

0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or F, D, C, B, A (in each case, in this order). For Siemens DPM, the characteristics list contains 10 entries since all the quality characteristics can be configured individually here. For all other standards, only the overall grade is output whose evaluation is relevant for all grades.
Whenever a verification error occurs, all quality grades are output as "E" and the error number is output instead of the quality values.

● Power via pairs of wires that are used for data transmission (phantom power). The Ethernet connector of the SIMATIC MV440 reader is four-wire. Power can only be suppled via these four wires with phantom power. The device supplying the power must provide the phantom power.
• In some situations, longer connecting cables up to 1000 m are possible. In this case, take into account the current consumption of the reader of 0.17 A for SIMATIC MV420 and 0.27 A for SIMATIC MV440. • Avoid connecting more than two cable sections in series to create a longer cable due to the connector resistance.

Data is sometimes saved in a different order in certain computer architectures. Intel-based computers, for example, save the data differently from the Siemens controllers (S7), namely, in reverse sequence. The byte sequence from Intel, termed Little Endian, is therefore the reverse S7 byte sequence, Big Endian.
