Postal Symbologies

Important: Postal Symbologies must have a pixels-per-element value of no more than 7 to be decoded reliably by the MINI Hawk.

The imager must be configured to specific read range, field of view, and camera parameters before decoding Postal Symbologies.

For optimal decode results with a Standard Density (SD) imager:

  • Set Focal Distance to 6" and set gain and shutter settings for a high contrast image.
  • Enable Camera Features at 4:1.
  • Position the imager 3.5" to 6" from the symbol (5-10" if Pixel Sub-Sampling is disabled).
  • Position the symbol as close to the center of the imager's field of view as possible.

Note: Measurements based on a 16 mil (60 dpi) POSTNET symbol.
