LVS-7500 features include: • Barcode Validation (Reading of 1D and 2D codes) • Barcode Verification (Grading of 1D and 2D codes to ISO/IEC Standards) • Master-to-Label Comparison (Blemish Detection) • Optical Character Recognition (OCR) • Optical Character Verification (OCV) • Number Validation • Data and Code Matching The LVS-7500 software is highly configurable through settings in an integrated configuration editor. Two operation modes are available: Design mode and Production mode. between Design and Production modes within the LVS-7500 software. The reason for the different modes is to support the segregation of duties and provide a productive and secure environment for label production and validation. The option of using one LVS-7500 system for Design and Production and switching modes is available; this dual mode system would require a specific software license before the functionality is enabled. In dual mode, there is separation of duties with the ability to switch Design and Production mode units are normally separate physical systems. The primary difference between the two modes is that job templates are created in Design mode only. The job templates are then imported and become executable jobs in Production mode. Highlights of each mode are listed below. Design Mode Production Mode • Create a new job template (Design mode only!) • Reusable job templates are imported and become executable jobs (Production mode only!) • Load an existing or unfinished job template • Variable data files assigned to reusable templates if required • Retrieve a job template from archive • Load an existing or unfinished job • Copy an existing job template • Automation options – using LVS-TCP I/P HMI interface • Closeout and clear job templates that are ready for production • Login credentials create an audit trail of operator actions • Promote a job template to production • Operator administration and permissions controlled through Microsoft Active Directory • Summary data reports combine data from multiple runs 4 of 20 LVS-7500 OVERVIEW SPECIFICATION 1.2) Design and production mode flow chart LVS-7500 Implementation Showing Flow of Print Job Design and Production Execution Client Managed Resources Job_Datafile.csv Production Network File Share .\Production\Archive Template Design Repository .\Design\Archive .\Production\Import Client HMI control Label Print Jobs .\Production\Output Client Managed Production Mode LV S - 7 5 0 0 Design Mode JOBS JOBS Print Job Template Design JOBS Print Job Execution 5 of 20 LVS-7500 OVERVIEW SPECIFICATION 2) DESIGN MODE In Design mode, the label verification template is created as a separate process in a pre-press or off-line environment. The design process is as it sounds – the label templates are created and golden images of the actual labels are captured in an off-line process. The inspection points are all set in Design mode so the production process can remain as automated as possible. Label areas or sectors that require vision inspection/validation are defined and the details of the type of validation are stored in the job template. The following sector types are available: Barcode Read This sector type is used to validate a 1D (linear) or 2D (two-dimensional) barcode label. The LVS-7500 inspects the barcode image to determine if it is “readable.” Expected data can be fixed or variable. Barcode Grade This sector type is used to verify (decode and grade) a 1D or 2D barcode image according to ISO/IEC standards. The passing grade is user configurable for each sector. The LVS-7500 verifies 1D and 2D codes including GS1 symbologies according to the internationally accepted rules of the applicable symbology specifications and ISO 15415 and 15416. Barcode Grade This sector type is used to verify (decode and grade) a 1D or 2D barcode image according to ISO/IEC standards. The passing grade is user configurable for each sector. The LVS-7500 verifies 1D and 2D codes including GS1 symbologies according to the internationally accepted rules of the applicable symbology specifications and ISO 15415 and 15416. OCR Read The Optical Character Recognition (OCR) sector type is used to “read” the human readable characters located within a drawn sector; this data can be variable or static. Variable data, such as Lot Number and Expiration Date, is passed to the LVS-7500 using one of two options: • Option 1: Use a data file in a csv format that contains the variable data. This data file and the job template are sent to the LVS® Production system at run time. • Option 2: Send the data over TCP/IP to the LVS-7500 Produc- tion system after the job template is loaded (see “API Control” section for more information). OCV Verify The Optical Character Verification (OCV) sector type is used to score the print quality of the human readable characters within a drawn sector. This sector type provides 100% OCV to matching text validation. The passing score is user configurable for each sector. Blemish This sector type is learned and stored as a golden image to the job and used as non-variable compare for all labels. The LVS-7500 identifies and tracks potential print errors such as die cut errors, broken letters, skews, smears, spots, voids, wrinkles, missing copy, and other print quality defects. Process Description Load an Existing Template The designer can have several job templates in process at one time. By selecting “Load an Existing template,” the designer is prompted to select from a list of in-progress templates located in the Design\Templates folder. From the view screen of existing templates, the designer also has the following options: • Create new template • Delete template • Save as Closeout and Clear Job After design is complete, the designer will select to “Closeout and clear job.” This process creates a job template by zipping up all files for the job and stores the templatename.zip file in the Design\Archive folder of the Design mode LVS-7500 or a mapped location on the client’s server. Save As The designer has the option to reuse an existing completed template. From the list of Archived templates, the designer selects “Save As” and will then be prompted for the new template name. The new template will be renamed and other required files renamed to match. The newly created template folder will be moved to the Design\Templates folder. Retrieve from Archive Job templates previously created during the “Closeout and Clear Job” process can be retrieved from the Microscan Design\Archive folder to allow additional design changes. Retrieved templates are unzipped into a templatename subfolder of the Design\Template folder. Promote to Production While viewing Job templates in the Design\Archive folder, the designer has the option to “Promote to Production.” This option copies the template to the Production\Import folder making it available for execution by a Production mode operator. Job Template Create/Edit New job templates can be created from scratch or from an existing template. The new job template is created with the LVS-7500 job editor. The template is fully tested in Design mode until it is ready to promote to a Production template. 6 of 20 LVS-7500 OVERVIEW SPECIFICATION In Design mode, the LVS7500 utilizes the following job template related file folders for a specific purpose. The naming of the folders below is based on their purpose but can be changed to suite the client. All folders can be on a mapped network drive or local drive for each LVS-7500 system. • Design\Templates folder: - In Design mode, this is where new templates are created and designed. Multiple templates under development are allowed; each is contained in a subfolder of the Microscan Design\ Templates folder. - New templates initiated using the “Create a New Job” process are created in the Design\ Templates folder as described above. • Design\Archive folder: Send the data over TCP/IP to the LVS7500 Production system after the job template is loaded (see “API Control” section for more information). Design mode is intended to eliminate the set-up process on the production line. Design mode systems can be setup anywhere on the client’s network. The Design mode system is a complete system that includes the LVS-7500 inspection unit, computer and client printer. The process of capturing a Golden Image is through a physical printout of the mock production run labels. The mock production labels are printed and variable data attributes are tested in the Design mode. Once a golden image is captured from an actual label print, the Design operator can compare that image against an approved PDF using the supplied PDF comparison software on the Design system. The comparison process is as simple as loading an approved PDF from a folder location on the network and clicking “Play.” The software runs a comparison against the captured golden image and highlights any differences for the operator to review. Once satisfied that the PDF and Golden image match, the operator clicks “Accept” and a report is stored with the job for any future reference. If the operator finds any discrepancies, he/she simply reprints a new image on the LVS-7500 and runs the comparison again. The Design system is a sophisticated software package with many inspection capabilities. It is best operated by a well-trained individual or group to ensure the final production process runs as automated as possible with as little operator interference as possible. 2.1) DESIGN MODE GUI After the LVS-7500 user Login, the Design mode initial screen will display two option buttons: “Retrieve from Archive” and “Load an Existing job.” • Retrieve from Archive: This button opens a view screen displaying the contents of the folder defined in the LVS-7500 set- tings for \Design\ Archive. A job template is selected by doubleclicking the template name. Job templates are placed in this folder by the “Closeout and Clear Job” process in the Design mode system. In the job template view screen, the operator has options to “Delete,” “Save as” and “Promote to production.” The “Promote to production” option will copy the job template to the \Production\Template folder, making it available to an LVS-7500 Production mode system. • Load an Existing Job: This button opens a view screen displaying the contents of the folder defined in the LVS-7500 settings for \Design\Template. A template is selected by double-clicking the desired templatename. zip file. From the view screen, the following options are available: “Create new template,” “Delete template,” and “Save as.” Button Description Closeout and Clear job Select this button when the active job template design is complete. The current template files are zipped and become a new job templates and are moved to the \Design\Archive folder. The designer has the option of removing the data file or including the data file in the new template prior to zipping. The template files in the \Design\Template folder are not deleted and remain available to the designer. Delete job Current job is deleted from the \Design\Template folder. View logs Displays the print job results for the current run. Edit job Opens the LVS-7500 job editor allowing modifications to the print job template. Exit to Main LVS-7500 returns to initial screen. The current job template remains in the Design\Templates folder. MakeReady Selected when operator needs to test the printing process to ensure printer setting are correct to produce labels. Continue last run Selected when current job has an active run but job is not completed. The LVS-7500 will hold the printer output until this button is selected. Start new run Selected when a new job is loaded and ready to begin label validation. The LVS-7500 will hold the printer output until this button is selected. 7 of 20 LVS-7500 OVERVIEW SPECIFICATION 3) PRODUCTION MODE In Production mode, the LVS-7500 can be configured based upon the printer implementation and level of operator interaction desired. Some printers allow failing labels to be pulled back into the printer and over struck, effectively destroying the failing label. While other printers that do not have this overstrike feature are paused by the LVS-7500 for the operator to take action to remove and destroy a failing label. The LVS-7500 software can be configured to accommodate the level of user interaction desired by a customer. Production mode systems are designed to simplify the print job verification process. The client can choose what level of automation they prefer for their production environment: from a basic HMI provided by the client to handle the movement of job folders from the client server to LVS-7500 local production systems – to a fully controlled client-created HMI running and controlling the LVS-7500. Microscan has options for most client’s needs. Our logic for splitting Design mode and Production mode is to simplify the inspection process for the production operators. We offer some simplistic interface functions that most, if not all clients should be able to access and utilize to painlessly integrate the LVS-7500 into your existing label production process. • Standard User Interface: The operator selects the “Import a Job” button on the main LVS-7500 “Welcome” screen and selects a job template from the designated Production\Import folder. If the template requires a match-to data file, the operator is prompted to select a data file. The operator is then prompted to provide a new job name to be given to the reusable template. • Auto Load Setting: The Auto Load configuration setting allows clients to drop a job file into the active Production\Jobs folder and the LVS-7500 will take over from there. If the template requires a match-to data file, the file will also be dropped into the Jobs folder. The LVS-7500 loads the new template, preps any data elements for inspection and controls the printer, awaiting a signal from the LVS-7500 to start the inspection process. • Custom HMI using TCP I/P: The client has access to the LVS-7500 API through the use of TCP I/P commands. Clients or integrators can create a custom HMI to integrate the LVS-7500 into a client’s label production process. In Production mode, the LVS-7500 utilizes the following logical folder types. The physical location and naming of these folders is configured in the LVS-7500 software settings: Folder Type Description Production\Jobs The folder where the currently loaded and active job is located. Only one active job is allowed, which is verified by the LVS-7500 software. Jobs are moved into this folder when the operator selects a job from the “Production\ Import” folder. When “Closeout and Clear Job” is executed, the job files are zipped and moved to the Archive folder and the jobname.zip file is removed from the Import folder. If Auto Load is enabled, once the active job is cleared, the system automatically begins monitoring the Jobs folder for any new job files. Production\Import This folder contains new jobs templates available for execution. Each template is contained in a single templatename.zip file created in Design mode. Templates selected for execution are unzipped into a jobname folder in the “Production\Jobs” folder location previously described. If the template requires a match-to data file, the operator is prompted to select a data file. The operator is prompted to provide a new job name to be given to the reusable template. When a “Closeout and Clear Job” is executed, the active job files are zipped and moved to the Archive folder. The templatename.zip template file remains in the Production\Import folder to be reused. Production\Output For a completed job, the “Closeout and Clear Job” process causes the output reporting and summary files to be written to this folder path. Production\Archive If the job is closed out and cleared, the job is zipped up and moved from the Jobs folder to the Archive folder. Jobs can be retrieved from Archive so that an unfinished job can be completed. 8 of 20 LVS-7500 OVERVIEW SPECIFICATION 3.1) PRODUCTION MODE GUI After logging in to the LVS-7500, the Production mode initial screen will display two option buttons: The “Retrieve from Archive” button is always displayed on the screen. The other button will either be “Load an Existing job” or “Import a New Template.” See below for full button descriptions. Folder Type Description Retrieve from Archive Clicking this button opens a view screen displaying the contents of the folder defined in the LVS-7500 settings for \ Production\Archive. A job is selected by double-clicking the job name. Load an Existing Job This button is displayed if there is an existing job loaded in the Jobs folder. Selecting this button opens a view screen displaying the contents of the folder defined in the LVS-7500 settings for \Production\Jobs. A job is selected by double-clicking the job name. If an existing job is loaded, the “Closeout and Clear Job” process must be executed before the operator has the option to “Import a New Job.” Import a New Template This button is displayed if there is no currently loaded job in the \Production\Jobs folder. Selecting this button opens a view screen displaying the contents of the folder defined in the LVS-7500 settings for \Production\Import. A job template is selected by double-clicking the template name. The operator will be prompted to provide a job name to be created from the selected template. If the template requires a match-to data file, the system will prompt for selection of the data file. The data files are also located in the \Production\Import folder After a template is selected, the LVS7500 “Ready to Run” screen opens and is now considered to be an executable job. The option buttons displayed along the left side of the display will depend upon the LVS-7500 software configuration setting and the current state of the loaded job. The following “Ready to Run” buttons are available: Folder Type Description Edit job User must provide login credentials with the Edit permission. Opens the LVS-7500 job editor allowing modifications to the print job. Exit to Main The LVS-7500 returns to the initial screen. The current job remains in the Production\Jobs folder. MakeReady Selected when the operator needs to test the printing process to ensure printer settings are correct to produce labels. Labels printed are not included in the Pass/Fail totals of the print job reports. Continue last run Selected when current job has an active run but job is not completed. The LVS-7500 will hold the printer output until this button is selected. Start new run Selected when a new job is loaded and ready to begin label validation. The LVS-7500 will hold the printer output until this button is selected. 9 of 20 LVS-7500 OVERVIEW SPECIFICATION 3.2) IDENTIFICATION OF NON-CONFORMING LABELS During the job inspection process, any errors are displayed in the Error Display log provided on the Operate screen while you are running the job. Click on an error to view the barcode image and barcode graded parameters. The non-conforming label results are also stored for analysis post Error Display Log Bar code parameters 3.3) RUN LOG REPORTS SCREEN The Reports screen displays a report for 10 of 20 job inspection on the Run Log Reports Screen. each sector. Each line of data starts with the label repeat number followed by a date/time stamp, decoded string, error code (if any), and other data associated with the image being inspected LVS-7500 OVERVIEW SPECIFICATION 3.4) RUN LOG WITH IMAGES Blemish, barcode, and OCR/OCV error images can be viewed by clicking on the red cell in the log file. An error display screen will then appear. If the error is a blemish, the Golden Image will show on the Left; a Toggle between Golden and Actual in the center; and the Actual Blemish image is on the right. Toggle screens of Golden image as compared to the actual image. This is a duplicate of the Operate screen’s error presentation methodology.

An operator may start and stop a job multiple times before completion of the job. The LVS-7500 captures and stores the results from all of these runs. For a completed job, when the “Closeout and Clear Job” process is executed, the data for the multiple runs is 12 of 20 monitor user activity in Production mode. The level of activity logging is configured in the LVS-7500 software settings. When enabled, user activity must be confirmed by entering user login credentials. User actions are logged and saved in the output report files. combined and output as a set of output summary files. If the job has a match-to data file with a serialized Unique per job data field, this information can be used to closely control the job completion progress. The pass or fail status of each label can be accounted for and the completion of the job recorded when all labels in the match-to data file have been processed. LVS- 7500 creates a set of Output Summary Files and writes these files to the shared network path location for the unit. Five Output Summary Files are created in the Production\Output path defined in each LVS-7500 configuration settings. The jobname will be the prefix on all files. The files can be stored on a central location file share or network mapped location as required by the client. The five Output Summary Files include: 1. jobname_SUMMARYREPORT_1.htm When a print job is closed out, the 2. jobname_SUMMARY_1.csv 3. jobname_REPLACEMENT_1.csv 4. jobname_PRODUCTION_1.csv 5. jobname_AUDITTRAIL_1.txt Refer to the next page for examples of each Output Summary File.

This is available to third party software providers in order to remotely operate and communicate with LVS-7500 systems. These are the TCP/IP commands currently supported. 4.1.1) Load Job The “Load Job” command will load the desired job on all connected LVS7500 systems. 4.1.2) Start Running The “Start Running” command will start the currently loaded job on the LVS-7500 system. 4.1.3) Stop Running The “Stop Running” command will stop the desired job on the LVS7500 system. 4.1.4) Continue Last Run The “Continue Last Run” command is valid only after a job has been loaded. Sending this command will initiate inspections and the results will be appended to the most recent run file (CSV file) instead of creating a new run. 4.1.5) Make Ready The “Make Ready” command is valid only after a job has been loaded. Sending this command will load initiate Make Ready mode for the currently loaded job. 4.1.6) Start Bypass The “Start Bypass” command is valid only after a job has been loaded and is currently running. Sending this command will put the LVS-7500 system into Bypass mode. “Match this text” field. Example: The field designator “REF_NBR” has already been entered in the “Match this text” field for the desired sectors in the job. 4.1.7) End Bypass The “End Bypass” command is valid only after a job has been loaded and is currently running in Bypass mode. Sending this command will take the LVS-7500 system out of Bypass mode and back into normal run mode. 4.1.8) Reset Alarms The “Reset Alarms” command is the equivalent of clicking the “Reset alarms” button on the LVS-7500 system. 4.1.9) Set Match To The “Set Match To” command sets the “Match this text” string of OCR, OCV, barcode grade or barcode read sectors. To use this feature, a field designator text string is entered into the “Match this text” setting in each sector. The field designator is a unique string identifier that is replaced at runtime when the “Set Match To” command is sent to the LVS-7500 system. Multiple sectors may have the same field designator entered in the To replace the field designator “REF_NBR” with “ABC123” at run time send the following “Set Match To” command: <0x01c hex><”REF_ NBR|ABC123”> 4.1.10) Exit to Main The “Exit to Main” command exits from the job “Ready to run” screen back to the LVS-7500 system Welcome screen. 15 of 20 LVS-7500 OVERVIEW SPECIFICATION 5) SECURITY AND USER PERMISSIONS Two options are available for the management of user permissions: • Option one: Manage permissions of operators completely within the LVS-7500 software. Users with LVS-7500 administra- tor access can create and manage permissions of other operators completely within each LVS-7500. • Option two: Use Microsoft Active Directory to manage LVS-7500 operator authentication and authorization. The LVS-7500 software will integrate with Microsoft Active Directory. LVS-7500 users will be granted user privileges based Microsoft authentication and LVS-7500 permissions are assigned based on group membership in Microscan specific Active Directory groups. Below are the available LVS-7500 user permissions. LVS-7500 operators can have a combination of permissions to allow a security design that fits business requirement needs. Permission Description Allow Create / Edit NEW Job Allows the operator to create/edit/delete a job. Allow Load EXISTING Job Allows the operator to load and execute existing jobs. Note this permission does not allowed to user to edit existing jobs. Allow Calibration Allows the operator to perform calibration. Allow Administration Allows the operator access to the “Administration” menu bar feature where operators and operator permissions are set up. Allow the operator to access the “Settings” menu bar feature where LVS-7500 software configuration settings are selected.

The LVS-7500 will create a local file Operators. dat containing all of the LVS-7500 users and their permissions. All of the users created are in the AD Group specified in the LVS-7500 configuration setting: ActiveDirectoryLVSAllUsers. The user passwords are not stored locally in the Operators. dat file. When a user enters a username and password into the LVS7500, the credentials are verified with the current user name and password 6) FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS The characteristics listed below apply to the LVS- 7500 5.4” (137 mm) and 8.5” (216 mm) readheads. Line Scan Camera: 400 DPI. Floating Sensor Head Light Source: Red Light. 660 nm Inputs / Outputs: USB 2.0 port. 5-Volt Power Supply Maximum System Speed: 10 inches (300 mm) per second in the AD. The LVS-7500 Operator Administration window can be used to view the current users and their permissions, but the “Add new operator,” “Change this operator” and “Delete this operator” are disabled. When users are disabled or deleted from AD, their access to LVS-7500 login is immediately disabled, even if the LVS-7500 has not been restarted. Active Directory control of LVS-7500 users provides a single, secure record of authentication and authorization. Control of all AD changes is managed through AD Group policy and ownership. 6.1) Functional Characteristics Verify Any combination of linear, matrix or stacked codes to ISO print quality standards including: • Linear (1D) Verifier Conformance (ISO/IEC 15416) • 2-Dimensional (2D) Verifier Conformance (ISO/IEC 15415) Orientation & Number Any orientation and number of codes on a label.

Lowercase characters can be distinguished in OCR-B MT font only. Characters cannot touch or overlap. Data Verifies variable and fixed data ascending, descending or from a file. 6.4) Number Validation • Any numerical order requirements such as ascending, descending, or algorithmic series to ensure the numbers are in the expected order • Use external data file for the validation of random number sequence Any number of sectors can be set to use “match to file”. The following shows an LVS-7500 in design mode, editing a job to create inspection sectors. This example shows 3 sectors defined, numbered 1-3. • Detects duplicate numbers 6.5) Matching • Matches decoded data from a barcode to human readable text of that barcode • Matches multiple fields of data within the label area being inspected 6.6) Match To File This feature compares the data decoded within a sector to the data in a file created by the user. Note the format of the file must be as follows: • The format of the file must be a commaseparated values (CSV) file. Below is an example data file, showing three columns of csv data corresponding to the three sectors. Sector 1 would be defined as being unique for the job allowing the LVS-7500 to determine when a job was completed. 7) SUPPORTED SYMBOLOGIES Below are a few of the symbologies supported by the LVS-7500.
