LVS-7500 OVERVIEW SPECIFICATION

This document outlines

the product detail and

interface to the LVS-

7500 inspection system

for thermally printed

labels.

1) LVS-7500 OVERVIEW

1.1) 1.1 General

The LVS-7500 of-

fers 100% print qual-

ity inspection and ISO

verication of 1D and 2D

barcodes for thermal and

thermal transfer print-

ers. LVS-7500 features

include:

• Barcode Validation

(Reading of 1D and 2D

codes)

• Barcode Verication

(Grading of 1D and

2D codes to ISO/IEC

Standards)

• Master-to-Label

Comparison (Blemish

Detection)

• Optical Character

Recognition (OCR)

• Optical Character

Verication (OCV)

• Number Validation

• Data and Code

Matching

The LVS-7500 software

is highly congurable

through settings in an

integrated conguration

editor. Two operation

modes are available:

Design mode and Produc-

tion mode.

The reason for the differ-

ent 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 specic soft-

ware license before the

functionality is enabled.

In dual mode, there is

separation of duties

with the ability to switch

between Design and Pro-

duction modes within the

LVS-7500 software.

Design and Production

mode units are nor-

mally 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 Pro-

duction mode. Highlights

of each mode are listed

below.

LVS-7500 OVERVIEW SPECIFICATION

2) DESIGN MODE

In Design mode, the la-

bel verication template

is created as a separate

process in a pre-press

or off-line environment.

The design process is as

it sounds – the label tem-

plates are created and

golden images of the ac-

tual 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 sec-

tors that require vision

inspection/validation are

dened 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 deter-

mine if it is “readable.”

Expected data can be

xed or variable.

Barcode Grade

This sector type is used

to verify (decode and

grade) a 1D or 2D bar-

code image according to

ISO/IEC standards. The

passing grade is user

congurable for each

sector. The LVS-7500

veries 1D and 2D codes

including GS1 symbolo-

gies according to the

internationally accepted

rules of the applicable

symbology specica-

tions and ISO 15415 and

15416.

gies according to the

rules of the applicable

symbology specica-

tions 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 Expira-

tion Date, is passed to

the LVS-7500 using one

of two options:

• Option 1: Use a data

le in a csv format that

contains the variable

data. This data le

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” sec-

tion for more informa-

tion).

OCV Verify

The Optical Character

Verication (OCV) sector

type is used to score the

print quality of the hu-

man readable characters

within a drawn sector.

This sector type provides

100% OCV to matching

text validation. The pass-

ing score is user congu-

rable 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 identies

and tracks potential print

errors such as die cut

errors, broken letters,

skews, smears, spots,

voids, wrinkles, miss-

ing copy, and other print

quality defects.

In Design mode, the LVS-

7500 utilizes the follow-

ing job template related

le folders for a specic

purpose. The naming

of the folders below is

based on their purpose

but can be changed to

suite the client. All fold-

ers 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 cre-

ated 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 cre-

ated in the Design\

Templates folder as

described above.

• Design\Archive

folder:

Send the data over

TCP/IP to the LVS-

7500 Production

system after the job

template is loaded

(see “API Control”

section for more infor-

mation).

Design mode is in-

tended 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 in-

spection 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 differ-

ences for the operator

to review. Once satised

that the PDF and Golden

image match, the opera-

tor clicks “Accept” and

a report is stored with

the job for any future

reference. If the opera-

tor nds any discrepan-

cies, 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 nal

production process runs

as automated as possi-

ble 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: “Re-

trieve from Archive” and

“Load an Existing job.”

• Retrieve from Ar-

chive: This button

opens a view screen

displaying the contents

of the folder dened

in the LVS-7500 set-

tings for \Design\

Archive. A job template

is selected by double-

clicking 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 tem-

plate view screen, the

operator has options

to “Delete,” “Save as”

and “Promote to pro-

duction.” The “Promote

to production” option

will copy the job tem-

plate to the \Produc-

tion\Template folder,

making it available to

an LVS-7500 Produc-

tion mode system.

• Load an Existing Job:

This button opens a

view screen displaying

the contents of the

folder dened in the

LVS-7500 settings for

\Design\Template. A

template is selected

by double-clicking the

desired templatename.

zip le. From the view

screen, the following

options are available:

“Create new template,”

“Delete template,” and

“Save as.”

3) PRODUCTION MODE

In Production mode,

the LVS-7500 can be

congured based upon

the printer implementa-

tion and level of opera-

tor interaction desired.

Some printers allow

failing labels to be pulled

back into the printer and

over struck, effectively

destroying the failing

label. While other print-

ers that do not have this

overstrike feature are

paused by the LVS-7500

for the operator to take

action to remove and de-

stroy a failing label. The

LVS-7500 software can

be congured to accom-

modate the level of user

interaction desired by a

customer.

Production mode sys-

tems are designed to

simplify the print job

verication process. The

client can choose what

level of automation they

prefer for their produc-

tion environment: from

a basic HMI provided by

the client to handle the

movement of job folders

from the client server to

LVS-7500 local produc-

tion systems – to a fully

controlled client-created

HMI running and control-

ling the LVS-7500.

Microscan has options

for most client’s needs.

Our logic for split-

ting Design mode and

Production mode is to

simplify the inspection

process for the produc-

tion 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 In-

terface: 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 le, the operator

is prompted to select a

data le. The opera-

tor is then prompted

to provide a new job

name to be given to

the reusable template.

• Auto Load Setting:

The Auto Load congu-

ration setting allows

clients to drop a job

le into the active

Production\Jobs folder

and the LVS-7500 will

take over from there. If

the template requires

a match-to data le,

the le will also be

dropped into the Jobs

folder. The LVS-7500

loads the new tem-

plate, preps any data

elements for inspec-

tion and controls the

printer, awaiting a sig-

nal 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 cre-

ate 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 loca-

tion and naming of these

folders is congured in

the LVS-7500 software

settings:

3.5) REVIEW

AUDIT TRAIL

The Review Audit Trail

feature allows you to

monitor user activity in

Production mode. The

level of activity logging is

congured in the

LVS-7500 software set-

tings. When enabled,

user activity must be

conrmed by entering

user login credentials.

User actions are logged

and saved in the output

report les.

3.6) OUTPUT RESULTS

OF LABEL INSPECTION

JOB

In Production mode,

the complete execution

of a job may consist of

multiple job runs. 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

combined and output as

a set of output sum-

mary les. If the job

has a match-to data le

with a serialized Unique

per job data eld, 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 le

have been processed.

When a print job is

closed out, the

LVS- 7500 creates a set

of Output Summary Files

and writes these les

to the shared network

path location for the unit.

Five Output Summary

Files are created in the

Production\Output path

dened in each LVS-7500

conguration settings.

The jobname will be the

prex on all les. The

les can be stored on a

central location le share

or network mapped loca-

tion as required by the

client. The ve Output

Summary Files include:

1. jobname_SUMMA-

RYREPORT_1.htm

2. jobname_SUMMA-

RY_1.csv

3. jobname_REPLACE-

MENT_1.csv

4. jobname_PRODUC-

4) API CONTROL

Basic Production mode

functionality of the LVS-

7500 can be controlled

using aTCP/IP command

set. This is available

to third party software

providers in order to re-

motely operate and com-

municate with LVS-7500

systems. These are the

TCP/IP commands cur-

rently supported.

4.1.1) Load Job

The “Load Job” command

will load the desired job

on all connected LVS-

7500 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 LVS-

7500 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

le (CSV le) instead of

creating a new run.

4.1.5) Make Ready

The “Make Ready” com-

mand is valid only after

a job has been loaded.

Sending this command

will load initiate Make

Ready mode for the cur-

rently loaded job.

4.1.6) Start Bypass

The “Start Bypass” com-

mand 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.

4.1.7) End Bypass

The “End Bypass” com-

mand is valid only after a

job has been loaded and

is currently running in By-

pass 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” com-

mand is the equivalent

of clicking the “Reset

alarms” button on the

LVS-7500 system.

4.1.9) Set Match To

The “Set Match To” com-

mand sets the “Match

this text” string of OCR,

OCV, barcode grade or

barcode read sectors. To

use this feature, a eld

designator text string is

entered into the “Match

this text” setting in each

sector. The eld desig-

nator is a unique string

identier that is replaced

at runtime when the “Set

Match To” command is

sent to the LVS-7500

system. Multiple sectors

may have the same eld

designator entered in the

“Match this text” eld.

Example:

The eld designator

“REF_NBR” has already

been entered in the

“Match this text” eld for

the desired sectors in

the job.

To replace the eld des-

ignator “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” com-

mand exits from the job

“Ready to run” screen

back to the LVS-7500

system Welcome screen.

5) SECURITY AND USER

PERMISSIONS

Two options are available

for the management of

user permissions:

• Option one: Man-

age permissions of

operators completely

within the LVS-7500

software. Users with

LVS-7500 administra-

tor access can create

and manage permis-

sions of other opera-

tors completely within

each LVS-7500.

• Option two: Use Mi-

crosoft Active Directory

to manage LVS-7500

operator authentica-

tion and authorization.

The LVS-7500 software

will integrate with

Microsoft Active Direc-

tory. LVS-7500 users

will be granted user

privileges based Micro-

soft authentication and

LVS-7500 permissions

are assigned based on

group membership in

Microscan specic

Active Directory

groups.

Below are the avail-

able LVS-7500 user

permissions. LVS-7500

operators can have a

combination of permis-

sions to allow a security

design that ts business

requirement needs.

5.2) Active directory

implementation

When Active Directory

(AD) is enabled, on each

start of the LVS-7500

software, the system

will connect over the

network to the specied

Microsoft Active Direc-

tory domain controller.

The LVS-7500 will create

a local le Operators.

dat containing all of the

LVS-7500 users and their

permissions. All of the

users created are in the

AD Group specied in the

LVS-7500 conguration

setting: ActiveDirector-

yLVSAllUsers. The user

passwords are not stored

locally in the Operators.

dat le. When a user

enters a username and

password into the LVS-

7500, the credentials are

veried with the current

user name and password

in the AD. The LVS-7500

Operator Administration

window can be used to

view the current users

and their permissions,

but the “Add new op-

erator,” “Change this op-

erator” 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 con-

trol of LVS-7500 users

provides a single, secure

record of authentica-

tion and authorization.

Control of all AD changes

is managed through AD

Group policy and owner-

ship.

6.4) Number Validation

• Any numerical order

requirements such as

ascending, descend-

ing, or algorithmic

series to ensure the

numbers are in the

expected order

• Use external data le

for the validation of

random number se-

quence

• Detects duplicate

numbers

6.5) Matching

• Matches decoded data

from a barcode to hu-

man readable text of

that barcode

• Matches multiple elds

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

le created by the user.

Note the format of the

le must be as follows:

• The format of the le

must be a comma-

separated values (CSV)

le.

• The order in which

the data is stored is

matched to the sec-

tor number in lowest

to highest order that

has been selected to

“Match to le”.

• Headers are not

allowed.

Any number of sectors

can be set to use “match

to le”. The following

shows an LVS-7500 in

design mode, editing a

job to create inspection

sectors.

This example shows

3 sectors dened,

numbered 1-3.

Below is an example

data le, showing three

columns of csv data

corresponding to the

three sectors. Sector

1 would be dened as

being unique for the job

allowing the LVS-7500

to determine when a job

was completed.
