CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC 15423-1-02

Scope

This part of ISO/IEC 15423 defines the test equipment and procedures to be used to determine the performance of bar code scanning and decoding equipment. It defines requirements in respect of techniques for the scanning and decoding of linear symbols.

It deals with bar code scanning and decoding equipment both as integrated reading systems and as discrete units.
It defines performance of the equipment in a particular configuration (e.g. a specific model) irrespective of the
individual components used. It also defines in a normative annex a means of classifying scanners and operational parameters.

NOTE Part 2 of ISO/IEC 15423 covers the requirements for the performance testing of equipment for the scanning and
decoding of two-dimensional symbols.
