Bar Code Doctor uses QUALIFIER Software in the lab, and on the road To Certify and Document Compliance with A.N.S.I. Standards. To Diagnose and Correct Problem Bar Code images The Qualifier Bar Code Testing platform offers quality control professionals: Verification Data Management - A proven and complete bar code testing platform for detailed bar code quality analysis and documentation.   Statistical Process Control  (SPC) - Histograms, control charts, trending, process capability & central tendency charts make bar code analysis easy.   Product Acceptability - Scan reflectance profiles reveal overall single scan grade under ANSI standards or other quality assurance guidelines. Verification Software with A.N.S.I. Bar Code Evaluation Guidelines

Users can substantially expand bar code verification and diagnostic capability by connecting
PSC or HHP brand verification equipment to a personal computer running the QUALIFIER software.

Quick Check 650	Quick Check 500B

COMBINES: · Precision PSC or HHP Quick Check Verification Instruments, and IBM Compatible Personal Computer and Software, PROVIDES: · A Complete Bar Code Quality Control System and Testing Platform for all major bar code symbologies, standards and printing technologies.  Applied A.N.S.I. Bar Code Evaluation Guideline testing methodology for multiplescan averaging and Statistical Process Control (SPC) Procedures. STORES:  · Individual Scan records and Scan Average records (time & date stamped). GENERATES DATA BASES:  · Which are fast & flexible · (Store, Retrieve, Edit & Export) PERFORMS CENTRAL TENDENCY AND SPC FUNCTIONS: · Trend Analysis - Shows quality as improving or diminishing · Histograms - Illustrates the distribution of quality evaluation factors  · Control Charts - Determines whether quality is within an acceptable range DIAGNOSES PROBLEMS:  · Suggests how to Fix Problem Bar Codes for all major symbologies and printing processes. HELPS & GUIDES: · Contains a library of symbology, standards, and QC parameters including excerpts, definitions, and illustrations.  Includes A.N.S.I. Bar Code Evaluation Guidelines.

With the QUALIFIER software, users can: · Completely automate much of your bar code quality management program. · Track Quality of Bar Codes throughout a run or within a designated time frame. · Improve Printing Processes using SPC methodology to quickly expose problem areas. · Print Detailed Reports complete with computer generated diagnosis of problems. · Plot/Print/Display graphic analysis screens individually on most printers and plotters. · Create Custom Databases containing verification records and user definable fields. · Search, Sort, Edit & Delete customizable database records. Add notes to records. · Compare Quality of bar code images produced by various sources (display & printout). · Define and Export verification data to other popular software programs. · Easily Prepare expert quality control reports with quantitative support.

MULTIPLE SCAN GRADE PRINT-OUT ... · A.N.S.I 10-scan average grade summary includes statistical  information and uses applied A.N.S.I. bar code evaluation  guidelines · Central tendency scan averaging of up to 3500 records will   enable detailed analysis of large print runs or research and   development projects.
PROBLEM DIAGNOSIS ... · Each problem is summarized on screen, and can be   printed in the quality report. · A suggestion is made to help you take corrective   action for the problems detected
TREND GRAPHS ... · One quality characteristic can affect another    characteristic.  Operator, time (speed of printing,    energy transfer time), pressure, materials (substrates,  inks), are some of the variables that affect ANSI  quality characteristics. Changing any variable will   effect the quality of your bar code. · Trending will help you control the print   process.
HISTOGRAMS ... · Clearly illustrate the distribution of verification  samples using histograms, available with a simple  selection from the menu.
ORGANIZED INFORMATION Essential quality information provided for each record.
