    Adjustment of Barcode Scanner BCL 92 on the AM16

    The following adjustment should only be applied to the “new” Barcode Scanner BCL 92.
    The “old” BCL 22 should be adjusted as usual according to the Hamilton STAR Service Manual and
    following recommendations within the Check_Autoload macro.

    Scanner BCL 22 (old model)

    We found that the laser adjustment according to the “Service News 20210930_Update new Barcode
    Scanner BCL 92” lead to “short reads” of Interleaved 2 of 5 barcodes. The “old” BCL 22 does not have
    such problems. We wanted to share another adjustment we found to be quite reliable for Code 128 as
    well as Interleaved 2/5.

    Note: Although we do not recommend the use of Code 2 of 5 Interleaved, it is still commonly used in
    many laboratories. If your customer uses Interleaved 2/5 barcodes, please adjust the BCL 92
    Scanner as described in the recommendation below.

    To prevent an interference, it is important that the red laser beam and the red dot from the cup sensor
    do not overlap.

    After performing an adjustment on the BCL Barcode Scanner run the Check_Autoload and
    Check_Tube_Presence_Sensor macro.

    The UltimateLabelCheck_v4.0 Method can be used to ensure that the Barcode Scanner can read
    barcodes properly on reagent containers, tubes and the customers sample tubes.
