The operation of Matchcode when using the Master Database

[Omron Forums Support]

Every symbol decoded will run through the database. - If the symbol is in the database, it is a Match. - If the symbol is not in the database, it is a Mismatch. At the end of the read cycle, there is only ONE result, which will be (in the order of priority): - If ANY symbols are not decoded (the number of symbols required is set in the Multisymbol option, under Read Cycle), the read cycle result is Noread. - If ANY symbols do not match the database, the result is Mismatch. - If ALL symbols are decoded, and they are in the database, the result is Match. Each of the three outputs can be programmed for one of these events, and in some cases, a combination of these events. Also note that in most readers, when Matchcode is enabled, there is no more ‘good read’. Settings that say ‘Good Read’ now mean ‘Match’.
