Looking for suggestions on establishing a calibration frequency for the calibration test card used with a Microscan UID (2D matrix) reader. The calibration test card has a part number & serial number and dated certification traceable to NIST. When asked about recommended calibration frequency, the Microscan rep said we should replace the card if it gets damaged or dirty. How do I put that into a calibration system?

Not really following you here...

The card should be treated as any other low cost reference standard or cal tool; keep it clean, dry and properly stored. If it's damaged, replace it.

As far as putting it into a cal system, I don't think it needs special attention.

You're also asking about frequency; the supplier didn't answer your question, but what they're implying is "We don't calibrate these things. Just buy another one".

Sorry, this new territory for me and I have no hands-on experience with how the calibration test card is actually used. I get the impression that the card can be compared to hardness tester blocks, that is- unless it gets damaged, it remains calibrated. My confusion is in not knowing if the scanner camera readings are compared to what the card says it is or if the scanner/camera gets adjusted to match the information on the card.
I sure appreciate your patience with this UID novice.

If the camera or scanner is off, it wouldn't make sense to have the card changed to match it. Without knowing more about the brand of equipment or the degree of accuracy we're talking about, it's hard to offer much more.
