Delphi Packard Character Standard For Automatic Verification

The objective of this paper is to present the development and implementation of a character standard that facilitates automatic identification of electrical center devices. The standard, designated Delphi Packard Electric Systems Engineering Specification ESA-752, has built upon the ANSI OCR-A standards with further definition for color, contrast and contrast measurement methodology. In addition, variances from the ANSI OCR-A standards for the purpose of adapting these marking schemes to electrical center devices and manufacturing systems is discussed.
