AV7000 LINEAR CAMERA
Focusing Devices
There are six focusing device options available for the AV7000 Camera, see section Five
for details.
Photoelectric Sensor
The Datalogic Photoelectric Sensor is used in AV7000 camera systems to detect the
presence of an item entering the scanning area.
The photoelectric sensor is used in singulated systems where the packages are sepa-
rated by an open space between the trailing edge of one package and the leading edge
of the next. In irregular package applications, the photoelectric sensor assists in main-
taining the package footprint so that the AV7000 camera will only scan and provide data
for a specific package.
Depending on the application, these devices may need to be configured differently.
While the photoelectric sensor and tachometer work well with belt conveyors, a special
configuration is needed for tilt-tray and cross-belt sorter applications.
