2.4.2 Physical Support Requirements
For details on the weight of the barcode readers,
see Chapter 8, Technical Features.
Multiple-head systems may include further details on the physical support requirements with
any application-specific documentation provided.
2.4.3 Vibration Limitations
See Chapter 8, Technical Features.
2.4.4 General Mounting Guidelines
It is important that you follow these general precautions when installing, setting up, operating,
maintaining, troubleshooting, or replacing any Datalogic products, parts or related
equipment.
As you plan and install your AV7000 camera imaging system application, be sure to keep the
following guidelines in mind:

Follow application drawings for structural details and barcode reader placement.

Determine the proper orientation and position of the barcode reader(s).

Leave adequate clearances (approximately 300 mm [12 in]) for wiring.

The first camera in the system must be installed at least 254 mm [10 in] upstream from
the focus device (DM3610, RangeFinder, or light curtain) to work properly.

Route wires carefully to reduce or minimize electrical noise. When power and
communication wiring must cross, make their intersection perpendicular. Avoiding sharp
wire bends or loops, which can affect performance.

Proper grounding limits the effects of noise due to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI).
2.4.5 Mounting Structure Considerations
Your first task is to mount your AV7000 camera. You can provide your own mounting
structure or Datalogic can design one for you. We recommend using a Datalogic mounting
structure for standard applications.
Your mounting structure must provide the following capabilities:

It is adjustable enough for you to move your unit to the optimum position for proper
scanning.

It allows a technician access to the barcode reader while it is mounted.

It must be as vibration free as possible so as not to affect the scanning accuracy.

It is constructed of steel or aluminum.
