STEP 3 - X-PRESS CONFIGURATION
The Matrix 120 models are factory calibrated at three focus positions ( 45, 70 and 125
mm for WVGA models; 45, 80 and 125 mm for MP models ). Using a 2.5 mm Hex key
(Allen wrench), rotate the Focus Adjustment Screw at the back of the reader to one of
these three positions for your application.
Refer to the Reading Diagrams in
Chapter 6, Reading Features
, which show the reading
ranges at the different focus positions for Code 128 (1D) and Data Matrix (2D) codes.
Focus/Aiming
Matrix 120™ devices provide a built-in aiming system to aid reader positioning. The aim-
ing system is accessed through the X-PRESS Interface.
1. Power the reader on. During the reader startup (reset or restart phase), all the
LEDs blink for one second. On the connector side of the reader near the cable, the
“POWER ON” LED (blue) indicates the reader is correctly powered.
2. Enter the Focus/Aim function by pressing and holding the X-PRESS push button
until the Aim LED is on.
3. Release the button to enter the Aim function. The aiming system turns on see .
4. Place an application specific code in front of the reader at the reading distance
indicated for your model as described above, centering it a few mm to the left of
the aiming system indicator as shown below.

Rapid Configuration of the Matrix 120™ reader can be made either

nection, or by using the DL.CODE Configuration Program (steps 5-6).
Select the procedure according to your needs.
