Notice!
When mounting, ensure that the scanning beam is not reflected directly back to the scanner
by the label which is being read. For further information, see the notices in chapter 6.3!:
Please refer to chapter 5.6 for the permissible minimum and maximum distances between
the BCL 504
i
and the labels to be read.

Selecting a mounting location
In order to select the right mounting location, several factors must be considered:
• Size, orientation, and position tolerance of the barcodes on the objects to be
scanned.
• The reading field of the BCL 504
i
in relation to the barcode module width.
• The resulting minimum and maximum reading distance from the respective reading
field (see chapter 5.5 "Reading field curves / optical data").
• The permissible line lengths between the BCL 504
i
and the host system depending
on which interface is used.
• The correct time for data output. The BCL 504
i
should be positioned in such a way
that, taking into consideration the time required for data processing and the conveyor
belt speed, there is sufficient time to e.g. initiate sorting operations on the basis of the
read data.
• The display and control panel should be very visible and accessible.
• For configuring and commissioning with the webConfig tool, the USB interface should
be easily accessible.
