Distance between the CLV490 and the object
Basic alignment between the CLV490 and the bar code
Depending on the application, the line scanner or line scanner with oscillating mirror versions
of the CLV490 is used.
shows how the device is aligned with the bar code on the
object for each of the two scanning methods.
Reading distance from the object and aperture angle
α
The distance between the reading window of the CLV490 and the objects must not exceed
the technical limits. The height of the reading field is shown as a function of the reading
distance for various resolutions (module widths) depending on the CLV490 type in
Chapter 10.2 Specification diagrams, Page 10-1
shows the definition of the reading distance "a" (radial measured) from the reading
window and of the aperture angle
α
each of the two scanning methods.
The useful aperture angle is typically
56
°
for the line scanner and max.
50
°
for the line scan-
ner with oscillating mirror. Due to the V-principle of beam deflection, the reading field height
(for evaluating the useful length of the scan line) depends on the readling distance.
