Installation of the bar code scanner
5.4.1
Installing the bar code scanner
1. Prepare the base for the installation of the bar code scanner holder (see
).
2. Place the object with the bar code at the designated position where the reading should
be taken in the bar code scanner's visual range (no conveyor movement).
3. Visually align the bar code scanner to the bar code. Observe the following:
– When using the bar code scanner with front reading window, ensure that the narrow
reverse side of the device with the laser warning sign is facing the viewer and is ap-
proximately parallel to the bar code surface.
– When using the bar code scanner with side reading window, respectively the line
scanner with oscillating mirror, ensure that the wide side panel with the LEDs is fa-
cing the viewer and is approximately parallel with the bar code surface.
– During the reading process, consider the reading angle (see
alignment of the bar code scanner, page 47
).
– If the bar code's position within the scanning line is relevant for the evaluation, ob-
serve the reading angle's counting direction (see
chapter 5.3.5 Counting direction
of the reading angle and code angle, page 48
4. Installing the bar code scanner holder on the base.
5. Screw M5 bolts through the holder and into the bar code scanner's blind hole taps and
gently tighten them.
6. Adjust the bar code scanner (see
chapter 7.6.1 Adjusting the bar code scanner,
).
Damage to the device!
The maximum thread reach of the two blind hole taps M5 is 5 mm (0.2 in). Longer bolts will
damage the device.
Use bolts of a suitable length.
