Configuring the Lector64/65x Dynamic Focus manually
1.
In the
Online Image
window, click the
Live
button.

Auto-Setup
wizard, the following functions are
deactivated:
•
Digital inputs and outputs
•
Data output via the host interface
2.

Auto Setup
window, click on the
Code Reading
button.
✓
The
Initial Setup
window appears.
4.
Position the code within the displayed region and following the instructions.
✓
The effects of any parameter changes are directly visible.
✓
The device uses the Auto-Setup function to adjust itself automatically to suit
the working distance, lighting conditions, and quality of the code presented (not
applicable to Pharmacode). If the read is successful, these settings can be saved
directly.
5.
If refocusing is required during operation due to lens changes: to specify to the
device the focus height per object, connect a profile measuring sensor (e.g. MLG
or VMS) upstream to the device.
6.
For custom optimization of the image and code settings of the device, click the
Camera & Illumination
and
Codes
configuration bars on the right and adjust the
parameter values.

Variants with compact C-mount lens: Adjusting the brightness and sharpness
1.
Remove the optics protective hood.
2.
Loosen the lock nut fitting on the lens or on the mask ring and sharpness ring.
3.
Set the aperture ring (upper ring) on the lens unit to a value of 8, which is an
appropriate starting value. To increase the depth of field (value > 8) or the image
quality (value < 8), this value may need to be adjusted in conjunction with the
online image display.
4.
Adjust the focus to the approximate actual working distance of the device from the
test code using the focus ring (lower ring) on the top side of the lens so that the
online image shows a sharp, clear image of the test code with no distortion.
