7. Select the correct reading conditions.
• Static Tuning—No maximum limit on exposure time
• Dynamic Tuning—Maximum allowable image exposure is automatically calculated using the parameters
• 1D code
• 2D code
• Include Image Filtering—Select to find the best decoding condition.
8. Click Start.
The reader begins acquiring images and adjusting the brightness and decoding settings to find a barcode and
optimize reading for the first code it finds. At the end of the procedure the Status: Completed message displays.
9. Close the Automatic Setup window.
Your reader is now optimized for decoding. Continue setting up the reader for your application as desired. Typically,
Reading Phase is configured next. See
Reading Phase
on page 38.
6.2 Advanced Setup for Manual Adjustable Focus Models
Advanced Setup provides access to the complete array of optical/illumination and code definition parameters that can be
fine-tuned semi-automatically and manually to obtain the best results for applications of any complexity. If your application
requires multiple code symbologies, multiple image settings, Code Grading, or other parameter settings for decoding, use
the Advanced Setup.
To begin configuration, correctly mount the sensor at the correct reading distance for your application so that its Field of
View (FOV) covers the application reading area.
1. From the Task Area select Open Device Configuration.
The Open Device Configuration window opens showing the list of currently saved configurations (jobs) saved on the
device. For new devices, the only saved job is the Default configuration.
2. Click OK.
The device enters run mode and begins acquiring images.
3. Place an application-specific code in front of the reader at the correct application reading distance.
4. Using a 2.5 mm hex key (Allen wrench), rotate the Focus Adjustment Screw at the back of the reader to one of the
factory calibrated positions for your application.
The factory calibrated positions are: 45, 70, and 125 mm for WVGA models; 45, 80, and 125 mm for MP models.
CAUTION: Do not rotate the Focus Adjustment Screw beyond the focus scale limits or damage
can occur to the focus mechanism.
Refer to
Reading Diagrams
on page 72, which shows the reading ranges at the different focus positions for Code
128 (1D) and Data Matrix (2D) codes.
