1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The DS6400 is a high performance laser scanner in a complete range of industrial bar code readers offering an innovative and modular solution in terms of reading performance, connectivity and maintenance, in addition to a completely new hardware and software platform.
The DS6400 has been specifically designed for simple installation, easy use and flexibility.
An innovative mechanical design together with the Datalogic patented Step-a-Head TM feature make it possible to rotate the reader head and the decoder base independently from each other. Step-a-Head TM enables the DS6400 to always be installed in the ideal position, by modifying the orientation of the connector panel while leaving the laser window in the desired position. The need for space is minimized and installation is easier.
The DS6400 has an innovative linear motor designed to control the focus position of the scanner via software. This dynamic system, called FLASH TM , is able to move the focus position rail to rail, from the minimum position to the maximum position, in less than 10 msec.
In typical applications, where a DOF <1 meter is required, the focus position is adjusted in 4 msec.
The DS6400 can read all most popular barcodes even in the most difficult conditions, thanks to a new generation decoder and code reconstruction technology (ACR™ 4).
This reader is also offered in a model with an integrated SW programmable oscillating mirror.
Great attention has been given to built-in connectivity for market standards. A Local
Lonworks network for scanner connectivity (all versions), and a Fieldbus network (Ethernet,
DeviceNet, or Profibus) for host connectivity (dedicated versions) have been integrated in the decoder base.
Some of the main features of DS6400 are listed below:
scanning speed up to 1200 scans/sec;
2 serial communication interfaces
reading all popular codes;
supply voltage from 15 to 30 Vdc;
electrical connection through connectors;
high speed Lonworks connectivity for Master/Slave layout;
Fieldbus models (Ethernet, Profibus) with built-in connectivity;
programmable in several different operating modes to suit the most various barcode reading system requirements;
light source: solid state laser diode; the light emitted has a wavelength between
630~680nm.
IP64 protection class of the enclosure (IP50 for older RJ45 Ethernet models).

1.4 OSCILLATING MIRROR MODELS
Oscillating mirror models are used when coverage of a large reading area is required, mainly in picket fence applications.
The DS6400 scanner mounts a dedicated optic head with integrated oscillating mirror driven by a linear motor. The speed, the precision, the repeatability, and the reliability of this driving technology assure high level performance.
The oscillating mirror is completely software controlled and software programmable. The
Genius™ software tool allows adjusting the linear motor speed (oscillating frequency) and the upper and lower limits of the oscillation by defining the top and bottom line limit angles.
When the oscillating mirror is programmed to read barcode labels at very small angles,
position the reader to assure at least 10° for the Skew angle (see par. 2.3). This angle refers
to the most inclined or external laser line, so that all other laser lines assure more than 10°
Skew. This avoids the direct reflection of the laser light emitted by the reader.

1.7 AUTO PACKTRACK™ CALIBRATION FOR READING STATION
USING SCANNER MENU
1.7.1 Auto PackTrack Conditions and Limits
The Conditions and Limits for Auto PackTrack Calibration are summarized here for convenience and are also integrated into the following procedure descriptions:
The following scanners are supported by Auto PackTrack Calibration: DS6400 (*see note below), DX6400 (*see note below), DS8100A, DX8200A.
Before performing the Auto PackTrack Calibration procedure, if a system reset or power reset is performed, wait for all the scanners to be available (up to 60 sec.) before proceeding.
Operating Mode of the Master must be either PackTrack or Continuous.
Code 128 codes must be enabled on the Master with Label Length set to variable.
If the system Presence Sensor and Encoder are used, the correct Encoder Step value must be set on the Master and the Presence Sensor must be connected to the
CBX100/500 Input 1.
If instead the PPA-8000 Photocell Array is used, it must be connected to the CBX100/500
I1 and I2 inputs, the following parameters must be disabled on the Master: Physical
Encoder for PackTrack or Use Encoder for Continuous, and the Encoder, if present,
must be physically disconnected.
DX scanners which are calibrated automatically cannot be automatically replaced by DX scanners with a previous sw version (earlier than 6.80). You must either update the old scanner software prior to substitution, or complete the calibration manually, after installation, by setting the PSOffset and Direction parameters.
NOTE
The autofocus feature of DS6400 and DX6400 scanners makes Auto
PackTrack Calibration difficult, therefore to assure that the procedure can correctly calibrate these scanners, it is necessary to set a fixed focus value which allows the scanner to read all the label positions useful for its calibration.

1.7.2 Auto PackTrack Parameter Descriptions
Menu Branch Note
PackTrack Automatic Packtrack Calibration procedure for the
Reading Station
Select the version number of the PCT-8000 pack
Cal XYZ calibration is forced.
Start
Set the zero point of the X-axis (4 digits in mm)
Set the distance (3 digits in mm) between the photocells in the photocell array.
If the system Presence Sensor and Encoder are used, set this parameter to 0.
Start the Auto PackTrack procedure
Set a correction factor for the pack height (3 digits in mm)
The Auto PackTrack procedure when run from the scanner keypad, requires a system reset before the calibration is recognized. See the Auto PackTrack Setup procedure.
Version: the version of the PCT-8000 being used for calibration. This value can be read from the barcode labels on the PCT-8000. Each label has the value vnnn where v is the version number.
Cal Type: the XYZ calibration is forced. The coordinates for the three axes are calibrated.
NOTE
For Oscillating Mirror models the scan line must be parallel to the conveyor direction and only the Y calibration will be performed, (the X and Z axes will automatically be set to zero).
X Cal: the Absolute X position is forced. The X coordinate for all scanners is relative to the precise point (PackTrack Reference Point X, Y, Z = 0).
X Offset: The X Offset moves the Absolute X coordinate (X, Y, Z= 0) for all the scanners to
the desired point along the X axis which will be measured in step 7 in par. 1.7.3.
Sensor: calibration will be performed either using the system Presence Sensor and Encoder
(most cases), or the PPA-8000 Photocell Array, for systems where the Presence Sensor or
Encoder are not present (typically Tilt-Tray or Cross-Belt applications).
NOTE
The Auto PackTrack procedure requires using the PPA-8000 Photocell
Array for all systems where either the Presence Sensor or the Encoder are absent (including Continuous Operating Mode and Cargoscan applications).
If using the Presence Sensor and Encoder, the presence sensor must be connected to the CBX100/500 Input 1 and in this menu Sensor is set to 0. The scanners Encoder Step parameter must also be set correctly.
If using the PPA-8000, in this menu you must set Sensor (the Photocell distance) to 165
mm. The Photocell Array must be connected to the CBX100/500 I1 and I2 inputs (see the relative installation manual), and the Encoder, if present, must be disconnected.

2. Press the ENT (enter) key to confirm the action. The Master scanner sends the message to the Slave scanners and the Display shows the Wait message.
After receiving the answer from all of the Slaves, the Master scanner shows the status of each node (of each scanner of the cluster) as in the example below.
I I I U I I I I
A B C D E F G H
The slave scanners are listed on the second line as letters (A, B, C, etc.).
On the first line above each scanner position a symbol indicates the scanner status according to the following convention:
U cannot be calibrated
U can be calibrated
L Lost cannot be calibrated because not supported by scanner software version can be calibrated but the calibration procedure fails either barcode reading or verification scanner stops responding during the procedure
I Initial State scanner ready to be calibrated
N Not Verified scanner calibrated but not verified
C Calibrated scanner
NOTE
If the network is made up of more than 16 slaves, you can use the ▲ (up arrow) key to toggle between the lines.
3. At this point the Master scanner display allows to Continue or to Stop the procedure.
You can switch between the previous display windows using the ▲ (up arrow) key.
If there are any nodes that show as U or L, then you should Stop the procedure and correct the problem.
If the nodes respond with I, N, or C then you can Continue with the procedure.
4. Press the ENT (enter) key to Continue the procedure. The Master scanner shows message Let the parcel run.
5. Place the PCT-8000 onto the moving conveyor, before the PS Line (reference point) and parallel to a conveyor edge (i.e. right-hand edge) with its arrow in the same direction as the conveyor movement. Let it pass through the reading station. The
Master scanner shows the Wait message.

2 INSTALLATION
To install the system follow the given procedure:
1. Select the mounting location for DS6400;
2. Mount the DS6400 scanner;
3. Position the scanner with respect to the barcode;
4. Proceed with system electrical connection;
5. Install the Genius™ program on the PC and configure the scanner.
6. Set the Flash™ dynamic focus by means of the Genius™ software tool.
WARNING
When installing several scanners, take care to position them correctly so that no laser beam enters the reading window perpendicularly and at the same level of the output beam of the other scanners. This condition could occur more frequently for side mounted applications. If these precautions are not followed, it may occur that the laser of the blinded scanner starts blinking due to an internal circuit which temporarily turns the laser off when detecting a power anomaly. To resolve this problem, it is sufficient to slightly change the inclination and position of one of the two scanners involved.
NOTE
Refer to the Reference Documentation for details on connecting your
DS6400 reader to other devices in the system (i.e. CBX100 etc.).

2.2 MECHANICAL MOUNTING
2.2.1 Mounting the Scanner
The DS6400 reader can be positioned and installed in the best way possible as a result of the patented Step-a-Head™ feature. Thanks to the separation between Head and Base, you can modify the orientation of the decoder base, and therefore display-keypad and connector panels, while keeping the optic head in the correct reading position. The reading head and the decoder base can be rotated independently from each other allowing the installation even in the most critical locations.
Head Screws
Fixing Screw (4)
Figure 10 - Step-A-Head™ Feature
To rotate the head follow the given procedure:
1. detach the head from the base by unscrewing the four fixing screws;
2. rotate the head in the desired position;
3. loosen but don't remove the two screws on top of the head;
4. affix the head onto the base carefully aligning the four fixing screws and progressively tightening them about half-way;
5. completely tighten the two screws on top of the head;
6. completely tighten the four fixing screws.

2.3 POSITIONING THE SCANNER
The DS6400 reader is able to decode moving barcode labels at a variety of angles, however significant angular distortion may degrade reading performance.
When mounting DS6400 take into consideration these three ideal label position angles:
Pitch 0°, Skew 10° to 30° and Tilt 0°.
Follow the suggestions for the best orientation:
The Pitch angle is represented by the value P in Figure 19. Position the reader in order to
minimize the Pitch angle.
P
Figure 19 - "Pitch" Angle
The Skew angle is represented by the value S in Figure 20. Position the reader to assure at
least 10° for the Skew angle. This avoids the direct reflection of the laser light emitted by the scanner.
For oscillating mirror models, this angle refers to the most inclined or external laser line, so that all other laser lines assure more than 10° Skew.
Figure 20 - "Skew" Angle
S
22
INSTALLATION
The Tilt angle is represented by the value T in Figure 21.

2
Figure 21 - "Tilt" Angle
2.3.1 16° Skew Positioning
The DS6400 scanner is mounted on the ST-237 106° mounting bracket (see Figure 12)
which guarantees a built-in Skew angle (S in the figure below) of 16° with respect to the frame plane (typically the Skew angle should be between 10° - 20°). This avoids the direct reflection of the laser light emitted by the scanner. Furthermore, the bracket guides allow adjusting the Tilt angle (T in the figure below, which is typically 0°) for the best scanner orientation:

2.3.2 45° Skew Positioning
The DS6400 scanner is mounted on the ST-210 90° mounting bracket (see Figure 14). By
adjusting the mounting bracket guides, reach 45° for the Skew angle (S in the figure below) to avoid the direct reflection of the laser light emitted by the scanner:
45°

Figure 23 – 45° Skew Installation
CAUTION
If using the 45° Skew installation, the scanner reading performance is not guaranteed to match that measured for the standard installation with Skew
angle between 10° - 20° (see reading diagrams in par. 9.5).
The ST-210 mounting bracket is an accessory of the DS6300 standard model available in the US-60 kit (890001020).

The power must be between 15 and 30 Vdc only. The max. power consumption is 24 W including startup current.
Datalogic strongly recommends a minimum 24 Vdc supply voltage when using a master/slave configuration. Several accessory power supplies are available to power the
DS6400 and reading station components. See par. 1.8.
A security system allows the laser to activate only once the motor has reached the correct rotational speed; consequently, the laser beam is generated after a slight delay from the power on of the scanner.
DS6400 scanners have power ground GND (25/26-pin connector pin 23, 25, 26) as well as the cable Shield (25/26-pin connector pin 1) internally connected to the chassis. It is recommended to connect the device chassis to earth ground (Earth) by setting the appropriate jumper in the CBX connection box. See the CBX Installation Manual for details.
3.2 MAIN SERIAL INTERFACE
The main serial interface is compatible with the following electrical standards and the relative signals are available on the CBX spring clamp terminal blocks:
RS232
RS485 full-duplex
RS485 half-duplex
The main interface type and the relative parameters (baud rate, data bits, etc.) can be set using the Genius™ utility program or the Genius™ based Host Mode Programming procedure. For more details refer to the section "Main Serial Port" in the Genius™

NOTE
This interface is provided for backward compatibility. We recommend using the more efficient Lonworks network for Master/Slave or Multiplexer layouts.
The RS485 half-duplex (3 wires + shield) interface is used for polled communication protocols.
It can be used for Multidrop connections with a Datalogic Multiplexer, (see par. "Multiplexer"
in Appendix A) exploiting a proprietary protocol based on polled mode called MUX32 protocol, where a master device polls slave devices to collect data. The overall maximum cable length should not exceed 1200 m (3940 ft).
If the shield is tied to ground at the Host, then leave it floating at the CBX. If it is floating at the Host then tie it to Shield at the CBX.

ECHO to a monitoring PC or for Pass through layouts. This interface is active when the Data
Tx parameter is enabled.
The parameters relative to the aux interface (baud rate, data bits, etc.) can be defined using the Genius™ utility program or Genius™ based Host Mode Programming installed from the
CD-ROM.
The 9-pin female Auxiliary Interface connector inside the CBX is the preferred connector for device configuration or temporary communication monitoring.

If permanent system wiring is required, the following pins are used to connect the RS232 auxiliary interface. The overall maximum cable length should not exceed 15 m (50 ft). In this case it is advisable to use shielded cables. If the shield is tied to ground at the Host, then leave it floating at the CBX. If it is floating at the Host then tie it to Shield at the CBX.

3.4 INPUTS
There are four optocoupled polarity insensitive inputs available on the scanner: Input 1
(External Trigger/PS), Input 2 (Encoder), Input 3 and 4 generic inputs.
The electrical features of the inputs are:
Maximum voltage: 30 Vdc
Maximum current Input 1 and 2: 12 mA (scanner) + 12 mA (CBX)
Maximum current Input 3 and 4: 12 mA (scanner)

-V Power Reference - External Trigger
The active state of all the inputs is selected in software (open or closed). Refer to the
Genius™ Help On Line.
All inputs are optocoupled, polarity insensitive, and driven by a constant current generator; the command signal is filtered through an anti-disturbance circuit which generates a debouncing delay which can be set to 5 ms or 500 s. In particular, I1 for PS, I3 and I4 share the same value which usually corresponds to 5 ms when using a photoelectric sensor, while
I2 is set to 500 s when this input is used for the Encoder. The maximum Encoder frequency is 2 kHz.
Input 1 (External Trigger/PS) is used in the On-Line and PackTrack™ operating Modes and
tells the scanner to scan for a code. The yellow Phase On LED (Figure C, 3) which refers to
Input 1 is on only when current flows through the input circuit and therefore when the active state of this input is set to "active open", the LED lights up when the input corresponds to
OFF.
Input 2 is normally used for the Encoder input. In PackTrack™ mode, it detects the conveyor speed.
Inputs 3 and 4 can be used as the stop signal for the reading phase.
The debouncing delay value can be changed through the software parameter Debouncing for
Input x, see the "6-8 K Software Configuration Parameter Guide” or Help file.
Powering Inputs
Input devices can be supplied by either scanner power (V+ and V-) or external power supplies (Vext).
Electrical isolation between the input command logic and the scanner is maintained when powering the input devices from an external supply voltage (Vext).

The driving logic of the input signals may be powered, for convenience, with the voltage supply at the CBX terminal block spring clamps (V+) and (V-). In this case, however, the device is no longer electrically isolated. The voltage available on pins V+ and V-, is physically the same as the input power for the scanner (Vdc and GND).

3.4.1 Code
If the DS6400 is used as a Code Verifier, the verifier code can be configured in software through the Genius™ configuration program. However it is also possible to use one of the inputs to trigger when the scanner should store a code read as the verifier code.
The Code Verifier parameter must be enabled, and the configuration parameters to allow correct Code Type reading must be saved to the scanner in order to read the verifier code.
When the selected input is activated, the next read code will be stored as the verifier code in the scanner's non-volatile (Flash) memory.
For more details see the Verifier Parameters in the "6-8 K Software Configuration Parameter
Guide” or Help file.

4.1 POWER SUPPLY
The supply voltage for correct operation of the scanner must be between 15 and 30 VDC.
The max. power consumption is 24 W including startup current.
Datalogic strongly recommends a minimum 24 Vdc supply voltage when using a master/slave configuration. Several accessory power supplies are available to power the
DS6400 and reading station components. See par. 1.8.
A security system allows the laser to activate only once the motor has reached the correct rotational speed; consequently, the laser beam is generated after a slight delay from the power on of the scanner.
DS6400 scanners have power ground GND (25/26-pin connector pin 23, 25, 26) as well as the cable Shield (25/26-pin connector pin 1) internally connected to the chassis.

This interface is provided for backward compatibility. We recommend using the more efficient Lonworks network for Master/Slave or Multiplexer layouts.
The RS485 half-duplex (3 wires + shield) interface can be used for polled communication protocols.
It can be used for Multidrop connections with a Datalogic Multiplexer, (see par. "Multiplexer"
in Appendix A) exploiting a proprietary protocol based on polled mode called MUX32 protocol, where a master device polls slave devices to collect data. The overall maximum cable length should not exceed 1200 m (3940 ft).

CAUTION
Do not connect an RS232 port to the 9-pin Lonworks Connector. This may
damage your Laptop PC.
The local network used by DS6400 exploits a Lonworks standard communication system requiring only two wires (polarity insensitive) to enable a connection. The connector also provides a positive and a negative supplying wire. In this way, all the slave readers can be powered by the master through the Datalogic standard cables.
When working in applications requiring enhanced synchronization capabilities, the DS6400 master reader (output) transmits two system signals named Sys_I/O and Sys_Enc_I/O to the slave readers (input). For example, when working with applications requiring an encoder the signal is received by the master and directly transmitted to the slaves through the cable.
The internal circuits generating the system signals are externally supplied by means of the
VS_I/O and REF_I/O pins and are isolated from the reader supply voltage.
The use of these system circuits is not required in all the operating modes. Anyway, for correct system functioning it is suggested to use Datalogic cables and accessories and follow
the description of the typical layouts (see chapter 7 for details).

5.1 NETWORK TERMINATION
When building a Lonworks system the network must be properly terminated by positioning the BT-6000 Lonworks terminator in the DS6400 master reader and in the last DS6400 slave reader.
Each side of the terminator provides a different connector; thus, it can be inserted either into the Lonworks 9-pin male connector of the master reader or in the Lonworks 9-pin female connector of the last slave reader:
Slave Master
Female
Male
Male

Figure 71 - BT-6000 Network Terminator
NOTE
For Fieldbus models (Ethernet, DeviceNet, or Profibus), no terminator must be inserted in the reader, since it is internally integrated.
5.2 LONWORKS INTERFACE
The Lonworks network is used for both input and output connection to build a multi-sided or omni-station system connecting several readers.
The DS6400 master usually employs the 9-pin female connector for output connection to the first slave, while the 9-pin male connector is terminated by inserting the BT-6000 terminator
(see Figure 71 for details). If creating a T-network configuration, it is necessary to use both
connectors to create the double branch line of slave readers.
Both connectors are always employed when connecting together the slave readers. In particular, the 9-pin female connector is used for output connection and the male one for input connection. The female connector in the last slave reader is terminated by the BT-6000 to close the system network.

TYPICAL LAYOUTS
7
DS6400 scanners are mainly designed to work together on a high performance Lonworks sub-network to create multi-sided and omnidirectional reading stations that can interface with
Serial or Fieldbus Host networks. This chapter covers the most common Lonworks layouts.
DS6400 scanners can however, be connected in a variety of layouts depending on the number of scanners used and the required complexity of the reading station. Layouts range from single Stand Alone to complex alternative networks when Lonworks is not available for
all readers (mixed reader networks). For alternative layouts see appendix A.
Several power supplies are available to power the reading stations.
Photoelectric sensors used as code presence sensors and optical encoders to signal conveyor speed are also available accessories.
The following typical layouts refer to the system hardware configurations, but they also
require the correct setup of the software configuration parameters (see par. 8.2 for details).
The accessories and cables indicated in the following figures are Datalogic products. We suggest their use to guarantee the correct system functioning.
7.1 LOCAL LONWORKS NETWORK
A local Lonworks network allows logically connecting a DS6400 master reader with up to 31
DS6400 slaves. Actually, the maximum number of readers to be employed in the network depends on the system operating conditions; that is, adopted operating mode and amount of data stream.
When creating your network, always keep in mind the following guidelines:
the Lonworks network logically supports a maximum number of 32 devices (master + slaves);
it is recommended to adhere to the 8-in-16 rule (not more than 8 devices in any 16 meter bus segment (branch);
for DS6400 scanners the total bus length may extend up to 130 m (426 ft);
the maximum number of DS6400 readers supported also depends on the type of power propagation adopted by the system (see the specific power supply installation manual for details).
Typically the layouts can be divided into Synchronized (single P.S.) or Multidata (multi P.S.) networks. They can be small (up to 10 scanners) or large (more than 10 scanners).
Contact Datalogic Automation S.r.l., if your network requires a higher number of readers or in case the application throughput is very high.
For further information on Lonworks network cabling and connections see the “LonWorks®
TPT Twisted Pair Transceiver Module User’s Guide”, available from the website: www.echelon.com.

NOTE
For some DS6400 Lonworks Network layouts, power is propagated through the 9-pin scanner connectors. A specific jumper setting is required in CBXs to pass scanner power to the presence sensor, encoder, etc.
7.1.1 Small Synchronized Network
When building a small local Lonworks network (less than 10 scanners), the DS6400 master reader must be connected to a local host computer or a CBX connection box by means of a cable connected to the 25/26-pin D-sub male connector.
The master reader connects to the first slave reader of the system through the local
Lonworks 9-pin female connector. For Master/Slave models, the local Lonworks 9-pin male connector must be properly terminated by inserting the BT-6000 Lonworks terminator.
Fieldbus models (Ethernet, DeviceNet, or Profibus), are internally terminated.
The slave readers are connected together through the local Lonworks connectors. Only the
9-pin female connector of the last slave reader must be terminated by the BT-6000 Lonworks terminator.
The presence sensor is connected and powered through the CBX by the scanner and is unique to the system. There is only a single reading phase and a single message from the master reader to the Local Host. The On-Line operating mode is used for this layout.

7.1.2 Multidata
In this layout, one master and up to 7 DS6400 slave readers have their own P.S. and therefore multiple reading phases. Each P.S. is connected through a CBX100, which in turn is connected to its relative scanner through a CAB-Sxx cable.
Typically these systems are reading stations which are located relatively far away from each other and are therefore usually each powered separately. In this case, the Lonworks network must use CAB-611x "no power" cables.
The master sends all the individual messages collected from the Lonworks interface as well as its own to the Local Host through its CBX100.

7.1.3 Fieldbus
The Fieldbus models (Ethernet, DeviceNet, or Profibus) offer connectivity without any converter or adapter needed.
The DS6400 Lonworks master communicates as a Fieldbus slave to a remote host (i.e. remote PC connected via Internet or PLC Fieldbus Master) by means of a cable connected to the Fieldbus connector provided. It can be activated by a signal generated by the remote
Host or by a physical presence sensor.
The external signals (trigger, encoder) are connected to the master through the CBX100.
The entire system is powered by the PWR-240 where:
Power is distributed through two CAB-63xx cables to avoid excessive current draw.
The master is connected to the CBX100 through the CAB-F0x, and provides power to the
PS and Encoder.
Since the master DS6400 is a Fieldbus model, it is internally terminated. The last slave
DS6400 is terminated with the BT-6000.
The master connects directly to the remote host through its Fieldbus interface.

Figure 92 - On Line Mode Selection
This operating mode causes the reader to be connected to an external Presence Sensor using I1A and I1B (External Trigger/PS) inputs.
During the active phase of the presence sensor, the DS6400 reader tries to acquire and correctly decode the code.
In case the decoding phase is successful, the barcode characters are transmitted on the serial interface. Otherwise, a no read message is sent.
Automatic Operating Mode
Figure 93 - Automatic Mode Selection
This operating mode does not require the connection to an external Presence Sensor.
When working in this mode the reader is continuously scanning. The reading phase is activated each time a barcode enters the reading zone. The reader stops reading after an N number of scans without a code. Barcode characters are transmitted on the serial interface.
In case of a failed reading phase no message is sent to the host computer.

8.2.2 Genius™ Network Setup Through Master
Network Setup allows configuring your Local Lonworks Network through the Master using
Genius™.
Three different procedures are available to define the number of network slave scanners, their label and address according to two main conditions:
Unknown Slave Addresses Net-Autoset
Known Slave Addresses Network Wizard
Express Network Setup automatically assigns random addresses to slave or Stand Alone scanners. customizes the network (slave label and address definition and physical identification of a specific slave within network), updates configuration to a file and makes it ready to be sent to the Master. automatically performs all the operations of the Network Wizard apart from the physical identification of a specific slave scanner.
NOTE
The Network Setup procedure as described requires Genius™ software version 1.06 or later. In addition, the Net-Autoset procedure requires scanner software version 6.40 or later.
1. The first operation to perform is the configuration of your scanner as "Master" from the
Local Device Network Settings item in the Device Menu, see figure below:
72
Figure 94 – Local Device Network Settings

The following dialog box appears asking whether to send the configuration to the Local
Device or not:
2. Click the "Yes" button, then click on the icon available on the Toolbar to make the
“Devices” area appear next to the Parameter Explorer window. By repeatedly clicking the icon this area will be displayed or hidden.
Figure 95 – Cluster Configuration
Each scanner of the cluster is indicated by the following graphical objects:
check box allowing to select/deselect a specific scanner to perform the desired operations (i.e. program downloading); icon representing the scanner status; a label reporting information transmitted by the scanner when connected (the scanner address, generated errors, scanner description).

DS6400 REFERENCE MANUAL
3. Then, proceed with the network setup by using one of the icons available on the Tool
Bar according to the procedure to follow:
= Net-Autoset procedure
= Network Wizard procedure
= Express Network Setup procedure
Net-Autoset
This procedure is to be used when all scanner addresses and labels are unknown (typically when configuring the network for the first time or whenever a network reconfiguration is required).
By clicking the icon or selecting the "Net_Autoset" option from the right-click menu, the
Net-Autoset procedure is started allowing automatic assignment of random addresses to all slave or Stand Alone scanners connected within the network.
Once the procedure has been completed, it is possible to:
define customized addresses and labels through the Network Wizard;
display the scanner default labels through the Express Network Setup.
Express Network Setup
Before performing this procedure, a Lonworks address must be assigned to each slave scanner. The most practical method is through the
alternative address assignment methods.
Once all addresses have been assigned, the Express Network Setup is to be used when all scanner addresses and labels do not need to be modified.
By clicking on the icon or by choosing the related option from the right-click menu, the procedure is started which automatically performs the following operations:
- polling the network to discover connected scanners;
- transferring all scanners found to the "Requested Devices" area of the wizard where your network customization is defined;
- saving the new network configuration;
Once the procedure has been completed, a dialog box will appear asking whether to send the configuration to the Master. Choose the “Yes” option to start this procedure.

Once all addresses have been assigned, the Network Wizard is to be used when one or more scanner addresses and labels need to be modified.
1. Click on the button to open the Network Wizard dialog box: a. if the slave scanners have already been configured and wired to the network, click on the Autodetect button to start a polling procedure of the current network. All slave scanners found will be represented in the “Current Devices” area. Then, select the desired slave scanner from the “Current Devices” area and click on the icon (or drag and drop) to transfer it to the “Requested Devices” area where your network customization is defined. The following dialog box will appear allowing (if necessary) to change the slave address ("Available Device" field) and label ("Description" field): b. if the slave scanners have not been configured and wired to the network, click on the
icon to add a new device defining its address and model. The added slave scanner will be displayed in the “Requested Devices” area. This option in any case requires that all slave scanners have their address set before the network can function.

DS6400 REFERENCE MANUAL
2. If desired, select a slave scanner within the "Current Devices" area and click on the icon (or select the "Show Device" option from the right-click menu) to make the dialog box appear as follows:
The "Show Device" option is particularly useful after the Net-Autoset procedure or whenever it is necessary to know which address is assigned to a specific slave scanner. Indeed, it activates the following signals which physically indicate the scanner corresponding to the one selected, in particular:
in Network Wizard the icon corresponding to the selected slave scanner starts blinking red; in the Physical Network all slave scanner lasers turn off except the one of the selected scanner which turns on.
3. If desired, select the transferred/added slave scanner within the “Requested Devices” area and click on the icon to customize the scanner label and address.
4. Once your network has been customized, close the network wizard. Before closure, the program will show a dialog box asking whether to send the new configuration to the Master. Choose the “Yes” option to start this procedure.

9.1 DS6400 FLASH™ DYNAMIC FOCUS
The DS6400 has an innovative linear motor designed to control the focus position of the scanner via software. This dynamic system, called FLASH™, is able to move the focus position rail to rail, from the minimum position to the maximum position.
The FLASH™ functionalities are programmed via the Genius™ tool (refer to the Genius™
Help On-Line for details) and can operate in the following modes:
D-Flash™
In Fixed mode, the focus is set to the desired position via software (expressed in cm). This mode represents the basic Flash™ function, in which the focus is adjusted in software for a given installation and its position is stored in the scanner decoder. This function is similar to the focus adjustment available for the DS6300 scanner with the great difference that the adjustment is performed via software through the Genius™ tool and not through the physical adjustment of an external screw.
Figure 97 – Flash™ Fixed Mode
9.1.2 Continuous
In Continuous mode, the focus position is continuously moving from a minimum position to a maximum position with a defined frequency (f1 in the figure below). This Flash™ function allows exploiting the whole reading range of the current DS6400 when the object to be detected is large and slow moving. Typical examples of applications for the Continuous mode are front side reading of big pallets, or reading on a fork lift truck.
Figure 98 – Flash™ Continuous Mode
84
READING FEATURES
9
9.1.3 Triggered
In Triggered mode, the focus position can be set depending on the received external input
(photocell, barrier, serial message…). This mode represents the most traditional Flash™ function, since it requires photocells, barriers or a dedicated interface to the Host (PC or
PLC).
Figure 99 – Flash™ Triggered Mode
In D-Flash™ mode, the focus position can be set depending on the measured distance (Dn in the figure below) between the scanner and the scanned object. This is the most innovative and flexible function, that makes different software implementations possible. The
D-Flash™ development has been based on the minimum distance detected. Thus, it can apply to the widest variety of applications. Further developments of D-Flash™ will be provided according to the specific application needs.

9.2 ADVANCED CODE RECONSTRUCTION (ACR™ 4)
The traditional way of barcode reading could be called “Linear Reading”. In this case, the laser beam crosses the barcode symbol from its beginning to its end as shown in the following figure:
Laser Beam
Figure 101 – Linear Reading
In Advanced Code Reconstruction mode it is no longer necessary for the laser beam to cross the label from the start to the end. With just a set of partial scans on the label (obtained using the motion of the label itself), the DS6400 is able to “reconstruct” the barcode. A typical set of partial scans is shown in the figure below:
Code Direction
Figure 102 – Partial Scans
None of the partial scans contains the whole label. The decoder aligns each partial scan correctly and combines them in order to obtain the entire code.
This alignment is performed by calculating the time difference from one partial scan to another using a reference code element.
9.2.1 Tilt Angle for Advanced Code Reconstruction
The most important parameter in Advanced Code Reconstruction is the value of the maximum tilt angle ( maximum) under which the code reconstruction process is still possible.

9.3 PACKTRACK™
PackTrack™ is a patented operating mode for Datalogic Omni-Directional Reading Stations used to correctly assign codes read on different packs when placed in the scanner Reading
Area at the same time.
In fact, in the following example, the codes of two or more consecutive packs are found at the same time in the scanner reading area. Therefore, the condition occurs where, in the sequence of the two packs, the code of the second pack is read first, just before the code of the previous pack. A system without PackTrack™ would assign the code of the second pack to first pack and vice versa, thus causing a gross error in sortation.
Figure 105 – PackTrack™ System Layout
Working in PackTrack™ mode requires an encoder and a presence sensor (or equivalent signals) to track the moving packs.
87
DS6400 REFERENCE MANUAL
9
For correct functioning, the PackTrack™ operating mode requires a calibration just after the installation of the scanners. This operation is absolutely necessary to accurately locate barcodes on a fixed reference system.
PackTrack™ uses a right-handed reference system (right hand with thumb = X axis; forefinger = Y axis; middle finger = Z axis) where the X axis coincides with the PS line, the Y axis coincides with the conveyor direction and the Z axis is oriented upwards from the conveyor (see figure below).
PackTrack™ Reference System
Figure 106 – PackTrack™ Reference System
This coordinate system is absolute for the reading station, i.e. is valid for all the scanners independently from their position or orientation with respect to the conveyor. For this reason, after the PackTrack™ calibration (and configuration) has been correctly performed, when a barcode is under the beam to be read by the scanners, its position is defined by the coordinates of its central point, independently from which scanner is reading it. This can be
verified using the Test mode in the SPY PackTrack Calibration dialog box (see par. 9.3.2).
Both Auto PackTrack Calibration using the DLAPC tool and Manual PackTrack™ Calibration using the SPY tool can be performed in Genius™ (refer to the following paragraphs and the
Genius™ Help On-Line for details).

9.3.1 Auto
In a Master /Slave Reading Station working in PackTrack™ or Continuous operating mode, the entire Reading Station can be automatically calibrated using the DLAPC tool in Genius™.
The following paragraphs detail the Conditions and Limits, Parameters, and Procedure to follow. This information is also given in the Help On-Line.
Auto PackTrack Conditions and Limits
The Conditions and Limits for Auto PackTrack Calibration are summarized here for convenience and are also integrated into the following procedure descriptions:
The following scanners are supported by Auto PackTrack Calibration: DS6400 (*see note below), DX6400 (*see note below), DS8100A, DX8200A.
Before performing the Auto PackTrack Calibration procedure, if a system reset or power reset is performed, wait for all the scanners to be available (up to 60 sec.) before proceeding.
Operating Mode of the Master must be either PackTrack or Continuous.
Code 128 codes must be enabled on the Master with Label Length set to variable.
If the system Presence Sensor and Encoder are used, the correct Encoder Step value must be set on the Master and the Presence Sensor must be connected to the
CBX100/500 Input 1.
If instead the PPA-8000 Photocell Array is used, it must be connected to the CBX100/500
I1 and I2 inputs, the following parameters must be disabled on the Master: Physical
Encoder for PackTrack or Use Encoder for Continuous, and the Encoder, if present,
must be physically disconnected.
DX scanners which are calibrated automatically cannot be automatically replaced by DX scanners with a previous sw version (earlier than 6.80). You must either update the old scanner software prior to substitution, or complete the calibration manually, after installation, by setting the PSOffset and Direction parameters.
NOTE
The autofocus feature of DS6400 and DX6400 scanners makes Auto
PackTrack Calibration difficult, therefore to assure that the procedure can correctly calibrate these scanners, it is necessary to set a fixed focus value which allows the scanner to read all the label positions useful for its calibration.

Auto PackTrack Parameter Descriptions
By means of the software tool DLAPC, it is possible to perform the Auto PackTrack setup procedure for PackTrack™ and Continuous Operating Mode applications.
Select the "DLAPC" option from the Tools menu or click on the related icon on the Tool Bar to open the following dialog box:
Once the DLAPC window has been opened, set the following parameters according to the application requirements:
Sensor Type: whether calibration will be performed using the system Presence Sensor and
Encoder (most cases), or the PPA-8000 Photocell Array.
NOTE
The Auto PackTrack procedure requires using the PPA-8000 Photocell
Array for all systems where either the Presence Sensor or the Encoder are absent (including Continuous Operating Mode and Cargoscan applications).
If using the Presence Sensor and Encoder, the presence sensor must be connected to the
CBX100/500 I1 input. The Encoder Step parameter must also be set correctly.
If using the PPA-8000 you must set the Photocell distance (165 mm default). The Photocell
Array must be connected to the CBX100/500 I1 and I2 inputs (see the relative installation manual), and the Encoder, if present, must be disconnected.
Pack Version: the version of the PCT-8000 being used for calibration. This value can be read from the barcode labels on the PCT-8000. Each label has the value vnnn where v is the version number.
90
READING FEATURES
9
Calibration Type: XYZ calibration with Absolute X position is forced. The coordinates for the three axes are calibrated. The X coordinate for all slaves is relative to a precise point
(reference point). This requires that the X Offset be set which will be used to harmonize the
X=0 coordinate of all of the individual slaves.
NOTE
For Oscillating Mirror models the scan line must be parallel to the conveyor direction and only the Y calibration will be performed, (the X and Z axes will automatically be set to zero).
Z Offset (if necessary): for packs that are elevated above the conveyor surface (for example on tilt trays), this parameter sets an offset for the height of a pack so that Z = 0 corresponds to the bottom of the pack.

Auto PackTrack Setup
1. Click on the Start button and follow the instructions given in the Auto PackTrack procedure window.
The first message is sent to the slaves and their status is shown in the synoptic buttons at the top of the window.
The scanner status indicated by each synoptic button has the following convention:
Grey
Red
Red
Aqua
Yellow
Green
xx-U slave xx cannot be calibrated - calibration is not supported by scanner software version
xx-U slave xx can be calibrated but the calibration procedure fails either barcode reading or verification
xx-L slave xx can be calibrated - is Lost stops responding during the procedure
xx-I slave xx can be calibrated - is in the Initial state ready to be calibrated
xx-N slave xx can be calibrated - is calibrated but Not verified
xx-C slave xx calibrated - is calibrated and verified
The symbol xx is the number of the slave scanner 01, 02, 03 etc., independently from the selection in the System Information Section>User Interface Style configuration parameter in Genius.
2. Follow each step given in the Auto PackTrack procedure window. The instructions and summary of each step are written in the terminal area of the window. The Synoptic buttons report the slave scanner status throughout the procedure.
Basically, place the PCT-8000 onto the moving conveyor, before the PS Line (reference point) and parallel to a conveyor edge (i.e. right-hand edge) with its arrow in the same direction as the conveyor movement. Let it pass through the reading station.
92
READING FEATURES

NOTE
If there are any nodes that show as U or L, then you should Stop the procedure and correct the problem. If the nodes respond with I, N, or C then you can Continue with the procedure.
To run each instruction press the Next button. The procedure repeats the steps asking to change the PCT-8000 X position (i.e. always before the PS Line (reference point) and parallel to a conveyor edge but changing to the left-hand edge and/or to the center of the conveyor), until the procedure terminates. At the end of the procedure, only the Stop button is active. Typically 3 passes are necessary.
93

DS6400 REFERENCE MANUAL
3. The Absolute X coordinate requires placing a barcode label centered onto the physical X position (X Offset) on the conveyor (previously set in the dialog box), you have 2 minutes to read the code before the procedure ends automatically.
NOTE
Be careful that the barcode is not accidentally read in the act of placing it at the desired X Offset position, and assure that it is read by only one
scanner (see the figure below). You may have to pass your hand or other opaque object over it in order to end this step.
4. When you have successfully completed the procedure, (all scanners are green), press the Stop button to end the procedure and return to the Auto PackTrack setup window.
NOTE
The Stop button is always present and can be used at any time to end the procedure and return to the Auto PackTrack setup window.
NOTE
At this point you can download the Auto PackTrack Report file saved in the
Master scanner RAM. This can only be done by connecting the Master to another instance of Genius™ on a different communication channel. Select the Tools>File transfer... menu from this new Genius™ connection.
5. From the original Genius™ connection, press the Exit button to exit the Addon.
The calibrated values for the reading station will be sent to the Master scanner and the
Master scanner will reset the reading station which is now calibrated and ready.

9.5 READING DIAGRAMS
The reading diagram given below illustrates the convention used to calculate the minimum and maximum reading distance for barcodes. This procedure allows calculating the reading distance of your scanner when working with a focus different from the one displayed in the
reading diagrams given in par. 9.5.1 and par. 9.5.2.
Draw a straight vertical line at the minimum focus distance value; the points of intersection between this line and the global reading area give the minimum reading distance.
Draw a circumference from the origin (0,0) with a radial distance equal to the maximum scanner focus distance. The points of intersection between this circumference and the global reading area give the maximum reading distance.

10 MAINTENANCE
10.1 CLEANING
Clean the laser beam output window periodically for correct operation of the scanner (see
Dust, dirt, etc. on the window may alter the reading performance.
Repeat the operation frequently in particularly dirty environments.
Use soft material and alcohol to clean the window and avoid any abrasive substances.
WARNING
Clean the window of the DS6400 when the scanner is turned off or at least when the laser beam is not active.
10.2 EXTERNAL MEMORY BACKUP & RESTORE
Backup and Restore is vital to all applications in that it provides a method to quickly replace a reader and return the station to full capacity in the event of a failure. The External Memory
Backup and Restore procedure is the preferred method since it always provides complete backup and restore functions (Configuration and Environmental parameters).
When the DS6400 scanner is connected through CBX series connection boxes, Backup and
Restore is provided through the BM100 accessory module installed inside the CBX100 or
CBX500 connection box.
If the DS6400 scanner is integrated into an ID-NET™ network having an SC4000 ID-NET™ controller as Master, then the SC4000 also provides the Backup and Restore procedure.
This procedure can be performed directly from the Genius™ Device menu.
To manually perform the Backup and Restore procedure see the relative BM100 or SC4000 manual for details.
10.3 AUTOMATIC SCANNER REPLACEMENT (ASR)
NOTE
The ASR procedure is available for backward compatibility or for applications that do not use the CBX/SC4000, however it is not the preferred method.
The Datalogic Automatic Scanner Replacement (ASR) procedure allows restoring system functioning automatically after one or more scanners are replaced in a Master/Slave
Lonworks network.
123
DS6400 REFERENCE MANUAL
10
The ASR procedure is principally used for PackTrack™ configurations, but it restores only a part of the system parameters: common slave parameters (Code Selection and
Reconstruction) plus each single slave PackTrack™ calibration.
The Master must be prepared at the time of installation in order for this procedure to work correctly.
10.3.1 ASR Network Configuration
1. On the Master scanner, check the Modify & Backup Lon Slave Scanner
Configuration parameter in Genius™ and configure the Lonworks Slave Scanner
Common Parameters (Code and Reconstruction Parameters).
2. Enable the ASR procedure through the Enable A.S.R. parameter in the Master configuration.
3. Send the configuration to the Master EEPROM to force the Slave Operating Mode, Code
Reading Symbologies and Reconstruction parameters and store all the Slave
PackTrack™ calibration tables.
Now the Slave scanners are configured through the Master (ASR parameters stored in the Master) and the ASR procedure is implemented.
4. Save this configuration to file (.ddc).
10.3.2 Scanner Replacement Procedure
NOTE
Slave
The ASR procedure requires replacing one scanner at a time.
1. Power down the entire system.
2. Replace the Slave scanner with a new one (default settings).
3. Power up the system and wait for initialization.
Master
1. Load the saved configuration from file (.ddc) to a new Master scanner.
2. Power down the entire system.
3. Replace the old Master scanner with the new one.
4. Power up the system and wait for initialization.
The ASR works only if both the Master and Slave devices have software
6.40 or later.

POINT-TO-POINT
Using a Point-to-Point layout, the data is transmitted on the Main interface as well as on the
Auxiliary interface. The Main interface can be selected for RS232 or RS485 full-duplex communications. Two different layouts are available according to the DS6400 reader model used for the connection.
Standard Models
When On-Line operating mode is used, the reader is activated by an External Trigger/PS
(photoelectric sensor) when the object enters its reading zone. In the following case, the signal is passed to the DS6400 through the CBX100/CBX500, which also passes power to the system from the power supply (i.e. PWR-120).

PASS THROUGH
When Pass Through is activated on the Auxiliary interface, the DS6400 reader can be integrated in a network consisting of different scanners not provided with a Lonworks interface.
This connection mode allows two or more devices to be connected to a single external serial interface. The DS6400 transmits the messages received by its auxiliary interface onto its main interface. The received data is transmitted "as is", (passed-through), and therefore any data formatting requirements must be made at each individual reader.
In this configuration a series of scanners can be connected together using RS232 on the main interface and all messages will be passed through this chain to the host. The reading phase of each scanner is independent from the others. In Pass Through connections each scanner is provided with its relative External Trigger (multi P.S.).
Applications can be implemented to connect a device such as a hand-held reader to the
Auxiliary port for manual code reading capability.
For the RS232 connections the maximum cable length is 15 m (50 ft).
The scanners represented in the following figures are configured in Pass Through mode.

RS232 MASTER/SLAVE
The RS232 master/slave connection is used to integrate a DS6400 reader in a network consisting of different scanners not provided with a Lonworks interface.
The Slave scanners use RS232 only on the main and auxiliary interfaces. Each slave scanner transmits the messages received by the auxiliary interface onto the main interface.
All messages will be transferred towards the master.
The master scanner is connected to the Host PC on the main RS232 serial interface through the CBX connection box.
In RS232 Master/Slave connections the External Trigger/PS signal is unique to the system
(single P.S.).
NOTE
The DS6400 Standard model, working as Master in an RS232 network, may be simultaneously connected to a Lonworks network consisting of
DS6400 slave scanners. Be careful when assigning the slave address, since the number of the first Lonworks slave must be a progressive number with respect to the address number defined for the last slave scanner of the
RS232 network. For example, if the RS232 network consists of Slave 1 and
Slave 2, the address to be assigned to the first Lonworks slave scanner will be Slave 3 (not Slave 1).
