STEP 3 – X-PRESS™ CONFIGURATION

X-PRESS™ is the intuitive Human Machine Interface designed to improve ease of installation and maintenance.

Status and diagnostic information are clearly presented by means of the five colored LEDs, whereas the single push button gives immediate access to the following relevant functions:

 AutoSetup to self-optimize and auto-configure reading performance in demanding applications

AutoLearn to self-detect and auto-configure for reading unknown barcodes (by type and length)

Test Mode with bar-graph visualization to check static reading performance

NOTE

If using the OM2000N accessory, when entering the X-PRESS™ interface, the Oscillating Mirror remains in the default fixed position (-15°) in order to make barcode reading easier while performing the X-PRESS™ functions.

The colors and meaning of the five LEDs are illustrated in the following table:

READY (green) This LED indicates the device is ready to operate.

GOOD (green) This LED confirms successful reading.

TRIGGER (yellow)

COM (yellow)

This LED indicates the status of the reading phase.

This LED indicates active communication on main serial port. *

STATUS (red) This LED indicates a NO READ result.

* When connected to a Fieldbus network through the CBX500, the COM LED is always active, even in the absence of data transmission, because of polling activity on the Fieldbus network.

During the reader startup (reset or restart phase), all the LEDs blink for one second.

On the back of the reader near the cable, the “POWER ON” LED indicates the laser scanner is correctly powered.

** When connected to a Fieldbus network through the CBX500, the COM LED is always active, even in the absence of data transmission, because of polling activity on the Fieldbus network.

During the reader startup (reset or restart phase), all the LEDs blink for one second.

On the back of the reader near the cable, the “POWER ON” LED indicates the laser scanner is correctly powered.

2.2 ID-NET™

The ID-NET™ is a built-in high-speed interface dedicated for highspeed scanner interconnection. The ID-NET™ is in addition to the

Main and Auxiliary serial interfaces.

The following network configurations are available:

 ID-NET™ M/S Synchronized: Single station – multiple scanners

ID-NET™ interface allows local connection of multiple scanners reading different sides of the same target. All scanners share a single presence sensor and activate/deactivate simultaneously.

CBX100 CBX100 CBX100

At the end of each reading phase a single data message is transmitted to the host.

Thanks to ID-NET™, data communication among scanners is highly efficient so that an immediate result will be available.

CBX100 CBX100 CBX100

ID-NET™ interface allows connection of scanners reading objects placed on independent conveyors. All scanners are typically located far away from each other and they use a dedicated presence sensor.

At the end of each reading phase, each scanner transmits its own data message to the host.

Thanks to ID-NET™, data collection among readers is accomplished at a high speed without the need of external multiplexing device. This leads to an overall cost reduction and to a simple system wiring.

2.2.1 How

A complete ID-NET™ scanner network can be rapidly setup, as follows:

Mounting & Connection

1. Mechanically mount/install all the readers (refer to par. 3.2 and 3.2.4).

2. Wire ID-NET™ (refer to par. 4.3 or 5.3).

3. Connect the planned Master scanner to a PC by means of the Genius™ configuration software.

4. Power up the entire system.

Configuration

1. Launch Genius™.

2. From the Genius™ Device Menu select “Local Device Network Settings” and program the

Role of the Master scanner (Synchronized or Multidata).

This procedure requires the Network Baud Rate be the same for all Slaves and Master,

(500 kbs is the default value). It can be changed after network setup using Genius™ through the Master scanner. See also the alternative procedure in the note below.

3. At the prompt to "Send updated Network configuration to the Local Device" (Master) choose "Yes".

4. Then run the NET-AUTOSET procedure from the Icon in the Devices Area. Genius™ sets all slave scanners according to the Master Role (Synchronized or Multidata), and assigns each a random address. If necessary, this address can be changed through the

Network Wizard.

5. Configure the System parameters via Genius™.

6. If using the CBX connection box equipped with a BM100 Backup module, perform

System Backup at the Master.

The scanner network is ready.

NOTE

If necessary, the ID-NET™ baudrate can be set individually on each Slave scanner to match the Master. Connect each Slave to Genius™ and set the

Reading System Layout > Network Baudrate parameter. Then follow the procedure above.

NOTE

An alternative method of programming scanner address and role assignment can be accomplished by using the "Connectivity Programming

Barcodes" (refer to the "Setup Procedure Using Programming Barcodes" document on the product CD).

2.3 X-PRESS™ HUMAN MACHINE INTERFACE

X-PRESS™ is the intuitive Human Machine Interface designed with the precise goal of improving ease of installation and maintenance.

Status and diagnostic information are clearly presented by means of five-colored LEDs, whereas the single multi-function key gives immediate access to relevant functions:

Autosetup to self-optimize reading performance in demanding applications

Autolearn to self-detect unknown barcodes

 Test Mode with bar-graph visualization to check static reading performance

X-PRESS™ is the common interface adopted in all new products: “You learn one, you can use them all”.

The colors and meaning of the five LEDs when in the one of the operating modes (On-Line,

Automatic or Continuous) are illustrated in par 2.1.1.

NOTE

The X-PRESS™ functions do not work if the motor or laser are turned off,

see chp. 9 for details.

Indication

The “STATUS” and “READY” LEDs blink simultaneously to signal the presence of a failure.

Diagnostic message transmission on interfaces can be enabled to provide details about specific failure conditions.

At the same time one or more LEDs light up according to the following scheme:

AutoLearn Function

Once entered, the reader starts a procedure to automatically detect and recognize barcodes

(by type and length), which are presented to it

1

. The laser turns on and the LEARN LED blinks to indicate the ongoing process.

The procedure is as follows:

- place the desired barcode on the scanline.

- wait until the LEARN LED stays steady on (indicating the reader has detected the barcode).

- repeat , if needed, the above two steps to program up to 10 different barcodes (the LEARN

LED returns to the blinking state for the next code). If more than one barcode is detected in the scan line, the Multi Label mode is enabled (refer to the “ 2K/4K Family Software

Configuration Parameter Guide ” Help file).

- exit the process by pressing the X-PRESS™ push button once.

The scanner will restart at the end of the process, and then the detected barcodes are automatically configured in scanner memory.

AutoSetup Function

Once entered, if a barcode label is positioned in front of the scanline, the scanner automatically performs the optimal setup of the reading parameters for that specific barcode.

The procedure is as follows:

-

- place the desired barcode on the scanline. enter the AutoSetup function (the laser turns on and the SETUP LED blinks to indicate the ongoing process).

- wait until the SETUP LED stays steady on (indicating the reader has detected the barcode).

This procedure ends either when the barcode is successfully decoded or after a timeout of about 7 (seven) seconds.

The scanner will restart at the end of the process, and then the optimized reading parameters for that barcode are automatically configured in scanner memory.

NOTE

The AutoSetup function does not modify the programmed barcode symbologies. If needed, the AutoLearn function can be performed after

Autosetup.

DS2100N REFERENCE MANUAL

To fix a DS2100N Scanner to the GFC-200, use the two M 4 x 6 mm screws supplied with the GFC Kit. Refer to the following figure.

Figure 25 - Fixing DS2X00N Scanner to GFC-200

The GFC-200 85° contact reading mirror assures that the minimum skew angle is maintained to avoid direct light reflection which can degrade reading performance.

When reading very reflective barcodes, it may be necessary to increase the skew angle (up to 10° - 15°). In this case, the GFC-200 should be mounted with a corresponding inclination.

The internal optical path from the scanner reading window to the GFC-200 window is

51 mm.

The reading distance of the DS2100N scanner with the GFC-200 is shifted by 51 mm towards the scanner because of the internal optical path between the scanner and the GFC-

200 output window.

The reading performance also decreases in typical conditions by about 10% due to the optical signal passing through the output window of the GFC-200 and the reflection on the mirror surface.

The combination of these effects produces the reading diagram represented below:

3.2.5 Mounting an OM2000N Accessory Oscillating Mirror

The OM2000N oscillating mirror is designed to generate homogeneous and adjustable raster reading through deflection of the scanning laser beam.

The system consists of the oscillating mirror attached to the scanner and allows a surface instead of a line to be observed; versatility and reading accuracy are therefore increased in

"Picket Fence" reading mode.

The electronic and electromechanical components controlling the mirror movement are contained inside the rugged metal casing, which guarantees protection class IP65 when the

OM2000N is mounted correctly onto the scanner.

The OM2000N is directly powered from the scanner through a connector which is accessible

after removing the scanning window (see Figure 30). It therefore operates exclusively at low

power, between 10 and 30 VDC.

The following figure gives the overall dimensions of the DS2100N + OM2000N and may be used for its installation in the application.

The installation of the deflection mirror is very easy.

1) Clean the OM2000N mirror surface and output window (internally and externally) with a clean soft cloth and alcohol before assembling it to the scanner.

CAUTION

All abrasive substances must be absolutely avoided as they cause irreparable damage to the transparency of the glass.

2) Remove the scanning window from the

scanner (see Figure 29).

3) Bring the OM2000N close to the scanner and insert the cable into the power

connector of the scanner (see Figure

30).

3.3 POSITIONING

The DS2100N scanner is able to decode moving barcode labels at a variety of angles, however significant angular distortion may degrade reading performance.

When mounting the DS2100N take into consideration these three ideal label position angles:

Skew 10° to 30°, Tilt 0° and Pitch 0° .

Follow the suggestions for the best orientation:

The Skew angle is represented by the value

S

in Figure 35. Position the reader to

assure at least 10° for the Skew angle. This avoids the direct reflection of the laser light emitted by the DS2100N.

For the raster version, this angle refers to the most inclined or external raster line, so that S all other raster lines assure more than 10°

Skew.

The Tilt angle is represented by the value T

in Figure 36. Position the reader in order to

minimize the Tilt angle.

Figure 35 - Skew Angle

T

By using the Reconstruction Reading Mode software parameter, the tilt angle is less critical and can be decoded even if the scan line doesn’t cross the entire code.

See par. 7.1 or the Help On Line for details.

The Pitch angle is represented by the value

P

in Figure 37. Position the reader in order

to minimize the Pitch angle.

UL STYLE 2502 80°C 30V

Cable Shield MUST be connected to earth ground ONLY at the Master.

NEVER use ID-NET™ cable shield as common reference.

The ID-NET™ max cable length depends on the baudrate used, (see the Baudrate Table below).

For Common Power Connections use only 2 wires (ID+ and ID-).

4.5.1 Code

If the DS2100N 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 "2K/4K Family Software Configuration

5.5.1 Code

If the DS2100N 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 "2K/4K Family Software Configuration

Parameter Guide” Help file".

5.6 OUTPUTS

Two general purpose outputs are available. The following pins are present on the 25-pin connector of the scanner:

The following typical layouts refer to system hardware configurations. Dotted lines in the figures refer to optional hardware configurations within the particular layout.

These layouts also require the correct setup of the software configuration parameters.

Complete software configuration procedures can be found in the Guide To Rapid

Configuration in the Genius™ Help On Line.

6.1 POINT-TO-POINT

In this layout the data is transmitted to the Host on the main serial interface. A Genius™ based Host Mode programming can be accomplished either through the main interface or the

Auxiliary interface.

In Local Echo communication mode, data is transmitted on the RS232 auxiliary interface independently from the main interface selection.

When On-Line Operating mode is used, the scanner is activated by an External Trigger

(photoelectric sensor) when the object enters its reading zone.

6.2 PASS-THROUGH

Pass-through mode allows two or more devices to be connected to a single external serial interface.

Each DS2100N transmits the messages received by the Auxiliary interface onto the Main interface. All messages will be passed through this chain to the host.

When On-Line Operating mode is used, the scanner is activated by an External Trigger

(photoelectric sensor) when the object enters its reading zone.

Applications can be implemented to connect a device such as a hand-held reader to the

Auxiliary port of the last scanner in the chain for manual code reading capability.

The ID-NET™ connection is used to collect data from several scanners to build a multi-point or a multi-sided reading system; there can be one master and up to 31 slaves connected together.

The slave scanners are connected together using the ID-NET™ interface. Every slave scanner must have a ID-NET™ address in the range 1-31.

The master scanner is also connected to the Host on the RS232/RS485 main serial interface.

For a Master/Slave Synchronized layout the External Trigger signal is unique to the system; there is a single reading phase and a single message from the master scanner to the Host computer. It is not necessary to bring the External Trigger signal to all the scanners.

6.4 RS232 MASTER/SLAVE

NOTE

This interface is provided for backward compatibility. We recommend using the more efficient ID-NET™ network for Master/Slave or Multiplexer layouts.

The RS232 master/slave connection is used to collect data from several scanners to build either a multi-point or a multi-sided reading system; there can be one master and up to 9 slaves connected together.

The Slave scanners use RS232 only on the main and auxiliary serial interfaces. Each slave

DS2100N transmits the messages received by the auxiliary interface onto the main interface.

All messages will be passed through this chain to the Master.

The Master scanner is connected to the Host on the RS232/RS485 main serial interface.

There is a single reading phase and a single message from the master scanner to the Host computer.

Either On-Line or Serial On-Line Operating modes can be used in this layout.

When On-Line Operating mode is used, the external trigger signal is unique to the system, however it is not necessary to bring the external trigger signal to the Slave scanners.

The main and auxiliary ports are connected as shown in the figure below.

READING FEATURES

7.1 ADVANCED CODE RECONSTRUCTION (ACR-LITE)

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 100 – 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 scanner is able to “reconstruct” the barcode. A typical set of partial scans is shown in the figure below:

Code Direction

Figure 101 – 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.

The alignment is performed by calculating the time difference from one partial scan to another using a reference code element.

ACR-Lite therefore has an intrinsic ability to increase the reading percentage of damaged codes as in the examples below:

Figure 102 – ACR-Lite Readable Codes

ACR-Lite is disabled by default but can be enabled for the following code types:

7.1.1 Important ACR-Lite Reading Conditions

 Do not use ACR-Lite for omni-directional reading stations.

 Code concatenation and ACR-Lite are not compatible and therefore cannot be enabled simultaneously.

 Stacked codes and ACR-Lite are not compatible.

 Codes shorter than 4 digits, while readable linearly, cannot be reconstructed in ACR-Lite.

 Reconstruction reading mode is not compatible with scanner Raster models.

To maximize scanner performance in Advanced Code Reconstruction

Reading applications:

NOTE

 enable only the code symbologies that will actually be used in the application and disable any code symbologies that will not be used in the application

 reconstruct only one code label at a time

 use conveyor speeds less than or equal to 1.0 m/s

7.1.2 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.

7.2 LINEAR CODE READING

The number of scans performed on the code by the DS2100N and therefore the decoding capability is influenced by the following parameters:

 number of scans per second

 code motion speed

 label dimensions

 scan direction with respect to code motion

At least 5 scans during the code passage should be allowed to ensure a successful read.

If scanning is perpendicular to the code motion direction (Figure 105), the number of effective

scans performed by the reader is given by the following formula:

Where: SN = number of effective scans SN = [(LH/LS) * SS] – 2

LH = label height (in mm)

LS = label movement speed in (mm/s)

SS = number of scans per second

Direction of code movement at LS speed

Figure 105 - "Step-Ladder" Scanning Mode

For example, the DS2100N (500 scans/sec.) for a 25 mm high code moving at 1000 mm/s performs:

[(25/1000) * 500] - 2 = 10 effective scans.

87

DS2100N REFERENCE MANUAL

7

7.2.2 Picket-Fence

If scanning is parallel to the code motion, (Figure 106), the number of effective scans is given

by the following formula:

SN = [((FW-LW)/LS) * SS] -2 Where: SN = number of effective scans

FW = reading field width (in mm)

LW = label width (in mm)

LS = label movement speed (in mm/s)

For example, for a 60 mm wide code moving in a point where the reading field is 160 mm wide at a 1500 mm/s speed, the DS2100N (500 scans per sec.), performs:

[((160-60)/1500) * 500] - 2 = 31 effective scans

7.3.1 Raster

Raster versions are available. The distance between the top and bottom scan lines is called capture and is measured from the laser beam output window.

The maximum capture is 18 mm (0.7 in) at 300 mm (11.8 in).

If standard devices do not satisfy specific requirements, contact your nearest Datalogic distributor, supplying code samples, to obtain complete information on the reading possibilities.

Is power connected?

If using a power adapter (like PG 6000), is it connected to a wall outlet?

If using rail power, does rail have power?

If using CBX100, does it have power (check switch and LED)?

Measure voltage either at pin 13 and pin 25 (for 25-pin connector) or at spring clamp Vdc and GND (for CBX).

This indicates a diagnostic alarm/error condition. A User Defined

Error message or an Internal Numeric Error message is sent over the selected communication interface. See the Help On Line for diagnostic error conditions.

Is sensor connected to I1A, I1B spring clamps (for CBX) or to pins 18 and 19 (for 25-pin connector)?

Is power supplied to photo sensor?

Are the photo sensor LEDS (if any) working correctly?

Is the sensor/reflector system aligned?

Is the software configuration consistent with the application condition (operating mode etc.)?

In the Genius™ program select the Operating Mode branch and check for related parameters.

In the Genius™ program select the Operating Mode branch and check if Serial On Line is selected in the On Line Options.

Are the Start – Stop characters correctly assigned?

Is the serial trigger source correctly connected and configured?

In the Genius™ program select the Operating Mode branch and check the Reading Phase Timeout parameterization.

GLOSSARY

ACR-Lite (Advanced Code Reconstruction)

This is a light version of the powerful Advanced Code Reconstruction technology applied to high performance high precision scanners. ACR-Lite is effective in reading codes positioned

close-to-linear, small height codes, damaged codes, or poor print quality codes. See par. 7.1.

Aperture

Term used on the required CDRH warning labels to describe the laser exit window.

Barcode

A pattern of variable-width bars and spaces which represents numeric or alphanumeric data in machine-readable form. The general format of a barcode symbol consists of a leading margin, start character, data or message character, check character (if any), stop character, and trailing margin. Within this framework, each recognizable symbology uses its own unique format.

Barcode Label

A label that carries a barcode and can be affixed to an article.

Baud Rate

A unit used to measure communications speed or data transfer rate.

CDRH (Center for Devices and Radiological Health)

This organization (a service of the Food and Drug Administration) is responsible for the safety regulations governing acceptable limitations on electronic radiation from laser devices.

Datalogic devices are in compliance with the CDRH regulations.

Code Positioning

Variation in code placement that affects the ability of a scanner to read a code. The terms

Pitch, Skew, and Tilt deal with the angular variations of code positioning in the X, Y and Z

axes. See pars. 3.2.1 and 3.2.4. Variations in code placement affect the pulse width and

therefore the decoding of the code. Pulse width is defined as a change from the leading edge of a bar or space to the trailing edge of a bar or space over time. Pulse width is also referred to as a transition. Tilt, pitch, and skew impact the pulse width of the code.

Decode

The process of translating a barcode into data characters using a specific set of rules for each symbology.

Decoder

As part of a barcode reading system, the electronic package which receives the signals from the scanner, performs the algorithm to interpret the signals into meaningful data and provides the interface to other devices. The decoder is normally integrated into the scanner.

EAN

European Article Number System. The international standard barcode for retail food packages.

FLASH

An on-board non-volatile memory chip.

102

Full Duplex

Simultaneous, two-way, independent transmission in both directions.

Half Duplex

Transmission in either direction, but not simultaneously.

Host

A computer that serves other terminals in a network, providing services such as network control, database access, special programs, supervisory programs, or programming languages.

Interface

A shared boundary defined by common physical interconnection characteristics, signal characteristics and meanings of interchanged signals.

LED (Light Emitting Diode)

A low power electronic device that can serve as a visible or near infrared light source when voltage is applied continuously or in pulses. It is commonly used as an indicator light and uses less power than an incandescent light bulb but more than a Liquid Crystal Display

(LCD). LEDs have extremely long lifetimes when properly operated.

Multidrop Line

A single communications circuit that interconnects many stations, each of which contains terminal devices. See RS485.

Parameter

A value that you specify to a program. Typically parameters are set to configure a device to have particular operating characteristics.

Picket-Fence Orientation

When the barcode’s bars are positioned vertically on the product, causing them to appear as

a picket fence. The first bar will enter the scan window first. See par. 7.2.2.

Pitch

Rotation of a code pattern about the X-axis. The normal distance between center line or

adjacent characters. See pars. 3.2.1 and 3.2.4.

Position

The position of a scanner or light source in relation to the target of a receiving element.

Protocol

A formal set of conventions governing the formatting and relative timing of message exchange between two communicating systems.

Raster

The process of projecting the laser beam at varied angles spaced evenly from each other.

Typically, the mirrored rotor surfaces are angled to create multiple scan lines instead of a single beam.

Resolution

The narrowest element dimension, which can be distinguished by a particular reading device or printed with a particular device or method.

103

RS232

Interface between data terminal equipment and data communication equipment employing serial binary data interchange.

RS485

Interface that specifies the electrical characteristics of generators and receivers for use in balanced digital multipoint systems such as on a Multidrop line.

Scanner

A device that examines a printed pattern (barcode) and either passes the uninterpreted data to a decoder or decodes the data and passes it onto the Host system.

Serial Port

An I/O port used to connect a scanner to your computer, identifiable by a 9-pin or 25-pin connector.

Signal

An impulse or fluctuating electrical quantity (i.e.: a voltage or current) the variations of which represent changes in information.

Skew

Rotation about the Y-axis. Rotational deviation from correct horizontal and vertical

orientation; may apply to single character, line or entire encoded item. See pars. 3.2.1 and

3.2.4.

Step-Ladder Orientation

When the barcode’s bars are positioned horizontally on the product, causing them to appear

as a ladder. The ends of all bars will enter the scan window first. See par. 7.2.1.

Symbol

A combination of characters including start/stop and checksum characters, as required, that form a complete scannable barcode.

Tilt

Rotation around the Z axis. Used to describe the position of the barcode with respect to the

laser scan line. See pars. 3.2.1 and 3.2.4.

Trigger Signal

A signal, typically provided by a photoelectric sensor or proximity switch, which informs the scanner of the presence of an object within its reading zone.

UPC

Acronym for Universal Product Code. The standard barcode type for retail food packaging in the United States.

Visible Laser Diode

A light source used in scanners to illuminate the barcode symbol. Generates visible red light at wavelengths between 630 and 680 nm.
