Location and Positioning
The location and positioning guidelines provided do not consider unique
application characteristics. It is recommended that an opto-mechanical
engineer perform an opto-mechanical analysis prior to integration.
Note: Integrate the scanner in an environment no more extreme than the
product's specification, where the scanner will not exceed its
temperature range. For instance, do not mount the scanner on to or
next to a large heat source. When placing the scanner with another
device, ensure there is proper convection or venting for heat. Follow
these suggestions to ensure product longevity, warranty, and overall
satisfaction with the scanner.
Using the MiniScan as an Embedded Scanner
The MiniScan can be mounted to read symbols that are automatically presented, or that
are presented in a pre-determined location. In these applications, MinScan positioning with
respect to the symbol is critical. Failure to properly position the MiniScan can result in
unsatisfactory scanning performance. A thermal analysis is also recommended.
Two methods of positioning the scanner are provided:
•
The
Calculating The Usable Scan Length Method
sistently good quality symbols. It provides a mathematical solution to find the usable
scan length.
•
The
