    3.2.4 Mounting a GFC-200 Accessory Contact Reading Mirror The GFC-200 is an 85° contact reading mirror that is mounted directly to the DS2100N Scanner. The GFC-200 allows contact reading, eliminating the external optical path. Figure 23 - GFC-200 General View The overall dimensions are provided in the figure below and can be used for proper installation.
  • Page 40 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.
  • Page 41 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.

    (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.
  • Page 43 INSTALLATION 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. All abrasive substances must be absolutely avoided as they cause irreparable damage to the transparency of the glass.
  • Page 44 DS2100N REFERENCE MANUAL The reading distance of the scanner with the OM2000N is shifted by 10 mm towards the scanner because of the internal optical path between the scanner and the OM2000N 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 OM2000N and the reflection on the mirror surface.

  • Page 45: Positioning

    INSTALLATION 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°.
