  • Page 12: About This Manual

    About This Manual The SE 2223/3223 Scan Engine Integration Guide provides general instructions for mounting, setting up, and programming the SE 2223 and SE 3223 scan engines. Note: This guide provides general instructions for the installation of the scan engine into a customer's device. It is recommended that an opto-mechanical engineer perform an opto-mechanical analysis prior to integration.

  • Page 13: Notational Conventions

    Call the Support Center from a phone near the scanning equipment so that the service person can try to talk you through your problem. If the equipment is found to be working properly and the problem is symbol readability, the Support Center will request samples of your bar codes for analysis at our plant.

That signal is amplified, while noise and the effects of ambient light are removed. Digitizer This analyzes the conditioned analog signal and threshold amplitudes to create a digitized representation of the bar code being read.

    When the SE 2223/3223 is in the Low Power mode, the PWRDWN signal is asserted. This signal alerts the host that the SE 2223/3223 is in sleep mode. Table 1-1 shows how to put the SE 2223/3223 into Low Power mode. Table 1-2 shows how to awaken it.

  • Page 23: Serial I/O

    The BPR* and DLED* output lines do not provide enough current drive for the actual beeper and LED device. Additional buffering is needed. The SE 2223/3223's beeper output ranges from 1.8 to 2.5 kHz. The beeper output is a 50% duty cycle square wave.

  • Page 24: Electrical Interface

    If a non-inverting driver is used to buffer the DLED* line, the output of the driver should be connected to the cathode (-) end of the LED. Electrical Interface See Table 2-2 on page 2-4 for the pin functions of the SE 2223/3223 interface and typical input and output circuitry. Scanning Patterns The SE 2223/3223 generates four scanning patterns based on the software command received at the interface.

  • Page 32: Electrical Interface

    M2x0.4mm 0.16 Electrical Interface The SE 2223/3223 is controlled by a 12-pin interface that uses the Simple Serial Interface (SSI) communication protocol. SSI provides a communications link between Symbol Technologies decoders (e.g., SE 2223 scan engine, slot scanners, hand-held scanners, two-dimensional scanners, hands-free scanners, and RF base stations) and a serial host.

    Because the SE 2223/3223 chassis is at GND potential, a grounded host can accept the SE 2223/3223 directly. If the host is not at GND potential (as in SE 1200 installations), isolation can be accomplished by inserting an insulator between the two chassis, and if metallic screws are used, shoulder washers are required to isolate the screws from the host.

  • Page 36: Optical

    Installation Optical The SE 2223/3223 uses a sophisticated optical system that can provide scanning performance that matches or exceeds the performance of much larger scanners. However, an improperly designed enclosure, or improper selection of the window material can reduce scanner performance.

Good surface hardness, so does not have to be hard-coated, but may be for severe environments. Reasonably good impact resistance. Most plastic eye glasses sold today are uncoated, cell cast CR-39.

  • Page 38: A Word About Coatings

    Installation Polysiloxane Coating Polysiloxane coatings are applied to plastic surfaces to improve the surface resistance to both scratch and abrasion. They are generally applied by dipping and air drying in an oven with filtered hot air. A Word About Coatings If using an anti-reflective coating, a polysiloxane coating is not needed.

  • Page 39: Mounting

    The SE 2223/3223 may need to be mounted to read symbols that are automatically presented to it, or that are always presented in a pre-determined location. In these situations positioning of the SE 2223/3223 with respect to the symbol location is critical, or unsatisfactory reading performance may result.
  • Page 40 2. Center the symbol (left to right) in the scan beam whenever possible. 3. Position the symbol so that the scan beam is as near as possible to perpendicular to the bars and spaces in the symbol. Although the scanner can tolerate some tilt of the symbols, best results are obtained with no tilt.
