2.7 DX6400 FLASH™ DYNAMIC FOCUS

The DX6400 has an innovative linear motor designed to control the focus position of the

scanner via software. This dynamic system, called FLASH

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:

•

•

•

Triggered Mode

•

D-Flash™ Mode

2.7.1 Fixed Mode

In Fixed mode, the focus is set in the wished position via software (expressed in cm/inches).

This mode represents the basic Flash™ function, in which the focus is software adjusted

before the reading application and its position are 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 a manual adjustment of an external screw.

2.7.2 Continuous Mode

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 DX6400 when the object to be

detected is big and slowly moving. Typical examples of applications for the Continuous mode

are front side reading of big pallets, or reading on a fork lift truck.
