2.5 POSITIONING THE SCANNER
The DS6500 reader is able to decode moving barcode labels at a variety of angles, however
significant angular distortion may degrade reading performance.
When mounting DS6500 take into consideration these three ideal label position angles:
Pitch 0° , Skew 10° to 30° and Tilt 0° .
Follow the suggestions for the best orientation:
The Pitch angle is represented by the value P in Figure 53. Position the reader in order to
minimize the Pitch angle.

The Skew angle is represented by the value S in Figure 54. Position the reader to assure at
least 10° for the Skew angle. This avoids the direct reflection of the laser light emitted by the
scanner.
For oscillating mirror models, this angle refers to the most inclined or external laser line, so that
all other laser lines assure more than 10° Skew.
