Getting Started Tip: Some applications can benefit from mounting the system at a slight angle (15 degress) to reduce reflection from the inspected surface back to the reader.
Setting Up Your DataMan 60 Setting Up Your DataMan 60 Setting the Focus Position DataMan 60 can operate in one of three distance ranges. To set the focus position: 1. Remove the lens cover. 2. Set the focus position to 45, 70, or 110: turn the lens cap clockwise (45->70->110) to focus to a larger distance;...
Setting Up Your DataMan 60 Field of View and Reading Distances The following charts show the field of view (FoV) of the DataMan 60 series readers. Reading distance values are also provided for 1-D and 2-D example code distances. This chart shows the supported range of reading distances at 45 mm focus position.

3. Connect the DataMan 60 reader to your PC. 4. Choose Start > Programs > Cognex > DataMan Software v x.x.x > Setup Tool to launch the DataMan Setup Tool. The detected readers will appear under the COM ports.
Using Your DataMan 60 External Triggers If you are using external triggering, you can use any of these methods to trigger your DataMan 60 series reader: Send a pulse on the I/O cable: Input 0 (white) Input 1 (white/black) Send a serial trigger command over the RS-232 connection or the Ethernet connection.
Connections, Optics and Lighting Connections, Optics and Lighting I/O Cable The I/O cable provides access to trigger and high-speed outputs. Unused wires can be clipped short or tied back using a tie made of non-conductive material. For RS-232, use the Power Supply return path for ground. Note: GND (Pin 4) is connected to the reader housing, cable shield, and DB15 shell.
Connections, Optics and Lighting USB and Flying Leads I/O Cable You can connect a cable with USB and flying leads (DM-USBIO-00) to the cable that is attached to the device. The following table shows the pinout and color description of the flying leads. This is a female connector/socket.

Connections, Optics and Lighting Digital Input Lines Inputs are not galvanic isolated but need to be referenced to ground. External Wiring Examples: Digital Input Lines...
Connections, Optics and Lighting Digital Output Lines The digital outputs can be used as either NPN (pull-down) or PNP (pull-up) lines. For NPN lines, the external load should be connected between the output and the positive supply voltage (<24 V). The outputs pull down to less than 3 V when ON, which causes current to flow through the load.
Connections, Optics and Lighting Illumination Strobe Output The strobe output is provided by a diode that is added to the push-pull circuit, with series to the pull-up transistor. This diode blocks the higher voltage when the output is pulled up when used as open-collector type driving, but enables the driving of high level in TTL mode.
Connections, Optics and Lighting Multi-Port Connections You can connect multiple DataMan 60 readers to a single PC (or other device equipped with a serial port) using a multi- port connection. A multi-port connection creates a daisy-chain of readers. Each reader receives serial data from the previous reader and transmits it to the next reader.
Connections, Optics and Lighting Multi-Port Usage Notes You can obtain the best results when using multi-port connections by keeping the following usage guidelines in mind as you design your system: The maximum cable length between any two DataMan readers or between the PC and any DataMan reader should be no greater than 15 meters.
Cleaning/Maintenance Cleaning/Maintenance Cleaning the Reader Housing To clean the outside of the reader housing, use a small amount of mild detergent cleaner or isopropyl alcohol on a cleaning cloth. Do not pour the cleaner directly onto the reader housing. CAUTION: Do not attempt to clean any DataMan product with harsh or corrosive solvents, including lye, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) or gasoline.
