Page 26: What You Need To Know About Your Application
Check DX8210 operations What You Need to Know About Your Application To assure you get optimal performance out of your DX8210, it must be installed to meet the complete needs of your application. Therefore, take the time to learn the details of your application. The better you know your application, the easier it is to apply the DX8210’s capabilities to meet your application’s requirements.

384 x 128 x 328 mm [15.1 x 5 x 12.9 in]. The DX8210 is a sealed, unventilated unit. Mounting the unit with 300mm [12 inches] of clearance (front, top, and sides) is recommended for cooling and ease of maintenance.
Page 28: General Mounting Guidelines
Proper grounding limits the effects of noise due to Electromagnetic Inter- ference (EMI). Mounting Structure Considerations Your first task is to mount your DX8210 barcode scanner. You can provide your own mounting structure or Datalogic can design one for you. We recommend using a Datalogic mounting structure for standard applications.
Page 29: Mounting The Scanner
Installation Mounting the Scanner The DX8210 can be installed to operate in any position. There are screw holes (M6 X 8) on the sides and back of the scanner for mounting. The diagram below can be used for installation; refer to your application drawing for correct posi- tioning of the scanner with respect to the reading zone and scanner orientation.

As you plan and install your scanner(s), be sure to keep the following guidelines in mind: •...
Page 37: Dx8210 Connector Panels
DX8210 Connector Panels After completing mechanical installation, use this section to properly wire your scanners for optimal performance in your application. DX8210 wiring connec- tions are made to the connector panel and through the CBX connection box (connected to the I/O port of the scanner). In most applications, the cable con- nections to the scanner will include: 1.
Page 38: Connecting A Pc To The Dx8210
Electrical Installation Connecting a PC to the DX8210 During initial setup, a PC (laptop) may be connected to the DX8210 with a M12 to RJ45 cable. Screw the M12 connector to the ETH 2 port of the scanner and plug the RJ45 into the Ethernet port of your PC. If the ETH 2 port is in use, ETH 1 see Chapter .
Page 39: Cbx510 Connection Box
The CBX connection boxes provide flexible connectivity to a range of I/O devices as well as serial hosting. The DX8210 connects to the CBX via its I/O port using a single 17-pin M12 to 25-pin D cable. The CBX connection box also provides space for an optional BM100 backup module (recommended) for parameter stor- age, allowing quick replacement and configuration of the scanners.

PackTrack™ PackTrack™ PackTrack is a patented operating mode for Datalogic Omni-Directional Reading Stations used to read and correctly assign codes read on different packs when placed in the scanner Reading Area at the same time. In fact, in the following example, the codes of two or more consecutive packs are found at the same time in the scanner reading area.

Other layouts require the use of a specific SC5000 Controller model. The accessories and cables indicated in the following figures are Datalogic prod- ucts. We suggest their use to guarantee the correct system functioning.
Page 259: Large Synchronized Network Layout
Typical Layouts Large Synchronized Network Layout When building a large local EBC (Ethernet Based Connectivity) network an SC5000 Controller should be used together with a PWR-480B power supply unit. In this case the SC5000 unit acts as the system master and is connected to the host through one of its interfaces.
Page 260 The remaining part of the layout (scanners, PWR etc.) does not change. As already mentioned, the CBX510 can also be used to wire the Trigger and Encoder signals (and other I/O) as an alternative to the M12 connection. DX8210 Barcode Scanner...
Page 261 Typical Layouts For applications having regular shaped packs, the default settings are sufficient, but for Airport applications working in PackTrack Operating Mode, irregular shaped packs can cause PS signal glitches resulting in false "packs too short" or "packs too close" errors. To correct this, set the following Operating Modes parameters: Minimum Dis- tance Between Packs = 200 mm, Minimum Pack Length = 200 mm, Window Dimension = 200 mm.
Page 262: Advanced Code Reconstruction (Acr™)
With just a set of partial scans on the label (obtained using the motion of the label itself), the DX8210 is able to “reconstruct” the barcode. A typical set of partial scans is shown in the figure below: None of the partial scans contains the whole label.
Page 263 , depending on standard a values of 45° and 30°. DX8210 scanners provide omnidirectional reading by dividing the scan line into two legs, which produce a cross pattern where angle is fixed for each leg (see figure below).
