  • Page 13: Introduction

    1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The AV7000 Camera is a high performance linear camera with an integrated image processing system dedicated to automatic code identification on moving parcels. This chapter introduces a minimum set of concepts necessary for camera installation and setup.
  • Page 14 (photoelectric sensors, encoders, height sensors, and etc.). A typical reading station will also include:  Power Supply Systems: The AV7000 requires a 24 Vdc power supply. Usually each barcode reader-illuminator pair has its own power supply system (i. e. PWR-480B).
  • Page 15: Image Acquisition

    1.3 IMAGE ACQUISITION Each barcode reader contains two distinct groups of devices:  The acquisition device or "camera." This part of the AV7000 has to work in strict real time to acquire the best possible images.  The decoding device or “decoder." This part of the AV7000 interprets the data received through the camera.
  • Page 16: Pulsed Illumination

    AV7000 LINEAR CAMERA REFERENCE MANUAL 1.4 PULSED ILLUMINATION When building multi-camera stations with standard continuous light illuminators, the illumination areas must be accurately chosen to avoid the illuminator of one camera disturbing the acquisition of another camera. In particular the lobes of the side camera illuminators must not cross over the conveyor belt.
  • Page 17: Applications

    INTRODUCTION 1.5 APPLICATIONS The AV7000 cameras are specifically designed for industrial applications and for all cases requiring high reading performance such as:  Reading low aspect ratio barcodes  Reading of codes covered by plastic film  Reading of codes with a large depth of field ...

    In irregular package applications, the photoelectric sensor assists in maintaining the package footprint so that the AV7000 camera will only scan and provide data for a specific package.
  • Page 24: Area Sensor

    AV7000 LINEAR CAMERA REFERENCE MANUAL 1.11 AREA SENSOR The photoelectric light grids of the AS1 series are crossed-beam area sensors able to detect all objects, with even 0.2mm thickness, inside a 100mm height, over operating distances reaching 3m between emitter and receiver. The AS1 area sensors represent the ideal solution for the detection of very small objects, even when passing in different positions inside the controlled height and width.

    Mounting the unit with 300 mm [12 in] of clearance (front, top, and sides) is recommended for cooling and ease of maintenance. Note: The AV7000 datum is indicated by the dashed line. As indicated, the range to the target is measured from the camera/illumination interface plane.
  • Page 36: Physical Support Requirements

    Datalogic products, parts or related equipment. As you plan and install your AV7000 camera imaging system application, be sure to keep the following guidelines in mind:  Follow application drawings for structural details and barcode reader placement.
  • Page 37: Scanning Station Frame/Mounting Structure Preparation And Positioning

    MECHANICAL INSTALLATION  It provides approximately 300 mm [12 in] minimum clearance on all sides. This clearance is necessary to provide proper ventilation, allow access to all panels of the barcode reader, and allow room for proper servicing. 2.4.6 Scanning Station Frame/Mounting Structure Preparation and Positioning The vision system components and in particular the mounting brackets have been designed for installation onto standard Bosch and 80/20 frame profiles (extrusions) and accessories.
  • Page 38: Mounting Rails

    AV7000 LINEAR CAMERA REFERENCE MANUAL 2.4.7 Mounting Rails The Camera/Illuminator and Deflection Mirror are mounted to mounting structure rails, as shown below. Typically, the rising brackets are mounted to the rails, but in some cases it may be necessary to mount the camera and deflection mirror between the mounting rails.
  • Page 39: Illuminator Bracket Pre-Assembly And Mounting

    MECHANICAL INSTALLATION 2.4.8 Illuminator Bracket Pre-Assembly and Mounting The mounting brackets have been designed specifically to quicken, simplify and facilitate vision system mounting. These brackets have universal mounting configurations and reference slots for all standard mounting angles allowing all of the standard Camera mounting positions to be made without the use of special tools.
  • Page 40 AV7000 LINEAR CAMERA REFERENCE MANUAL AV7000/AI7000 Top/Bottom Mounting Bracket Assembly and Mounting Both Top and Bottom Camera positions require the same pre-assembly of the Illuminator Bracket. Figure 26: Bracket Assembly for Top and Bottom Mounted Cameras (Exploded View 90°) Figure 27: Bracket Assembly for Top and Bottom Mounted Cameras (Assembled 90°)
  • Page 41 (Top, Side, or Bottom), the basic sequence is the same: 1. Mount the cooling fan to the AV7000 camera (See section 2.4.11). 2. Pre-assemble the Illuminator brackets according to the application.
  • Page 42 AV7000 LINEAR CAMERA REFERENCE MANUAL AV7000/AI7000 Side Mounting Bracket Assembly and Mounting The illustrations below show how the brackets are assembled, and how the AI7000 Illumination is then mounted to the brackets. Typically, the brackets are pre-assembled and attached to the mounting structure, and then the illumination is mounted to its brackets. The Support Bracket (green in the figure) passes through the Main Bracket (blue).
  • Page 43 MECHANICAL INSTALLATION Although both brackets will be mounted having 25 mm [1 in] between the Support Bracket (green) surface and the Rising Bracket (red) surface, for mounting purposes the "top" bracket should be pre-assembled so that this distance is 0 mm/in. This will provide clearance when placing the camera/illuminator between the mounted brackets.
  • Page 44 AV7000 LINEAR CAMERA REFERENCE MANUAL AV7000 Side Mounting Sequence: 1. Mount the cooling fan to the AV7000 camera (See section 2.4.11). 2. Pre-assemble the Illuminator brackets according to the application. 3. Mount the bracket to the station frame. 4. Place the lower end of the illumination on the bottom bracket, and then tilt the top end of the illumination in line with the top bracket.

  • Page 48: Mounting The Av7000 Camera To The Ai7000 Illuminator

    Mounting the fan to the camera housing The AV7000 Camera is shipped without the cooling fan attached to the top of the housing. Before mounting the camera to the illuminator, first mount the fan to the camera housing, as shown below.
  • Page 49 MECHANICAL INSTALLATION Mounting the Camera to the Illuminator After the cooling fan has been installed on the camera housing, the camera can be mounted to the illuminator as follows: 1. Make sure the illuminator is firmly mounted to the mounting structure. 2.
  • Page 50 AV7000 LINEAR CAMERA REFERENCE MANUAL 4. Push the camera in place against the back of the illumination and secure it by turning a mounting bolt through the camera housing and into one of the mounting holes in the illuminator. Finger-tighten the bolt for now to secure the camera and prevent it from slipping out of the illumination.
  • Page 51: Installing The Deflection Mirror

    MECHANICAL INSTALLATION 2.5 INSTALLING THE DEFLECTION MIRROR The external deflection mirror allows the AV7000 Camera to be mounted parallel to the conveyor, which can save space while allowing the light from the illuminator and image view to be angled for precise image capture.

    AV7000 LINEAR CAMERA REFERENCE MANUAL Deflection mirrors for bottom mounted AV7000 Cameras should be mounted to create an 8- degree view angle (from vertical). However, the angle must be set up manually because there is no locking hole in the bracket for this angle. Using an electronic angle finder, tilt the mirror 41-degrees off the horizontal, as shown below.
