  • Page 9: Chapter 1 Getting Started

    Chapter 1 Getting Started Introduction The EM3296 V4 includes an aiming LED and two illumination LEDs. LED Compliance Statement The EM3296 V4 complies with IEC 62471:2006 for LED safety. The EM3296 V4 contains: • a CMOS image sensor and its lens •...
  • Page 10: Illumination

    Illumination The EM3296 V4 has two red LEDs (wavelength: 625±10nm) for supplementary lighting, making it possible to scan barcodes even in complete darkness. The illumination can be programmed On or Off. Aimer The EM3296 V4 contains a red LED aimer to help the user to easily position the target barcode within the engine’s field of view to increase scan efficiency.

    Chapter 2 Installation Introduction This chapter explains how to install the EM3296 V4, including general requirements, housing design, and physical and optical information. △ Caution: Do not touch the imaging lens when installing the engine. Be careful not to leave fingerprints on the lens. !...
  • Page 12: Thermal Considerations

    Thermal Considerations Electronic components in the EM3296 V4 will generate heat during the course of their operation. Operating the EM3296 V4 in continuous mode for an extended period may cause temperatures to rise on CPU, CIS, LEDs, DC-DC, etc. Overheating can degrade image quality and affect scanning performance.
  • Page 13: Mounting

    Mounting The illustrations below show the mechanical mounting dimensions (unit: mm) for the EM3296 V4. Figure 2-2 Housing Design ※ Note: Conduct an optical analysis for the housing design to ensure optimal scanning and imaging performance. Housing design should make sure that internal reflections from the aiming and illumination system are not directed back to the engine.
  • Page 14: Optics

    Optics The EM3296 V4 uses a sophisticated optical system. An improperly designed internal housing or improper selection of window material can degrade the engine’s performance. Window Placement The window should be positioned properly to let the illumination and aiming beams pass through as much as possible and no reflections back into the engine (reflections can degrade the reading performance of the engine).
