Chapter 2 Installation Introduction This chapter explains how to install the EM20-85, 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 11: Thermal Considerations
Thermal Considerations Electronic components in the EM20-85 will generate heat during the course of their operation. Operating the EM20-85 in continuous mode for an extended period may cause temperatures to rise on CPU, CIS, LEDs, etc. Overheating can degrade image quality and affect scanning performance. Given that, the following precautions should be taken into consideration when integrating the EM20-85. -

Mounting The illustrations below show the mechanical mounting dimensions (unit: mm) for the EM20-85. Figure 2-1... -
Page 13: Housing Design
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. The reflections from the housing or window can cause problems. Avoid any highly reflective objects around the engine that can cause bright spots to appear in the captured image. -
Page 14: Window Material And Color
Window Material and Color Window material must be clear. Use only cell-cast plastics or optical glass. PMMA and chemically tempered glass are recommended. Window material selected for the engine should meet or exceed the specifications specified in Table 2-2. When using a clear plastic window, it is recommended to apply anti-reflection (AR) coating on it. •... -
Page 15: Coatings And Scratch Resistance
Coatings and Scratch Resistance Scratch on the window can greatly reduce the performance of the EM20-85. It is suggested to use abrasion resistant window material or coating. The following introduces two commonly-used types of coatings: • Anti-reflection coatings: Anti-reflection (AR) coatings can be applied to window surfaces to reduce reflected light from the window back into the engine. -

Window Size The window must not block the field of view and should be sized to accommodate the FOV envelopes shown below. Horizontal: Figure 2-3 Vertical: Figure 2-4... -
Page 17: Roll, Skew And Pitch
Three different reading angles, roll, skew and pitch are illustrated in Figure 2-6. Roll refers to rotation around the Z axis, skew to rotation around the X axis and pitch to rotation around the Y axis. For the engine’s technical specifications, please visit the Newland website or contact your dealer. Figure 2-5 Ambient Light The EM20-85 shows better performance with ambient light. -
Page 18: Chapter 3 Interfaces
Chapter 3 Interfaces Interface Pinouts The physical interface of the EM20-85 consists of a 8-pin box connector and a 12-pin FPC connector: • 8-pin box connector can be used as RS-232 interface or USB interface. • 12-pin FPC connector can be used as TTL-232 interface or USB interface. The figure below illustrates the position of connectors on the EM20-85. -
