Device overview
3.1.1
About the DCR 40 scan engine
The code reader is based on a scan engine with CMOS imager with integrated decoder for all of the most
popular 1D and 2D codes such as DataMatrix, Aztec, QR Code, 2/5 Interleaved, Code 39, Code 128, UPC/
EAN etc.
3.1.2
Stand-alone operation
The scan engine is operated as a single "stand-alone" device. It is equipped with a 12-pin FFC connector
for the power supply electrical connection, the interface, the trigger input, and the switching output.
3.2
Performance characteristics
• High-performance miniature CMOS imager scan engine
• Compact design for simple integration, even in constrained spaces
• Reading of extremely small high-density codes and recording of standard codes in a large reading area
using a special optical system
• Reading of shiny surfaces using a gloss reduction process
• Excellent decoding characteristics
• Clearly visible alignment LED
• RS 232 interface, triggering input, switching output
