Datalogic Connection Box C-BOX 100 Instruction Manual

C-BOX 100
Instruction Manual
The C-BOX 100 is a connection box which can be used as an accessory
to several Datalogic family scanners to facilitate the system connections.
System cabling is made through spring clamp terminal blocks inside the
C-BOX 100 while the scanner is connected to the C-BOX 100 through a
25-pin connector placed on the left side of the housing.
A 9-pin connector placed inside the C-BOX 100 facilitates connection
between an external PC and the auxiliary serial interface of the scanner
for configuration or data monitoring.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
ATTENTION: READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE INSTALLING THE PRODUCT
POWER SUPPLY
This product is intended to be installed by Qualified Personnel only.
This device is intended to be supplied by a UL Listed NEC Class 2 power
source, rated 10-30V, minimum 0.50A.
The overall value of power consumption of the
system (C-BOX 100 + scanner) is given by adding
the scanner power consumption to that of the C-BOX
100. Refer to the manual of the connected scanner
CAUTION
for details about minimum/maximum supply voltage
and power consumption.
SUPPORTED SCANNER MODELS
The C-BOX 100 can be connected to the following readers through the
25-pin connector illustrated in Figure A.

* It is necessary to use 10-30 V versions for DS1100 and DS2200
scanners.
OPENING THE DEVICE
To install the C-BOX 100 or during normal maintenance, it is necessary
to open it by unscrewing the four cover screws:
The C-BOX 100 must be disconnected from the
power supply during this operation.

Figure 2 – System Layout
The dotted line in the figure refers to an optional (temporary) hardware
configuration in which a portable PC can be quickly connected to the C-
BOX 100 (and consequently to the scanner auxiliary interface) through
the internal 9-pin connector. This allows monitoring of the data
transmitted by the scanner or configuration through the utility program
(see the scanner Installation Manual for more details). The scanner
auxiliary interface signals are also available on the internal spring clamp
2D Readers/Cameras
connectors.
MATRIX-1XXX DV9500
After making system cabling and switch settings, connect the scanner to
MATRIX-2XXX
the 25-pin connector on the left side of the C-BOX 100 housing.
Switch ON the C-BOX 100 power switch (see Figure 3). The correct
polarity of the power connection is signaled by the green LED, while the
red LED turns on in case of wrong polarity.
Power is supplied to the connected scanner (25-pin
connector only) through an electronic circuit which:
limits the inrush current; provides short circuit
protection and over current protection (automatic
retry).
NOTE
After system functioning has been verified, close the C-BOX 100 using
the 4 cover screws making sure the rubber seal is fitted correctly
between the parts of the housing.
POWER SUPPLY
Power is supplied to the C-BOX 100 through the pins provided on the
spring clamp connector.
The power switch (see Figure 3) switches the power supply ON or OFF
for both the C-BOX 100 and the connected scanner.

Pin 1 is also electrically connected to pins 3 and 5,
just as pin 2 is electrically connected to pins 4 and 6.
This is useful for external trigger/inputs connections.
NOTE
The power supply must be between 10 and 30 Vdc only.

SYSTEM WIRING
The connection and wiring procedure for C-BOX 100 is described as
follows:
1) Open the C-BOX 100 by unscrewing the 4 cover screws.
2) Verify that the C-BOX 100 power switch is off (see Figure 3).
3) Unscrew the compression connectors and pass all the system
cables through them into the C-BOX 100 housing.
4) To connect the power and input/output signals:
• Prepare the individual wires of the system cables by stripping
the insulation back approximately 1 cm.
• Using a device such as a screwdriver, push down on the lever
directly next to the clamp (see Figure 6).
• Insert the wire into the clamp and release the lever.
The wire will now be held in the spring clamp.

The wiring used can be solid or stranded but must meet the following
specifications.

CHASSIS GROUNDING JUMPER SETTINGS
USER INTERFACE
The scanner chassis grounding method can be selected by positioning a
jumper (see Figure 7). In this way the scanner chassis can be
connected to earth ground (only if pins 7 or 8 are connected to a good
V+ (10 - 30 Vdc)
earth ground). For 1, 2, or 4K scanners the chassis can alternatively be
connected to the power supply ground signal (GND) or it can be left
GND floating but, in this case, the jumper must be removed. For 6, 8K
scanners the chassis is internally connected to GND.
In order for C-BOX 100 to accept
power from the scanner through the
25-pin connector, a solder bridge
must be made at the two pads
indicated in Figure 5.
This is useful for example, to pass
power to connected accessories
such as Encoder and Presence
Sensor from DX8200A VAC models
or other scanner layouts. See the
relative scanner Reference Manual
for details.
