  • Page 58: Manual Focus Lens

    To set the focus on your reader, use the following options depending on whether you use a liquid lens or a manual focus lens. Note: The DataMan Setup Tool has focus sheets that can help you manually adjust lenses or swapping between them. Manual Focus Lens Click the Focus Feedback button in the image panel in SetupTool to enable focus feedback.

  • Page 59: Focus Feedback

    Focus Feedback Focus is indicated by colors ranging from red (bad focus) to green (sharp focus). When focusing the reader, you need to adjust its position until the focus column becomes green. Best Practices Both Optimize Focus and the Focus Feedback use the same procedure for testing the current focus. They consider various sub-regions of the image.
  • Page 60 Note: If you use the focus feedback indicator to adjust a manual focus lens, you must apply power to the reader before you remove the cover. If you remove the cover before applying power, the internal illumination will not function. If you use a Liquid Lens, make sure that the cover is mounted and connected before you apply power.

  • Page 61: Connection Options

    For more information on how to connect your DataMan reader to your network, see the DataMan Communications and Programming Guide. Connecting the Ethernet Cable to DataMan 280 Series Readers CAUTION: The Ethernet cable shield has to be grounded at the far end. If the far end device is not grounded, add a ground wire in compliance with local electrical codes.

  • Page 62: Star Ethercat Topology

    The DataMan 280 EtherCAT supports the following physical topologies: Star Line Ring Note: For detailed information on the supported EtherCAT configurations, see the DataMan Industrial Protocols Manual. Star EtherCAT Topology The star topology connects each reader to the PLC individually. This topology offers increased availability, as each reader can be reached individually.

  • Page 63: Line Ethercat Topology

    Line EtherCAT Topology The line topology connects the readers in daisy chain. The output of one adapter cable is plugged into the input of the next one. The line starts at the output from the PLC, and ends at the input connector of the last reader. This topology reduces the cabling needed to connect all readers.

  • Page 64: Using Your Device Through Usb

    Note: Perform wiring or adjustments to I/O devices when the reader is not receiving power. You can clip unused wires short or use a tie made of non-conductive material to tie them back. Keep bare wires separated from the +24 V DC wire. 1.

  • Page 71: Training Feedback

    Using Your DataMan Reader Training Feedback The second LED from left on the reader glows green to indicate that it is currently trained. If the reader has no trained code, the LED is off. Connect the reader to the DataMan Setup Tool to untrain it and allow it to recognize other enabled symbologies. Incremental Training for Multiple Symbologies If you want to train the reader to recognize multiple symbologies, you can present a single image showing all the desired symbologies and perform the training procedure previously described.

  • Page 72: Dm282 Led Configurations

    Using Your DataMan Reader With incremental training enabled, you can train the reader using multiple images showing the symbologies you expect to decode. The reader will train each new symbology while retaining the existing trained symbologies. DM282 LED Configurations In the DataMan Setup Tool, you can control the primary illumination color of the LED lights of the reader in the Optimize Image tab.
  • Page 73 Using Your DataMan Reader In the Inputs / Outputs pane, you can assign a LED color for the input/output events. For example, you can set a color for a successful read and set a different color for an unsuccessful read. 1.
