External Light Mounting Brackets

You can mount your reader using external light mounting brackets. The brackets are intended to mount any of the different lights to the reader. They can also be used to mount the reader (with lights attached) to your machine. Pivot mounting, as illustrated, is optional. Perform the following steps:

1. Mount your reader on the camera plate and attach the screws.

2. Mount your reader with the camera plate attached to any of the external light bracket adapters.

Choose one of the following light options:

36 DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide 37

Setting Focus

There is a range of reading distances available for different code sizes and focus positions. To set focus on your reader, use the following options depending on whether you use a liquid lens or a manual focus lens.

Liquid Lens Manual Focus Lens

Focus Feedback (Results Display) Focus Feedback (Results Display)

Optimize Focus (Focus Settings)

Focus Sweep (Focus Settings)

For setting Focus Sweep, follow these guidelines:

• If your application has a consistent reading range, set the focus

range to a limited depth of eld with no steps (for example, set it to

20) or with limited steps (for example, set it to 2 steps between 0 and 30). This way you can achieve fast performance.

• If your application has a variety of code types and sizes, set the focus

range to a wider depth of eld with increased number of steps (for

example, set it to 6 steps between 0 and 200). This way you can get better coverage.

Both Optimize Focus and the Focus Feedback use the same procedure for testing the current focus. They consider various subregions of the image.

For maximizing the performance of Optimize Focus and Focus Feedback, observe the following:

• Use a focus target (such as the one supplied with this Quick Reference Guide) that includes high-contrast features and is big

enough that it lls at least a 100x100 pixel region in the center of the eld of view at the desired working distance.

• Make sure the target is perfectly at (avoid oppy pieces of paper).

• Make sure that the target is perfectly perpendicular to the optical axis of the reader.

• Make sure that the rest of the eld of view (such as the part not covered by the focus target) does not contain any high-contrast

features. For example, you would ideally ll the entire eld of view

with a white card or sheet of paper (no shadows), then position the focus target in the middle.

• The supplied focus target (120x120mm) is appropriate for typical working distances. If you are using a working distance such that the

38 DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide 39

target does not completely ll the image, make sure that there are no high-

contrast features visible outside of the target (see previous bullet).

Setting Focus (Continued)

Perform the following steps to use Focus Feedback:

1. Connect the reader to the Setup Tool.

2. On the Results Display pane, check the Focus Feedback option and enable Live Display.

3. The Focus Feedback column is displayed in colors ranging from red (bad focus) through yellow to green (sharp focus).

Position the reader in a way that the focus column becomes green. The maximum focus peak gets locked for better orientation. When the focus column is green, the lens is in focus and you will be able to decode the image.

For the C-mount (or other non-Cognex) S-Mount lenses, the lens’s focal

length, focus setting, and aperture setting determine the eld of view

and reading distance.

Field of View and Reading Distances

The following maps show the eld of view of the DataMan 300 series

readers. Reading distance values are also provided for 1-D and 2-D example code distances.

Notes:

If you are using 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 are using a Liquid Lens, make sure that the cover is mounted and connected before you apply power. If you attach or remove the front cover while the reader is powered, the focus settings will be lost.

Troubleshooting an Ethernet Connection

Based on your network conguration, the Setup Tool may not be able to

communicate with the reader and it will not appear in the list of Network devices.

First check your Ethernet connection with the reader and click Refresh in the Setup Tool. Next, scan the Enable DHCP code in the Reader Conguration Codes document available from the Start menu. This might allow the reader to acquire a suitable IP address from a DHCP server on your subnet.

If the reader still does not appear, you can use either the Add Device or Force Network Settings options in the Setup Tool.

If you know the IP address of the reader, use the Add Device option. If you do not know the IP address, use the Force Network Settings options. Either method should allow the DataMan 300 series reader to appear in the list of Network devices so that you can connect to it through the Setup Tool and your Ethernet connection.

You can also use the RS-232 connection to congure the reader with

parameters that allow it to communicate over your Ethernet network.

Use the Setup Tool Menu Bar

The In1 button on the toolbar creates a virtual rising edge signal on Input 1. Use the In1 button to activate various actions such as training a code, optimizing brightness or setting a match string without a physical input 1 channel.

Each reader can store its current set of runtime parameters to a

conguration (.cfg) le, which contains information such as the enabled

symbologies and how any output data should be formatted.

The same conguration le can be loaded onto multiple readers, as the le does not contain identication information such as the IP address or

device name of the reader used to create it.

A reader can also generate a Cognex device conguration (.cdc) le, which stores the set of runtime parameters plus any identication

data, such as the name of the device, its IP address, subnet mask, and

so on. Cognex recommends generating a device conguration le for

each reader to allow you to restore a reader to its operating state with minimal effort.

Use the File menu of the Setup Tool to manage .cfg and .cdc les, export parameters, or to load, save, or train uploaded images.

Industrial Protocols

The DataMan 300 series readers support the following industrial protocols:

• EtherNet/IP™

• PROFINET

• MC Protocol

• Modbus TCP

There are three ways to enable or disable Industrial Protocols. Using either method, a reboot is required for the changes to come into effect.

• Enable the protocols using the Industrial Protocols pane of the Setup Tool (under Communication Settings).

• Scan the appropriate Reader Conguration codes (see Reader Conguration Codes available through the Windows Start menu or the Setup Tool Help menu).

• Send the appropriate DMCC (see Command Reference available through the Windows Start menu or the Setup Tool Help menu).

For more information on using the industrial protocols, read the DataMan Communications and Programming Guide available through the Windows Start

menu or the Setup Tool Help menu.

Select industrial protocol samples and tools you want to use when you install the DataMan Software.

Test Mode

Test mode lets you congure and test a reader that is connected to a

production line without needing to slow down or stop your line. To enter Test mode,

• Press the button (to which you previously assigned this function) on the device for 3 seconds

• Send a DataMan Control Command (DMCC)

• Click the Test Mode button in the Setup Tool

While in test mode, the reader by default ignores all external trigger sources and disables all input and output lines.

Check Automatic Triggering, and the reader will simulate external triggers at the interval that you specify. Click Accept Trigger Batch, and the reader will accept and process a limited number of external triggers at production speed. In both cases, you can view images and decodes using production settings but at a slower rate and without sending output signals to your line.

For more information, see the Fixed Mount Reference.

60 DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide 61

DataMan 300 Series Triggering

DataMan 300 series readers support the following trigger modes:

• Self: At an interval you congure, the reader automatically detects and

decodes codes in its eld of view. If you set a higher re-read delay than the

trigger interval, there is a code output only once until the code is out of the

eld of view for the duration of the re-read delay.

• Single (external trigger): Acquires a single image and attempts to decode any symbol it contains, or more than one symbol in cases where multicode is enabled. The reader relies on an external trigger source.

• Presentation: Scans, decodes and reports a single code in the eld of view. The reader relies on an internal timing mechanism to acquire images.

• Manual: Begins acquiring images when you press the trigger button on the reader, and continues acquiring images until a symbol is found and decoded or you release the button.

• Burst: Performs multiple image acquisitions based on an external trigger and decodes any symbol appearing in a single image or within a sequence of images, or multiple symbols in a single image or within a sequence of images when multicode is enabled. You can control the number of images within each burst and the interval between image acquisitions.

• Continuous: Begins acquiring images based on a single external trigger and continues to acquire and decode images until a symbol is found and

decoded, or until multiple images containing as many codes as specied

in multicode mode are located, or until the trigger is released. You can

congure your reader to acquire images based on the start and stop signal

from separate digital IO pulses.

External Triggers

If you are using external triggering you can use any of these methods to trigger your DataMan 300 series reader:

• Press the trigger button on the reader.

• Send a pulse on the I/O cable:

• Trigger + (red)

• Trigger - (black)

• Send a serial trigger command over the RS-232 connection or Ethernet connection.

• Press <CTRL>-T on the keyboard while the Setup Tool has the input focus.

• Click the Trigger button in the Setup Tool:

Multi-Reader Triggering

For trigger modes other than Presentation, the DataMan 300 supports

multi-reader triggering, also known as master-slave conguration. In this conguration, you congure multiple DataMan readers as a group. Whenever

any reader in the group is triggered, all the readers are triggered and the results from all the readers are assembled and transmitted by a single reader that you designate as the master.

Multi-reader triggering is used to support extended eld of view reading and

reading codes from multiple product surfaces:

To congure multi-reader triggering, select the Master/Slave pane in the Setup Tool (under System Settings). For more information, see the DataMan Fixed Mount Readers Reference.

62 DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide 63

DataMan 300 Series Read Setups

Your reader can be

congured for up to 16

different settings. In

Single, Continuous, Self, and Burst trigger modes,

you can enable multiple (or all) setups, and the DataMan 300 series reader goes through all

of the congured imager

combinations until there is a decoded image or there are no images left (that is, a no read image).

You can change the parameters for the setups either on its dedicated pane, or in the Read Setup pane’s appropriate table cell. Whatever you change on either pane is mirrored on the other.

It is possible to congure a variety of acquisition parameters for your DataMan 300 series reader on a unied Read Setups pane.

The currently selected setup also gets represented on other panes.

The read setup process starts with either a specic setup, or the Last

Successful Decode (as you choose).

By tuning, your DataMan 300 series reader automatically selects the best settings for the given reading situation, based on parameters of illumination, camera and decoder properties, and focal distance. Tuning autodisciminates all enabled symbologies (both 1-D and 2-D). If multiple symbols are found in the

eld of view, tuning locks on the rst one found. Use this feature to create an

optimum setting to read your codes.

You can use any of the following methods to tune your reader:

• Press the Tune button at least for 3

seconds on your reader. The rst press

starts the tuning, and the second press cancels the tuning, if it is still ongoing.

• Turn on tuning in the Setup Tool.

• Start tuning by sending a DMCC, for more information, see the Command Reference, available through the Windows Start menu or the Setup Tool Help menu.

• Use Input line 1 for tuning. Go to the Setup Tool’s System Settings pane and check Tune. You can also use the In1 button on the toolbar.

You can dene a stack of lters to be applied to each image acquired by your DataMan 300 series reader. You can select the following lters

on the Setup Tool’s Image Filtering pane (under Light and Imager Settings):

• Equalize

This lter redistributes the brightness values of the pixels in the image.

As a result, the range of brightness levels are more evenly represented.

Use this lter if you have too dark or too bright images.

• Stretch

This lter linearly scales up or stretches the greyscale values in the input

image to the full 256-step greyscale. The result is an output image with increased contrast.

• Low Pass

Using this lter results in output images where edges are smoothed or

blurred.

• Dilate

This lter increases bright features and shrinks dark features. The result is an output image with larger areas of bright pixels. Use this lter to

remove dark specks.

• Erode

This lter shrinks bright features and increases dark features. The result is an output image with larger areas of dark pixels. Use this lter to

remove light specks.

• Open

This lter performs an erosion followed by a dilation to lter out bright

features that are smaller than the size of the processing neighborhood. The result is an output image with slightly decreased overall brightness.

64 DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide 65

DataMan 300 Series Tuning

DataMan 300 Series Image Filtering

• Close

This lter performs a dilation followed by an erosion to lter out dark features

that are smaller than the size of the processing neighborhood. The result is an output image with slightly increased overall brightness.

• Auto Stretch

This lter reduces the pixel value range. It maps the pixel values from 0 to

255.

• Optical Density

This lter species an inversion of pixel values based on a logarithmic scale.

The result is an output image that reveals the density of objects and features in the input image by measuring the amount of light that passes through them. Denser objects and features are represented by lighter pixels in the output image.

• Invert

This lter species an inversion of pixel values based on the 256-step

greyscale. The result is an output image that is a “negative” of the input image.

To use Image Filtering, perform the following steps:

1. On the Image Filtering pane, click Add.

2. Select a lter from the Filter Properties drop-down box. You can add more

than one lter. You can also specify the order in which ltering is done by moving the lters using the Up and Down buttons.

3. If the lter you selected require further settings, change properties according to your needs.

4. Change the selection in the Image to Use group box according to

the symbology you want to be ltered (after making sure that that

Symbology is enabled):

If no image is read, the Results Display shows the image according to your selection under No-Read Image.

66 DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide 67

DataMan 300 Series Image Filtering (Continued)

5. Go to the Displayed Image Settings pane and change the Images to Use according to what you want to see on Live Display: the original or the

ltered image.

6. You can compare the original and ltered results on the Results Display if you choose the images from the Read Result History.

The example images were taken using the

Equalize lter.

Training the Reader

Training your reader with the expected symbology can make the time required to decode successive symbols more consistent. In addition, training may help increase decode yield.

To train your reader, place a code in front of the reader and do one of the following:

• Press and hold the trigger button for a minimum of 3 seconds.

• Click and hold the trigger button in the Setup Tool for a minimum of 3 seconds.

• Click Train Code in the Results Display pane.

You can use training in Single, Burst, Continuous or Self trigger modes.

NOTE that only a single symbol of each symbology kind can be trained.

• Upload the code through File menu  Train Image.

DataMan 300 Series Image Filtering (Continued)

70 DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide 71

Training Feedback

The second LED from left on the reader glows green to indicate that it is currently trained, or yellow to indicate that it is not trained.

Connect the reader to the 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.

If you cannot present a single image showing all the necessary symbologies, you can enable incremental training on the Training tab of the Symbology Settings pane:

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.

Scripting

Training the Reader (Continued)

In addition to standard formatting possibilities, you have the option to write a script inside the Setup Tool. On the Script-Based Formatting

tab, when script-based formatting is enabled, you can dene a

JavaScript module to format data according to your needs. The FTP Storage tab is for writing scripts to generate FTP le names.

The script for data formatting not only allows you to have different data formatting combinations, but you can also perform operations on the

output channel, for example, to pull output 1 up. You can congure read results exibly and congure reader events before the result returns.

For the details of how to write the script and for scripting examples, please see the

DataMan Communications and Programming Guide. You can

nd scripting samples in the

right-click context menu of the Scripting pane.

You can open your own scripts through the Setup Tool’s File menu  Open Script... option.

72 DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide DataMan 300 Quick Reference Guide 73

Package Detection Support

You can connect your package detection sensor to one of the digital inputs of your DataMan reader. When the reader receives a signal that a package is detected, images that the reader collected are not discarded at the end of the trigger. This way you can make sure that there was a package there, only the

code was not readable. Looking at the No Read images will help you nd out

why there was no decode results.

Package detection is only supported with Continuous trigger mode.

To make sure that the No Read images are collected, perform the following:

1. Connect your package detection device to one of the Inputs of your reader.

2. On the Setup Tool’s System Settings pane’s Inputs tab, check Allow Buffered No-Read Images on the input you connected your reader to.

3. On the Setup Tool’s Image Record and Playback pane, change What Images to Buffer to All, or No Read.

• In case of All, good reads are also saved together with No Reads.

• In case of No Read the image is buffered if the reader fails to read.

For more information, see the DataMan Fixed Mount Readers Reference, available through the Windows Start menu or the Setup Tool Help menu.

High-Speed Output Lines

The high-speed outputs can be used as either NPN (pull-down) or PNP (pull-up) lines. For NPN lines, the external load should be connected between the output and the positive supply voltage (<26.4V). The outputs pull down to less than 3V when ON, which causes current to

ow through the load. When the outputs are OFF, no current ows

through the load.

Specification Description

Voltage 26.4V maximum through external load

Current 50mA maximum sink current

OFF state leakage current 100µA

External load resistance 240 Ohms to 10K Ohms
