There is a range of reading distances available for different code
sizes and focus positions. To set focus on your reader, use the Focus
Feedback option on the Setup Tool’s Results Display pane.
For maximizing the performance of 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
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
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.
Page 10
18 DataMan 503 Quick Reference Guide DataMan 503 Quick Reference Guide 19
Position the reader in a way that the focus
column becomes green. This makes sure that
the lens is in focus and you will be able to
decode the image.
Setting Focus (Continued)
3. The Focus Feedback column is displayed in colors ranging from red (bad
focus) through yellow to green (sharp focus).
CONNECT YOUR READER
1. Connect the I/O+24V cable to your reader.
2. For a network connection, connect your reader, through an Ethernet
cable, to your network.
3. Connect the cable to a 24V power supply. Safety Note: Do not use

Troubleshooting an Ethernet Connection
Based on your network conguration, 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 Conguration
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 503 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 congure the reader with
parameters that allow it to communicate over your Ethernet network.
Industrial Protocols
The DataMan 503 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 Conguration codes (see Reader
Conguration 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).
Select industrial
protocol samples and
tools you want to use
when you install the
DataMan Software.
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.

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 conguration
(.cfg) le, which contains information such as the enabled symbologies and
how any output data should be formatted.
The same conguration le can be loaded onto multiple readers, as the le
does not contain identication information such as the IP address or device
name of the reader used to create it.
A reader can also generate a Cognex device conguration (.cdc) le, which
stores the set of runtime parameters plus any identication data, such as
the name of the device, its IP address, subnet mask, and so on. Cognex
recommends generating a device conguration 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.

DataMan 503 Triggering
DataMan 503 supports self-triggered operation. In self-trigger mode,
at an interval you congure, the reader automatically detects and
decodes codes in its eld of view. The high-speed image acquisition
and processing capabilities of the DataMan 503 allow it to detect and
decode codes at up to 80 codes per second, multiple decodes per scan.
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.
DataMan 503 also supports these additional trigger modes:
• 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 specied in multicode mode are located, or until the trigger
Page 15

• Press the trigger button on
the reader.
• Send a pulse on the I/O cable:
• Trigger + (red/blue)
• Trigger - (white)
• Send a trigger command over
the RS-232 connection or
Ethernet connection.
• Press <CTRL>-T on the
keyboard.
• Click the Trigger button in the

is released. You can congure your reader to acquire images based on the start
and stop signal from separate digital IO pulses.
DataMan 503 Triggering (Continued)
Multi-Reader Triggering
For trigger modes other than Presentation, the DataMan 503 supports
multi-reader triggering, also known as master-slave conguration. In
this conguration, you congure multiple DataMan 503 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 congure 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.
Page 16
30 DataMan 503 Quick Reference Guide DataMan 503 Quick Reference Guide 31
Synchronized Acquisition
In Single, Burst, Continuous, and Self trigger modes, it is possible to
synchronize image acquisition on multiple devices using the synchronization
interface.
Synchronization allows using one shared strobed illumination to expose all
sensors simultaneously. You can synchronize up to 16 readers, with optionally
triggering them in a dened sequence to avoid that opposing readers blind
each other.
Note that this and other imager settings will not get synchronized by this
mechanism - for example, you must congure exposure and gain on each
reader individually.
This feature only synchronizes the actual image acquisition, triggering happens
through the existing master-slave mechanism.
Enable Synchronized Exposure on the Setup Tool’s Master/Slave pane.
Set the Acquisition Delay (µs) (relative to the received signal through the
synchronization interface) on each reader individually to optionally dene an
exposure sequence in case the illumination of some readers might affect other
readers.
You must also set which two readers on the ends of the synchronization
interface bus are bus terminators by checking the End of Sync Cable
checkbox for the currently connected devices at the end of a sync cable.
Training the Reader
Training your reader with the expected symbology can decrease the
time required to decode successive symbols. To train your reader, rst
switch to Single mode, then 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 now switch to Burst, Continuous or Self trigger modes if
necessary. NOTE that only a single symbol of each symbology kind can
be trained.
• Upload the code through File menu Train Image.
Page 17
32 DataMan 503 Quick Reference Guide DataMan 503 Quick Reference Guide 33
Training Feedback
The middle LED 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.
Script-Based Data Formatting
In addition to standard formatting possibilities, you have the option to
write a script inside the Setup Tool. When script-based formatting is
enabled, you can dene a JavaScript module to format data according
to your needs.
The script 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 congure read results
exibly and congure reader events before the result returns.
Enter your script on the
Script-Based Formatting
pane under Data Formatting.
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 Script-Based Formatting
pane.
You can open your own
scripts through the Setup
Tool’s File menu Open
Script... option.

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.
The acquisition trigger input on the reader is opto-isolated. To trigger
from an NPN (pull-down) type photo-detector or PLC output, connect
In 0 to +24V and connect Common In to the output of the detector.
When the output turns on, it pulls Common In down to 0V, turning the
opto-coupler on.
To trigger from an PNP (pull-up) photo-detector or PLC output, connect
In 0 to the output of the detector and connect Common In to 0V.
When the output turns on, it pulls In 0 up to 24V, turning the optocoupler ON.

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 (<28V). 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.
