STEP 3 – FOCUS THE SCANNER
The reading distance depends on the focus distance of the scanner and should be set
according to the application requirements. The Focus Position is set directly through the
focus adjustment screw on the front panel of the scanner. This screw moves the internal lens
of the scanner to change the focal point of the scanner. The setting is continuous but should
not be set beyond the limits "Too Far" or "Too Near" which appear on the display at the
extremes of the focus range. Although the scanner reads across the entire focus range, there
are three guaranteed positions which correspond to the reading diagrams in par. 6.4.
1. Power up the scanner. For Subzero models, At -35 °C, a 20-
minute warm-up period is required before the scanner is
ready to read barcodes, the Ready LED blinks. Wait for the
power up sequence to finish. By default the scanner focus is in
the Unlocked position. The alternating message on the display
shows the mechanical Focus Position as well as the message
“Please Lock Focus!” on the scanner display.
2. Using a screwdriver turn the focus adjustment screw in the
desired direction, clockwise (focus nearer to the scanner) or
counterclockwise (focus farther from the scanner). The focus
position in centimeters and inches is shown on the scanner
display.
NOTE: After correctly focusing the scanner, it is strongly recommended to store
the value of the Focus Position in memory (Locked Position parameter). When
Locked, if the mechanical position changes by more than the allowed tolerance
of the value in memory, a diagnostic alarm will be sent to the display. See the
Focus Lock function in step 4, X-PRESS Configuration.
As an additional visual aid during focusing, the indicator LEDs show the relative focus
position as follows:

STEP 4 – X-PRESS CONFIGURATION
X-PRESS is the intuitive Human Machine Interface designed to improve ease of installation
and maintenance.
Status and diagnostic information are clearly presented by means of the colored LEDs,
whereas the single push button gives immediate access to the following relevant functions:
AutoSetup to self-optimize and auto-configure reading
performance in demanding applications
AutoLearn to self-detect and auto-configure for
reading unknown barcodes (by type and length)
Focus Lock to memorize the mechanical focus
position
Test Mode with bar graph visualization to check static
reading performance
EBC/Profinet-IO network selection to set the scanner
as a Slave in an EBC network. (only for on-board
Profinet 2 port models).
NOTE: When entering the X-PRESS interface on the DS5100-xx2x the
Oscillating Mirror remains in the default fixed position (0°) in order to make
barcode reading easier while performing the X-PRESS functions.
The colors and meaning of the indicator LEDs are illustrated in the following table:
LED
Color
Description
READY
Green
Indicates the device is ready to operate. For Subzero models this
LED blinks during the warm-up phase.
GOOD
Green

TRIGGER
Yellow
Indicates the status of the reading phase. *
COM
Yellow
Indicates active communication on main serial port. **
STATUS
Red
Indicates a NO READ result.
ETH2
Yellow
Indicates connection to the on-board Profinet-IO network port 2.
Not used on other models.
ETH1
Yellow

Profinet-IO network port 1. Not used on Serial models.
PWR
Blue
Indicates that the reader is connected to the power supply.
* In On-Line mode the TRIGGER LED corresponds to the active reading phase signaled by the Presence Sensor.
In Automatic and Continuous modes the TRIGGER LED is always on indicating that the reader is ready to read a
code.
** When connected to a Fieldbus network through a Host Interface Module inside the CBX500 or through a QLM,
the COM LED is always active, even in the absence of data transmission, because of polling activity on the
Fieldbus network.
During the reader startup (reset or restart phase), the first five LEDs blink for one second.

Auto Learn
If you are configuring your scanner using X-PRESS, you must start with the Auto Learn
procedure.
1. Enter the Auto Learn function by holding the X-PRESS push button pressed until the
LEARN LED is on.
2. Release the button to enter the Auto Learn function.
Once entered, the reader starts a procedure to automatically detect and recognize
barcodes (by type and length), which are presented to it (*). The laser turns on and the
LEARN LED blinks to indicate the ongoing process.
Figure 7 – X-PRESS Interface: Auto Learn Function
The procedure is as follows:
A) place the desired barcode on the
scanline.
B) wait until the LEARN LED stays
steady on (indicating the reader
has detected the barcode).
C) repeat, if needed, the above two
steps to program up to 10 different
barcodes (the LEARN LED returns
to the blinking state for the next
code). If more than one barcode is
detected in the scan line, the Multi
Label mode is enabled (refer to the
“5K Family Software Configuration
Parameter Guide” Help file).
3. Exit the process by pressing the X-PRESS push button once. The scanner will restart at
the end of the process, and then the detected barcodes are automatically configured in
scanner memory.
NOTE: If the barcode cannot be read because of low contrast or excessive
ambient light, you can perform the AutoSetup function to optimize the optical
parameters. Then you can perform AutoLearn to recognize the barcode
symbology.
NOTE: On exit from Autolearn, the following parameters are forced: Code
Combination = Single Label, Reading Mode = Linear. If necessary, these
parameters can be changed through Genius.
* In case of Programming Barcodes, refer to the “Setup Procedure Using Programming Barcodes” document in
the downloadable Genius mini-DVD zip file.

Auto Setup (Optional)
At the end of the Auto Learn procedure, you have the possibility to follow the Auto Setup
procedure to set up the reading parameters.
1. Enter the Auto Setup function by holding the X-PRESS push button pressed until the
SETUP LED is on.
2. Release the button to enter the Auto Setup function.
3. Once entered, if a barcode label is positioned in front of the scanline, the scanner
automatically performs the optimal setup of the reading parameters for that specific
barcode.
Figure 8 – X-PRESS Interface: Auto Setup Function
The procedure is as follows:
A) place the desired barcode on
the scanline.
B) enter the AutoSetup function
(the laser turns on and the
SETUP LED blinks to indicate
the ongoing process)
C) wait until the SETUP LED
stays steady on (indicating the
reader has detected the
barcode)
This procedure ends either when the barcode is successfully decoded or after a timeout of
about 7 (seven) seconds.
The scanner will restart at the end of the process, and then the optimized reading
parameters for that barcode are automatically configured in scanner memory.

Focus Lock/Unlock
You must perform the Focus Lock procedure to save the mechanical focus position to
memory. When Locked, if the mechanical focus position is changed by more than the
allowed tolerance of the value in memory, a diagnostic alarm will be sent to the display. See
par. 2.3.1 for details.
NOTE: For Stand Alone or Master devices, the diagnostic alarm can also be
sent to any of the desired communication channels by selecting it in the
Diagnostic>Actions branch of the Genius configuration tool.
1. Enter the Focus Lock function by holding the X-PRESS push button pressed until the
FOCUS LOCK LED is on.
2. Release the button to enter the Focus Lock function.
Once entered, the scanner automatically performs the Lock (saving) or Unlock procedure
depending on the previous state of the Locked Position parameter.
Figure 9 – X-PRESS Interface: Focus Lock/Unlock
Function
The procedure is as follows:
A) enter the Focus Lock function
B) wait until the "Focus locked at..."
message appears on the display
(indicating the focus position has
been saved to memory). The
following parameters are set:
Locked Position = your mechanical
setting
Focus Displacement (Alarm) = set
(default to display only)
The scanner will be reset at the end of the process. The LEDs turn off, the Display goes
blank and then the Ready LED will turn on indicating the scanner is ready.
NOTE: If your application has been configured using X-PRESS, go to
STEP 6.

EBC/Profinet-IO Network Selection (only on Profinet-IO dual port models)
For on-board Profinet 2 port models, the DS5100 scanner can be configured to work as a
Slave in an EBC network. The only way to make this selection is through the X-PRESS
button.
1. Enter the EBC/Profinet-IO Network Selection function by holding the X-PRESS push button
pressed until the all X-PRESS LEDs are off.
2. Release the button to enter the Network Selection function.
Once entered, the scanner automatically performs the procedure to set itself as either an
EBC slave or a Profinet-IO slave depending on the previous state of the network
selection.
Figure 10 – X-PRESS Interface: EBC/Profinet-IO Network
Selection Function
The procedure is as follows:
A) enter the Network selection function.
B) wait until the "EBC Slave" o
“Profinet-IO” message appears on
the display (indicating the scanner
has been set and saved.
The scanner will restart at the end of the process.
NOTE: To reset the scanner to its default Profinet interface settings, you can
also perform the Reset Scanner to Factory Default procedure as described in
the paragraph below.
Reset Scanner to Factory Default (Optional)
If it ever becomes necessary to reset the scanner to the factory default values, you can
perform this procedure by holding the X-PRESS push button pressed while powering up the
scanner and waiting for all the X-PRESS LEDs to blink simultaneously three times before
releasing the push button.
This procedure takes ≈ 5-6 seconds for Serial Models, ≈ 10 seconds for Ethernet Models, ≈
20 seconds for 2 port Profinet-IO models. At the end of the procedure the Configuration and
Environmental parameters are reset and the message "Default Set" is shown on the scanner
display. If connected through a CBX500 with BM150 display module, the "Default Set"
message is also shown on the CBX500 display.

STEP 5 – INSTALL GENIUS CONFIGURATION PROGRAM
Genius is a Datalogic scanner configuration tool providing several important advantages:
Wizard approach for new users;
Multi-language version;
Defined configuration directly stored in the reader;
Communication protocol independent from the physical interface allowing to consider
the reader as a remote object to be configured and monitored.
To install Genius, on the PC that will be used for configuration, (running Windows XP,
or 7), download the Genius mini-DVD .zip file. Extract the files to a local folder and
launch the Setup.exe file. Select Install Genius and follow the installation procedure.
This configuration procedure assumes scanner connection to a CBX100/500. Genius,
running on a laptop computer, is connected to the scanner auxiliary port through the
CBX100/500 9-pin connector. To communicate with the scanner, Genius performs an auto
baudrate detection starting from its default parameters which are 115200, 8, N, 1. These
parameters can also be set in the Genius Tools>Options>Communications window.
Wizard for Quick Reader Setup
After installing the Genius software program the following window appears asking the user to
choose the desired configuration level.
Figure 11 - Genius Wizard Opening Window
The Wizard option is advised for rapid configuration or for new users, since it shows a stepby-step scanner configuration.
