INTRODUCTION

1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The DS8110 barcode scanner complete with decoder is designed to provide an innovative and high performance solution in omnidirectional reading applications by combining the following advanced technologies with Datalogic solid experience in the material handling sector.

Some of the main features of the DS8110 are listed below:

 Scanning speed 1000 scans/sec  Reads all popular codes  Supply voltage from 20 to 30 vdc  Test mode to verify the reading features and exact positioning of the scanner without the

need for external tools

 Programmable in several different operating modes to suit the most various barcode

reading system requirements

 Light source: solid state laser diodes; the light emitted has a wave length between

630~680 nm. For laser safety precautions refer to the “compliance” section at the

beginning of this manual

1.2 APPLICATIONS

The DS8110 barcode scanners are specifically designed for industrial applications and for all cases requiring high reading performance such as:

 Code reconstruction (ACR™)  Reading of codes covered by plastic film  Reading of codes with a wide depth of field  Reading codes within a wide field of view  Reading of high resolution codes positioned at long distances from the reader  Code reading on fast moving objects

These barcode scanners are designed for both single-reader layouts and multi-reader layouts. For typical layouts, see section 5.8.

DS8110 REFERENCE MANUAL

Feature

Benefit

DST

Digital Signal Technology converts analog signals to digital before processing for much improved decoding capability especially on poorly printed or damaged codes.

ACR™

Fifth generation Advanced Code Reconstruction technology allows the reading of low aspect ratio labels placed anywhere on a parcel and enhances the readability of poorly printed or damaged codes.

PACKTRACK™

Second generation Datalogic patented parcel tracking system which improves the reading features in omnidirectional stations. In particular, PackTrack manages 6-sided reading systems when it is impossible to detect the real position of the code on the parcel, thus overcoming the need for external accessories essential in traditional tracking systems.

ASTRA™

Third generation Automatically SwiTched Reading Area is the Datalogic technology based on a multi-laser architecture and a fixed mounted optic system which concentrates the multiple laser emissions in a single laser beam. As each laser emitter is focused on a specific range of the reading area, a sophisticated electronic controller selects the best focused laser emitter with respect to the code to read. This allows the reading of medium-high density codes in a large reading area on very fast conveyors.

Flexibility

The high frequency laser diode modulation system guarantees complete immunity to ambient light and allows installation of the DS8110 in any working area.

Reading parcels on conveyors

As a result of the ASTRA multiple laser technology, DX8210 and DS8110 give a great real time DOF even on high speed conveyors. Furthermore, DX8210 and DS8110 implement the PackTrack functionality which leads to an increase of the plant production as a result of the augmented system throughput.

EBC

Ethernet Based Connectivity is a reliable real-time network communication between scanners in a reading station tunnel or array.

e-Genius

e-Genius is a browser-based User Interface with the folowing characteristics:

 No software to install;  Multilanguage platform;  All the configuration parameters stored in the scanner;  Not dependent on the Physical interface; Remote access

through local network.

Energy Saving

A software parameter group which allows management of the energy saving feature. In particular, it allows turning on/off the motor and laser of all network scanners according to the selected digital input, encoder, or communication channel. The time required to restart the system is less than 1 minute independently from the number of scanners connected. It is suggested to use this parameter for example when the conveyor is stopped for a lengthy period.

INTRODUCTION

1.7 PHOTOELECTRIC SENSOR

The optional Datalogic Photoelectric Sensor is used in DX8210 barcode scanner systems to detect the presence of an item in the scanning area.

The photoelectric sensor is used in singulated systems where the packages are separated by an open space between the trailing edge of one package and the leading edge of the next. The photoelectric sensor, along with the encoder, enables a programmable transmit point at a defined distance from the sensor. Without the photoelectric sensor, the barcode scanner can be run in continuous mode. See 4.5.1 Modify Settings | Global Settings | Operating Mode.

Depending on the application, these devices may need to be configured differently. While the photoelectric sensor and tachometer work well with belt conveyors, a special configuration is needed for tilt-tray and cross-belt sorter applications. See section 3.10 for wiring options.

Beam Shutter Settings

Beam Shutter

 Disabled: The laser is always on.  Triggered: The laser is turned off as soon

as the code(s) are read or when the reading phase ends. The laser is turned on again when the next reading phase starts.

 Enabled: The laser is always off and all

operations are suspended.

Continuous

The reading phase is always active and allows reading two or more codes when placed along the same scan line. Code transmission is identical to the other operating modes except that there is no transmission on the serial port in case of a No Read condition.

Mode Setting

Code Filter

Select Disable, Timeout, Encoder Steps, or Tx Line from the On Line Options drop-down list. This parameter determines criteria for

flushing entries from the code filtering list depending on the type of list management:

 The Code Filter Depth parameter, when not = 0, manages

a FIFO (First In First Out) list of codes which are compared for filtering. The Timeout and Encoder Steps values are in addition to the cyclical flushing of entries when the FIFO list depth is exceeded.

 When Code Filter is set to Tx Line an internal list is

managed where each entry is flushed when the Tx Line distance is exceeded.

The application program inherently compares codes based on content and code length.

Page 73

USER INTERFACE

Each Code Filter criteria has its own relative value parameter.

 Disable: No additional criteria are applied. If code filtering

is enabled through the Code Filter Depth parameter, the FIFO list is only modified by new code entries (FIFO list depth exceeded).

 Timeout: A timeout measured in milliseconds is also

applied to each code entry. The current code entry will be flushed from the list when the timeout expires.

 Encoder Steps: a threshold measured in encoder steps is

also applied to each code entry. The current code entry will be flushed from the list when the number of encoder steps is exceeded.

 Tx Line: The distance measured in mm to the transmit line

is applied to each code entry. The current code entry will be flushed from the list when the distance in mm is exceeded. When Tx Line is selected, all the networked scanners must have been calibrated using PackTrack (See section 5.6

PackTrack).

NOTE: When Code Filter = Tx Line:

The Code Filter Depth parameter is no longer available because the application program manages an internal list which depends solely on the number of codes decoded before the Tx Line is reached.

Any code which is determined to be identical to a code in the list by comparing the filter conditions will be discarded, and to increase precision the code in the list will have its x, y, z position coordinates adjusted as the average between the two readings.

x=x1+x2/2 , y=y1+y2/2 , z=z1+z2/2

Use Encoder

Select the check box to activate the encoder settings.

Page 74

DS8110 REFERENCE MANUAL

Code Filter Depth

In Continuous mode, Code Filter Depth is used to avoid multiple reads of the same code. The entered value (other than zero) defines the number of codes to memorize in a FIFO (First In First Out) list.

When a code is read, it is compared to the list. The application program inherently compares codes based on content and code length. If the list contains a code identical to the current code being read, the current code is discarded. If not, the current code is accepted and added to the list in the first position; the remaining codes in the list are shifted. If the list is full the oldest code in the list will be flushed.

When = 0, there is no FIFO list and there is no filtering.

First Out) list entry is flushed.

Filter Timeout Value (ms)

Enter a timeout value in milliseconds in the field provided. A value between 40 and 15000ms may be used. This value sets the time limit after which the FIFO (First In First Out) list entry is flushed.

Replicate same code when symbologies don't match

Select the check box to enable a further code filter condition according to which a read code is added to the list or discarded. This parameter is available if the Code Filter Depth value is other than zero or if the Code Filter value is Tx Line.

In addition to the inherent content and code length comparison, this parameter compares the code type (symbology). If the current code being read is identical to any code contained in the list by: content, length and type, the current code is discarded. If not, the current code is accepted and added to the list in the first position; the remaining codes in the list are shifted. If the list is full the oldest code in the list will be flushed.

Page 75

USER INTERFACE

Replicate same code when X positions don't match

In addition to the inherent content and code length comparison, this parameter compares the X coordinate code position. If the current code being read is identical to any code contained in the list by: content, length and X coordinate code position, the current code is discarded. If not, the current code is accepted and added to the list in the first position; the remaining codes in the list are shifted. If the list is full the oldest code in the list will be flushed.

Replicate same code when Y positions don't match

In addition to the inherent content and code length comparison, this parameter compares the Y coordinate code position. If the current code being read is identical to any code contained in the list by: content, length and Y coordinate code position, the current code is discarded. If not, the current code is accepted and added to the list in the first position; the remaining codes in the list are shifted. If the list is full the oldest code in the list will be flushed.

Replicate same code when Z positions don't match

In addition to the inherent content and code length comparison, this parameter compares the Z coordinate code position. If the current code being read is identical to any code contained in the list by: content, length and Z coordinate code position, the current code is discarded. If not, the current code is accepted and added to the list in the first position; the remaining codes in the list are shifted. If the list is full the oldest code in the list will be flushed.

Match Direction Rule

Select Disable, Forward, or Reverse from the drop-down list. This parameter defines the direction, according to which a code can be transmitted. The direction refers to the code direction with respect to the scan line, in particular: Forward = the code start character precedes the stop character in the scan line (Start Ch + Code + Stop Ch); Reverse = the code stop character precedes the start character in the scan line (Stop Ch + Code + Start Ch)

 Disable: All codes are transmitted no matter what the direction is  Forward: All codes having a forward direction are transmitted  Reverse: All codes having a reverse direction are transmitted

Start Char Tx

Select Disabled, Lower Case, or Upper Case from the drop-down list. This parameter is available only for Codabar code symbologies. It allows transmitting the code start character:

 Disabled: The character is not selected;  Lower Case: The character is transmitted in lower case;  Upper Case: The character is transmitted in upper case.

Stop Char Tx

Select Disabled, Lower Case, or Upper Case from the drop-down list. This parameter is available only for Codabar code symbologies. It allows transmitting the code stop character:

 Disabled: The character is not selected;  Lower Case: The character is transmitted in lower case;  Upper Case: The character is transmitted in upper case.

Field Name

Action/Definition

Code Combination

Select Single Label, Standard Multi Label, Logical Combination, or Code Collection from the drop-down list. The Code Combination parameter selects the

decoding mode for the scanner.

 Single Label: In this mode only one barcode can be read in each reading

phase; however it can be determined automatically from up to 10 enabled codes. The scanner stops decoding as soon as a code is read.

If the code is not read during the reading phase, the No Read message is produced.

 Standard Multi Label: In Multi Label mode the barcodes selected (up to 10),

will all be read in the same reading phase. If the reading phase terminates before all the codes are read, a Global No Read message will be produced, unless it is disabled, in which case a Local No Read will be produced.

NOTE: In case of Multi Label, the codes will be distinguished EITHER by their symbology, OR by their contents. If two (or more) codes share the same symbology and content, the scanner will perceive them as a unique code.

 Logical Combination: In Logical Combination mode the codes of the groups

defined by the Logical Combination Rule are read in the same reading phase.

 Code Collection: In Code Collection mode expected codes are collected

within a single reading phase in the order in which they are read. The No Read message is produced only if none of the codes are read. Up to 50 codes can be collected.

Contained Filter

Select the check box to reveal the Max Number of Different Characters field. When checked, this filter attempts to eliminate false multiple reads by determining if a

short code read is "contained in" (is a sub-string of), another longer code read. This condition implicates that the short code is probably a misread of the same longer code and therefore should be ignored, (should not be considered as a multiple read of a different code).

This filter is based upon the following rules:

 a multiple read condition occurs  all decoded codes of the same type are compared with each other

Rule 1: the shorter code is considered contained in the longer code if the character string is found in the same order; the longer code may have a single block of characters in any position (before, after or in between the compared strings)

Example: The code 123456 is considered contained in the following codes: 00123456, 12345600, 12378456.

The code 123456 is not considered contained in the following codes: 12346507 (string out of order), 12345700 (string not complete), 120378456 or 0012345600 (multiple blocks in the string).

Rule 2: the shorter code is not filtered by rule 1. In the longer code, all possible substrings of the same length as the shorter code string are compared with the shorter code string. The shorter code is considered contained in the longer code if the number of different characters between the compared codes is less than or equal to the Max Number of Different Characters. The shorter code will be filtered by rule 2.

Example: If Max Number of Different Characters = 1: The code 123456 is considered contained in the following codes: 12305600,

00123056, 8812305688 because there is only one different character in the compared string.

The code 123456 is not considered contained in 123066789 because there are two different characters in the compared string.

CAUTION: If the Contained Filter parameter is used when Message Tx Selection (see section 4.5.6) is set to On Decoding, the filter conditions may be satisfied before the

reading phase ends resulting in possible successive multiple read errors.

Max Number of Different Characters

Enter a value from 0 to 5 in the field provided to define the maximum number of different characters allowed to still consider a code as being included in another one and therefore to be filtered.

If the number of different characters between the compared codes exceeds the value of this parameter, the codes are considered as different and will not be filtered (a multiple read of a different code occurs).

If the number of different characters between the compared codes is less than or equal to the value of this parameter, the short code is considered as a sub-string of the longer

Page 88

DS8110 REFERENCE MANUAL

code and will be filtered (no multiple read occurs).

Examples: If Max Number of Different Characters = 2:

The code 123456 read once, is considered the same as the following codes read multiple times: 133056, 123546, 123457 because there are two or less different characters by position in the compared codes.

The code 123456 read once, is not considered the same as the following codes read multiple times: 153246, 103057, 654321 because there are at least three different characters by position in the compared codes.

Voting Filter

Select the check box to reveal the Max Number of Different Characters field. When checked, this filter attempts to eliminate false multiple reads by comparing the

number of different characters by position between two codes of the same type and length. This condition implicates that reading a code of the same type and length having very few different characters is probably a misread of the code itself and therefore the code read the least number of times should be ignored, (should not be considered as a multiple read of a different code).

This filter is based upon the following rules:

 a multiple read condition occurs;  the two codes are of the same type;  the two codes have the same length;  the number of different characters by position is equal to or less than the number

defined by the Max Number of Different Characters parameter;

 Message Tx Selection (see section 4.5.6) must be set to After Reading Phase

Off.

Filter Out Low Height Codes

Select the check box to reveal the Minimum Readings Difference Between Scanners field.

Background: This option was developed for the airports systems where there are often tall bar height codes and low bar height codes with the same content attached to baggage. Travelers will often remove the large, tall bar height code, while leaving the smaller, low bar height codes attached to the bag. The next time they travel they may have multiple low bar height codes on their baggage plus the new tall bar height and low bar height codes for the new trip.

This option instructs the system to ignore low bar height codes, which are likely read only once or twice, in favor of tall bar height codes, which will likely be read multiple times.

This is used in tunnel applications where multiple barcodes are read and there is a need to filter out one of the barcodes. If less than x number of scanners read the barcode, then it will be considered a NOREAD for that code.

Minimum Readings Difference Between Scanners

Enter the minimum number of scanners that must read a barcode for it to be considered a valid read.

Example: The code 123456 is considered contained in the following codes: 00123456, 12345600, 12378456.

The code 123456 is not considered contained in the following codes: 12346507 (string out of order), 12345700 (string not complete), 120378456 or 0012345600 (multiple blocks in the string).

Rule 2: the shorter code is not filtered by rule 1. In the longer code, all possible sub-strings of the same length as the shorter code string are compared with the shorter code string. The shorter code is considered contained in the longer code if the number of different characters between the compared codes is less than or equal to the Max Number of Different Characters. The shorter code will be filtered by rule 2.

Example: If Max Number of Different Characters = 1: The code 123456 is considered contained in the following codes:
