GUIDE TO INSTALLATION
The following can be used as a checklist to verify all of the steps necessary for
complete installation of the Matrix-1000 compact 2D reader.
1) Read all information in the section "Safety Precautions" at the beginning of this
manual.
2) Correctly mount the reader using the bracket provided (sub-pars. under 2.2).
3) Position the reader at the correct reading distance according to your model
(par. 2.5).
4) Make electrical connections to your Matrix-1000™ reader by either:
a) Connecting the test cable to the Matrix-1000™ reader (par.2.4).
b) Providing correct and complete system cabling according to the signals
necessary for the layout of your application.
• Layout: Point-to-point or Multidrop, etc. (sub-pars: 2.6);
• Cabling: Power, Main RS485, Auxiliary RS232, External Trigger Input
and Output (sub-pars. under 2.3).
5) Configure the Matrix-1000™ reader by installing and running VisiSet™ from the
CD-ROM provided onto the configuration PC (pars. 3.1, 3.2, 3.3). See the
Rapid Guide to Configuration in the VisiSet™ Help On Line. The main steps
are:
a) Select the codes to be read
b) Set-up the communication parameters
c) Define data formatting parameters
d) Fine tune your Matrix-1000™ reader using the VisiSet™ Calibration Tool
(par. 3.4.2).
Specific VisiSet™ parameter details are also available in the Help On Line.
6) Exit the configuration program and run your application.
The installation is now complete.

1 GENERAL FEATURES
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Matrix-1000 is an area CCD reader for industrial application using 2D, 1D, stacked
and postal codes.
Matrix-1000 uses imaging technology and provides complete reading system
functions by integrating: lighting system, image acquisition, image processing,
decoding and communication into a single compact unit.
This technology intrinsically provides omni-directional reading.
Standard Application Program
A Standard Application Program is factory-loaded onto Matrix-1000. This program
controls code reading, data formatting, serial port, and many other operating and
control parameters. It is completely user configurable from a Laptop or PC using the
dedicated configuration software named VisiSet™ provided on CD-ROM with the
reader.
There are different programmable operating modes to suit various code reading
system requirements.
A Calibration Tool is provided to verify the exact positioning of the reader and to
maximize its reading performance.
Programmability
If your requirements are not met by the Standard Application Program, Custom
Application Programs can be requested at your local Datalogic distributor.

1.2 DESCRIPTION
Some of the main features of this reader are given below:
• Decoding of most popular linear and stacked barcodes, 2D code symbologies
and postal codes
• Omni-directional reading
• Frame rate up to 30 frames/sec (1800 frames/min)
• Moving code reading
• Calibration Tool to verify exact code positioning in the Field of View and to
maximize the reading performance
• Parameter configuration via Windows-based VisiSet™ software
• Different operating modes to suit various application requirements
• User-defined database of acquisition recipes (parameter sets)
• Verifier option with a user-defined match code database
• Diagnostic software tools
• 2 serial communication interfaces
• General purpose optocoupled I/Os
• Supply voltage ranges from 10 to 30 Vdc
The reader is contained in a magnesium alloy housing; the mechanical dimensions
are 121 x 73 x 57 mm and it weighs about 330 g.
The protection class of the enclosure is IP64; therefore the reader is particularly
suitable for industrial environments where protection against harsh external
conditions is required.

Electrical connection of Power, serial interfaces and I/O signals is provided through a
25-pin connector (see Figure A, 3). In addition there is a 9-pin Auxiliary interface
connector for reader configuration (see Figure A, 2).
The following indicators are located on the top of the reader:
PWR red LED indicates that the reader is connected to the power supply
(see Figure A, 7);
TRIG yellow LED indicates external trigger activity (Figure A, 6); for
details refer to par 2.3.4;
READ red LED signals successful code decoding (Figure A, 5).
It is also used to signal successful startup. At power on this LED
turns on and after a few seconds turns off. If the startup is not
successful, this LED remains on.
COMgreen LED indicates data transmission on the main serial interface
(Figure A, 4).

1.5 APPLICATION EXAMPLES
The Matrix-1000™ wide choice of fields of view and high performance of decoding
libraries allow the reading of many small codes (see 96 vial application in Figure 1)
as well as deformed and / or overprinted codes also when they are damaged or
printed on high reflective surfaces (see Figures 2, 3, 4).
