Connection and Wiring Method

Connecting the power supply
Connect a cable with a length of 4.8 m or less.
Reverse connection of the power supply is strictly
prohibited. This may cause product failure.
Use a stable power supply of 5V DC power supply outside this range may cause product failure.

Wiring IN1/IN2 input pins
The IN1 (timing) input is used to trigger the BL-1300 Series to read
barcodes (to emit a laser beam).
The IN2 (preset) input is used to trigger the BL-1300 Series to register
barcode data.
IN1/IN2 input is performed by no-voltage input.
Wiring OUT1/OUT2/OUT3/OUT4 output pins
OUT1 (OK) is used as output indicating that reading is successfully
completed and that the comparison and matching with preset data is judged as OK.
OUT2 (NG/ERROR) is used as output indicating that reading has
failed and that the comparison and matching with preset data is judged as NG.
OUT3 (ERROR) is used as output indicating that reading has failed.
OUT4(BUSY) is output any time the trigger input cannot be accepted,
such as cases where the BL-1300 Series is at initial start-up or in setting mode, the motor/laser is damaged, the motor/laser is locked, or the number of rotations of the motor is changed.
The output form of each signal is NPN open collector.

When installing the BL-1300 Series, adjust the mounting angle and distance as shown below.
Adjusting the mounting angle
Mount the BL-1300 Series so that a laser beam is applied at an angle of approximately 15. For the front type of the BL-1300 Series BL-1300/1301/1300HA/1301HA/ 1370/1371, the unit must be tilted at an angle of 15. For the side type BL-1350HA/1351HA, it is not necessary to tilt the unit because a laser beam is emitted at an angle of 15.
Adjusting the reading distance
The BL-1300 Series normally provides stable reading when it is mounted at the following distance.
Model Mounting distance
BL-1300/1301 : 120 mm
BL-1300HA/1301HA : 90 mm
BL-1350HA/1351HA : 65 mm
BL-1370/1371 : 230 mm
* The supplied mounting bracket facilitates the angle setting. * The reading rate check mode ensures an optimal reading position.
Do not mount the BL-1300 Series so that the laser
beam is applied to bar codes at a right angle (10). Otherwise, the specular reflections may cause unstable reading or reading errors.
2 Fasten the mounting bracket to the unit.
* Mounting screws (M4) are not included.
Be sure to mount the supplied insulation spacer to suppress the influences of noises from the unit side. If the insulation spacer is not mounted, there is risk of the occurrence of a reading error or a wrong reading.
Attaching the side type BL-1350HA/1351HA to the
mounting bracket
The following is the procedure for mounting the BL-1350HA/1351HA using the supplied mounting bracket.
1 Attach the BL-1300 Series to the mounting bracket.
* The mounting bracket for the BL-1300 allows two mounting or ientations.
Choose the appropriate orientation according to the application.
* Refer to page 5 for the dimensions of the mounting bracket.
The reading distance and angle may vary depending
on the narrow bar width, size, and printing quality of bar codes. Be sure to test the BL-1300 Series' ability to read the actual bar codes using "Reading rate check mode".

Mounting the BL-1300 Series

Attaching the
front type BL-1300/1301/1300HA/1301HA/
1370/1371 to the mounting bracket.
The following procedure is for mounting the BL-1300 using the supplied mounting bracket.
1 Attach the BL-1300 Series to the mounting bracket.
* Refer to page 5 for the dimensions of the mounting bracket.
E BL-1300-IM
2 Fasten the mounting
bracket to the unit.
* Mounting screws (M4) are
not included.
Be sure to mount the supplied spacer to suppress the influences of noise. A reading error or an incorrect error reading may occur if the insulation spacer is not mounted.

Fasten the BL-1300 Series in the mounting position with M3 screws.
* The M3 screws are not included. Select the M3 screws after checking
the panel thickness and other factors of the mounting position. (The mounting hole for the BL-1300 Series is 4 mm deep.)
To suppress the influence of noise, mount the insulation plate between the unit and the place it will be mounted. If the insulation plate is not mounted, a reading error or an incorrect reading may occur.
