				supplied power dedicated for the Keyence code reader. Do not use it for any other
				devices than for the Keyence code reader. Otherwise, the connected device may be
				damaged.
				The maximum current that can be supplied to the connected code reader is 1100 mA.
				Ensure that the sum of the current consumption of the code reader connected to the DV-
				90 stays under this value.
				However, when the ambient temperature exceeds 40 °C, the maximum power current that
				can be supplied is 850 mA.
				• Be sure to turn off the power of the DV-90 and of the connected devices when you plug/
				unplug the cable. Otherwise, the DV-90 and the connected devices may be damaged.
				• Isolate the cable from devices that generate high frequency, power supply lines or power
	CAUTION
				lines. Otherwise, noise could cause malfunction or accident.
				• Do not damage, pull or heat the cable.
				zOperating environment/condition
				To use the DV-90 correctly and safely, avoid installing it in the following locations. Failure to
				do so may cause fire, electric shock and malfunction.
				• Location that is humid, dusty or poorly ventilated

1-2 Overview of DV-90 Functions

Automated Product Selection at an Assembly Workstation

By reading the barcode attached to an assembly instruction sheet or a product in a high-mix lowvolume production line, the lamp on the shelf which contains the part to be assembled illuminates. By assembling the part stored on the illuminated shelf, assembly errors can be reduced.

1

Started Getting

	Note	The figure above is an example using a handheld reader. A fixed type reader can also be
		used.

Use the “Normal Verification” function. Refer to 4-4

Up to 900 presets be registered beforehand in the DV-90 as master data. The data read with the barcode reader is compared with the master data, and the corresponding preset number is output in parallel transmission.

In the above figure, the barcode on the assembly instruction sheet is preset in the DV-90. By connecting the parallel output after verification to a device such as a PLC, the corresponding lamp on the part shelf illuminates, thus preventing assembly errors.

Other uses

• Commanding operations to robots

By connecting the parallel output to a PLC for controlling a robot, the DV-90 can command the robot to perform specified operations.

•Switching the setting values of devices

The parallel output allows the setting values of the connected devices such as a weight checker to be changed automatically.

1-2 Overview of DV-90 Functions

Preventing Mixing with Other Products at a Packaging Machine

By reading the barcode printed on carton cases or cardboard cases at a packaging machine (carton packing machine or cardboard caser), the mispackaging of products in the wrong box can be prevented.

Use the “Active Verification” function. Refer to 4-13

Up to 900 presets can be registered beforehand in the DV-90 as master data. The user selects a preset (the “active” record) for the particular line. When a product is scanned with a code reader, the data is compared to the active preset. A match turns on the OK output. Otherwise, the NG output is activated.

In the above figure, the barcodes printed on all the carton cases to be used are preset, and the carton case to be used for the next packaging is selected from among them. If the barcode of the selected carton case and the actually read barcode do not match, a lamp or buzzer notifies the operator that a wrong carton case is present.

An active record can be selected by any of the following methods:

•The DV-90 front panel buttons

•Reading the barcode you want to select

•From a PLC (PLC link Refer to 9-4)

•Sending commands from a PC (Serial communication Refer to 8-11)

Other uses

• Preventing mixing with other products at a labeling machine

Whether the correct label is attached to the product on a labeling machine can be checked.

Verifying the Assembly Instruction by Comparing with the Customer Order Sheet (Kanban)

In the process of assembling products such as automobile parts, by reading the barcodes on the assembly instruction, product, and the customer order sheet (Kanban), the part to be assembled can be specified and also you can check whether the assembly instruction and the customer order sheet (Kanban) match.

Use the “Picking Verification” function. Refer to 4-28

By bundling three barcode data as one set, up to 900 sets of master data can be registered (preset) in the DV-90. Three barcodes are read in a row, and the output No. corresponding to the master data that matches each of one of the barcodes is output in parallel transmission.

Eventually, when all the preset barcodes in a set match the master data, an OK output turns on. Otherwise, an NG output turns on.

Let’s look at the example shown above.

First of all, preset all the combinations of the barcode data of the assembly instructions, products, and the customer order sheet (Kanban) prepared for today’s production.

When the assembly operator reads the barcode on the assembly instruction, the lamp on the shelf that contains the products to be manufactured illuminates. The operator places the indicated product on the workbench. Then, when the operator reads the barcode on the product, the lamp on the shelf that contains the part to be assembled on that product illuminates. The operator can then take the indicated part and assemble it on the product.

Finally, the operator reads the barcode (Kanban) on the customer order sheet. If the assembly operation has been done properly, an OK output turns on. Otherwise, an NG output turns on.

Checking the Print Quality of the Expiration Date or Manufactured Date

1

Whether the expiration date or manufactured date in the barcode that includes it is correct can be checked.

Started Getting

Use the “Date Comparison” function. Refer to 5-10

The DV-90 extracts the data that indicates the expiration date in the barcode, and compares it with the calendar in the DV-90. If the date is incorrect, or the date has expired, an NG output turns on.

Checking the Barcode Print Quality at the Printing Process

The printing quality of barcodes can be checked while they are being printed.

Use the “Reading Quality Judgment” function. Refer to 5-14

The reading stability of the barcode reader connected to the DV-90 can be checked.

Set the reference value of the reading stability. When the actual reading stability drops below the reference value, “Reading Quality Judgment Output (QUALITY)” turns on. This allows you to determine the reading stability.
