WARNING
Avoid eye exposure to direct or scattered radiation reflected by a mirror
surface.
Laser beam emitted from a laser has high power density and may become
blind when the beam is directed into eyes.
Do not disassemble this bar code reader.
Laser beam may be scattered around when it is disassembled.
This Bar Code Reader uses a laser as the light source.
Lasers are classified on IEC standard (IEC 60825-1).

Labeling on Laser Use
The Bar Code Reader has the following WARNING Label on the bottom.
A different set of regulations, European, IEC 60825 applies when exporting this product to Europe.
Replace the warning label with the corresponding English label (supplied with this product.)
When using devices in which a Bar Code Reader is installed in the U.S., the product is subjected to the
U.S. FDA (Food and Drug Administration) laser regulations. Replace the warning label with the
corresponding English label (supplied with this product.)
Usage
• Use laser enclosure device to prevent specular object from reflecting laser beam.
When used without an enclosure, be sure to avoid a laser path from eye level.
• Although the safety distance (NOHD) is approximately 1 m; it is advisable, however, to terminate the laser on its path
if possible. Nonreflective, flatting material is recommendable for termination.
• Wear protective glassed to protect against laser light during set up and adjustment.

Introduction
Precautions for Correct Use
Always observe the following precautions to prevent operation failures, malfunctions, and adverse effects
on performance and equipment.
1. Installation of the bar code reader
The bar code should be mounted in a place:
• where is not subject to direct sunlight (indoor use),
• without any corrosive gas, dust, metallic powder or salt content,
• where operation temperature does not exceed the specified range,
• where temperature change is not rapid, without dew condensation (within the
specified value),
• where humidity change is not rapid, without dew condensation (within the specified value),
• where vibration or shock does not reach to the bar code reader directly (within the
specified value),
• and without any droplet of water, oil or chemical agent.
Introduction
2. Power supply
• Apply voltage to be +5 VDC ±10 % at the connector of the bar code reader side.
• Used cable should be 0.3 mm
or resistance is too huge, voltage may be decreased due to fluctuation of
consumption current of the bar code reader.
• Be careful so that noise or switching surge of relay is not applied on +5 V power
voltage supplied to the bar code reader.
• To suppress influence such as noise, use direct current of insulation transformer, not
auto transformer.

• When high frequency wave such as ultrasonic welding machine is used, insulate it
using auxiliary insulation plate to avoid malfunction due to induction current.
• S82K-00705 (made by OMRON Corporation) is recommended for the driving power
supply of the bar code reader.

Introduction
Introduction
3. Wiring
• Extension length of the RS-232C line (SD, RD, SG) should be up to 15 m.
• For trigger and power line, use a cable with 0.3 mm
2
or more and extension length
should be up to 5 m.
• Wiring should avoid approaching to a high-power heavy electric current wire.
• Check the polarity of terminals and be careful of faulty wiring.
• Avoid reverse connection of power supply or connection to alternating current.
• Turn off the power switch before connecting or disconnecting a connector.
• Use a wrist strap etc. to avoid electrostatic charge when you touch terminals and
signal lines, to avoid damage due to static electricity.
4. Installation
• When using the bar code reader, fix it to the associated mounting bracket.
• When inductive noise is generated at the mounting bracket, attach an associated
insulation board. Use the associated screw to mount the insulation board.
• Incline the bar code reader about 15 ° to read the target bar code.
• Do not apply stress on the cable when mounting and using.
• Distance and angle allowed to read differs according the bar code. Check if the used
bar code can be read actually, before mounting.
5. Timing input with photo-electronic sensor
When taking timing with the photo-electronic sensor, mount the bar code reader so that
the footlight beam of the photo-electronic sensor does not spot directly on the reading
window of the bar code reader or on the bar code.

6. Influence of reflective objects
When there is any reflective object such as metal or mirror surface on the bar code
beam-scanning surface, reading character may be deteriorate. Cover the reflective
object with something or change the bar code position to avoid influence.

Introduction
7. Mutual interference
When mounting the bar code readers side-by-side, laser beams may interfere reading
each other. The bar code readers should be placed far enough not to affect reading.
Bar code
Introduction
8. Bar code label
• The height of the bar code should be more than the luster scan width (max. 10 mm)
and use a label considering attaching error.
• When reading bar code, margin is necessary on the both sides of the bar code. Set
the label so that margin parts do not hide. A space of one character or more and 2.5
mm or more is necessary of both right and left side of the label. (Rough standard: 12
or 13 times or more of the narrow bar width)

9. To improve reading reliability
• When the digit is determined, designate the digit to use the bar code.
• Use the modulus check (addition of check digit).
• Bar codes other than the reading object should be set to reading prohibition.
p.61
10. Maintenance and check
• Check for any dust or dirt on the reading window regularly. When it is dirty, wipe with
a dry, soft and clean cloth. Do not use solutions such as thinner.
• Handle with care, not to apply strong shock such as dropping.

A bar code reader is a device to read a bar code attached on a product and transfer the
information to upper equipment.
Various types of information can be managed efficiently by using it combining with PC and
programmable controllers.
Problems on site Bar code solution!
Work data are recorded on papers.
> Reading and writing mistakes and
distribution of workers exist.
> Formats are difficult to learn because various
kinds are produced in small numbers.
Cost should be as cheap as possible as
the product price is low.
Register product numbers and setting on PC
and programmable controllers beforehand and
import a product number only by reading a bar
code. Input mistake or distribution of workers
are eliminated.
Cost is very low by only attaching a printed bar
code label.
Ultra-compact design
Optimum for the assembly to each device
Easy installation
Easy to read by pressing the TEST button and know the reading rate with LED
illumination and buzzer sound in real time.
As reading position is easy to check at site before connecting with upper equipment,
installation work and maintenance work hour can be greatly reduced.

Simple function setting
You can either set the function by reading a menu sheet or by inputting a command on
the upper equipment. You can select the setting method according to the condition.

Section 2 Wiring
• Extension length of the RS-232C line (SD, RD, and SG) should be up to 15 m.
• For trigger and power line, use a cable with 0.3 mm
• Wiring should avoid approaching to a high-power heavy electric current wire.
• Check the polarity of terminals and be careful of faulty wiring.
• Avoid reverse connection of power supply or connection to alternating current.
• Do not use exceeding rating voltage.
• Turn off the power switch before connecting or disconnecting a connector.
• Use a wrist strap etc. to avoid electrostatic charge when you touch terminals and signal lines, to avoid
damage due to static electricity.
