„ Mounting angle and distance

Locate the BL-700 at the angle and distance shown below.

Determine the angle and distance, referring to the range and angle
characteristics shown in the user’s manual. The scanning distance
and angle may vary according to the narrow bar dimensions of a bar
code, size of a bar code and printing quality of a bar code.
Finally determine the setting after scanning the bar code to be used
actually.

Scan distance

Panel surface

*Scan distance = 230 mm (BL-700/701)

400 mm (BL-740/741)

500 mm (BL-780/781)

Do not locate the laser beam of the BL-700 at a
right angle to the bar cord surface to be scanned.
Otherwise, the scanning will be adversely
affected by influence of opposite reflection.

An optimum scan position can be determined by
using the reading rate test mode. As for the test mode
operation procedure, refer to the user’s manual.
