1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
The new DS1500 industrial laser scanner is the combination of extremely compact
dimension and powerful high-speed reading capabilities, which makes the scanner
ideal for OEM integration projects.
DS1500 miniaturization allows an easy OEM integration in pieces of equipment and
automatic machinery. Concurrently, the high scan rate and code reconstruction
software effectively address demanding applications.
The availability of ACB
™ (Advanced Code Builder) embedded reconstruction
software algorithm allows effective decoding of damaged or normally unreadable
codes due to a high tilt angle.
DS1500 installation and configuration is easy and simple thanks to the compact size
and to the new test operating mode with bar graph. Test Mode is activated by means
of a key on the scanner (no external PC is required), and the bar graph shows real
time scan rate, which is of great help for installation and reading performance
monitoring purposes.
DS1500 operates at a speed up to 1200scan/s. Furthermore, the scanner motor can
be switched ON and OFF via software command while keeping the unit powered.
This allows a prompt restore of full operation and drastically increases the product
life.
DS1500 is equipped with a software selectable serial link (RS232 or RS485) thus
minimizing the number of models needed to fit all possible applications.
