2.5 POSITIONING
The DS1500 scanner is able to decode moving barcode labels at a variety of angles,
however significant angular distortion may degrade reading performance.
When mounting the DS1500 take into consideration these three ideal label position
angles: Pitch 0°, Skew 15° to 30° and Tilt 0°.
Follow the suggestions for the best orientation:
The Pitch angle is represented by the value P in Figure 15. Position the reader in
order to minimize the Pitch angle.

The Skew angle is represented by the value S in Figure 16. Position the reader to
assure at least 10°
for the Skew angle. This avoids the direct reflection of the laser
light emitted by the DS1500.
