2.8.2 Test Mode
Test Mode is particularly advised during the installation phase, since it causes the reader to
be continuously activated allowing to verify its reading features and its reading position with
respect to the barcode.
To enter the Test Mode submenu and configure the scanner follow the given procedure:
1) Press and hold both the ▲ (up arrow) and ▼ (down arrow) keys for about 2 seconds to
enter the Main menu.
2) Use the ▲ (up arrow) or ▼ (down arrow) key to select the “Test Mode” item, then press
the ENT (enter) key to confirm. The reader enters Test Mode.
3) Press the ▲ (up arrow) key to exit the Test Mode.
4) Use the ▲ (up arrow) and ▼ (down arrow) key to select the “Exit” item, then press the
ENT (enter) key to confirm. The scanner exits the Main Menu and returns to its current
operating mode.
2.9 FOCUS ADJUSTMENT
The DS6300 provides a manual adjustment of the optics to optimize the reading performance
by choosing the best focus between two extreme positions. The focus adjustment is
continuous and not by step; thus, allowing an optimum adjustment around the selected
position. The relative focus positions range from 0 to 100.
The adjustment can be simply made through an external screw placed on the back of the
optic HEAD and protected by a cap (Figure 65). The screw may be rotated either clockwise
or counterclockwise in order to move the scanner internal lenses. In particular, a clockwise
rotation causes a farther focus from the scanner, while a counterclockwise rotation causes a
nearer focus to the scanner.
An internal sensor tracks the exact laser beam focusing position allowing it to be shown on
the reader display or through the Genius™ software program.
WARNING
Do not stare at the laser beam output window during this operation to
avoid hazardous visible laser light.
Refer to the following instructions when adjusting the focus:
1) Remove the regulation screw protecting cap (see Figure 65) positioned on the back of
the optic Head;
2) Press and hold both the ▲ (up arrow) and ▼ (down arrow) key for about 2 seconds to
enter the Main menu;
3) Use the ▲ (up arrow) or ▼ (down arrow) key to select “Test Mode” item, then press the
ENT (enter) key to confirm. The reader enters Test Mode;
4) Press the ENT (enter) key to toggle between the graphical (default) and numerical
visualization of the focus position;
