2.5 POSITIONING THE SCANNER


The DS6400 reader is able to decode moving barcode labels at a variety of angles, however
significant angular distortion may degrade reading performance.

When mounting DS6400 take into consideration these three ideal label position angles:
Pitch 0°, Skew 10° to 30° and Tilt 0°.

Follow the suggestions for the best orientation:

The Pitch angle is represented by the value P in Figure 45. Position the reader in order to
minimize the Pitch angle.
