Step 3 — Position Imager
•
Position the Imager at a distance from the symbol that matches the factory
pre-set focal distance. For example, if your Imager is pre-set at 4”, position
the parting line 4” from the symbol.
• Tip the Imager relative to the symbol to avoid the glare of direct (specular)
reflection. The case parting line should be perpendicular to the plane of the
symbol by either pitching the symbol or the Imager as shown.
• Position the Imager in a place with as little ambient light as possible.
• Symbols can be rotated (tilted) at any angle; however, for best results
symbols should be aligned with the FOV (field of view).
• In the case of linear symbols, aligning the bars in the direction of their
movement (“ladder” orientation) will minimize the chances of blurring,
and will produce better reads.
• Avoid excessive skew or pitch. Maximum skew is
±30°
; maximum pitch is
±30°
.
Note: For instant setup and validation, the MS-4 can be hand-held or
placed on its side. For accuracy, however, Microscan’s mounting arm
adapter kits (P/N 98-000048-01 or -02) are recommended.
