DS2400N REFERENCE MANUAL 3 3.2.2 Mounting a GFC-2010 Accessory Direct Output Window The GFC-2010 accessory direct output window can be used as a replacement of the original output window in case of damage over time when used in harsh environments. CAUTION Subzero model scanners must not be opened in an uncontrolled environment. The installation of the output window is very easy. 1. Make sure the device is not powered. Cover Screws 2.
INSTALLATION 3.2.3 3 Mounting a GFC-2020 Accessory Lateral Output Deflection Mirror The GFC-2020 accessory is a Lateral Output deflection mirror which helps to position the scanner body in a different orientation with respect to the code, for limited space applications. CAUTION Subzero model scanners must not be opened in an uncontrolled environment. The installation of the deflection mirror is very easy. 1. Make sure the device is not powered. Cover Screws 2.
DS2400N REFERENCE MANUAL 3 3.2.4 Mounting a GFC-200 Accessory Contact Reading Mirror The GFC-200 is an 85° contact reading mirror that is mounted directly to the DS2400N Scanner. The GFC-200 allows contact reading, eliminating the external optical path. Figure 21 - GFC-200 General View The overall dimensions are provided in the figure below and can be used for proper installation. 146.5 [5.77] 5 [0.20] 26 [1.02] 92 [3.62] 120 [4.72] 10 [0.39] 17 [0.67] Ø4.5 [Ø0.18] N°4 5 [0.20] 82 [3.
INSTALLATION 3 To fix a DS2400N Scanner to the GFC-200, use the two M 4 x 6 mm screws supplied with the GFC Kit. Refer to the following figure. Figure 23 – Fixing DS2X00N Scanner to GFC-200 The GFC-200 85° contact reading mirror assures that the minimum skew angle is maintained to avoid direct light reflection which can degrade reading performance. When reading very reflective barcodes, it may be necessary to increase the skew angle (up to 10° - 15°).
DS2400N REFERENCE MANUAL 3 The internal optical path from the scanner reading window to the GFC-200 window is 51 mm. The reading distance of the DS2400N scanner with the GFC-200 is shifted by 51 mm towards the scanner because of the internal optical path between the scanner and the GFC200 output window. The reading performance also decreases in typical conditions by about 10% due to the optical signal passing through the output window of the GFC-200 and the reflection on the mirror surface.
INSTALLATION 3.2.5 3 Mounting an OM2000N Accessory Oscillating Mirror The OM2000N oscillating mirror is designed to generate homogeneous and adjustable raster reading through deflection of the scanning laser beam. The system consists of the oscillating mirror attached to the scanner and allows a surface instead of a line to be observed; versatility and reading accuracy are therefore increased in "Picket Fence" reading mode.
DS2400N REFERENCE MANUAL 3 The installation of the deflection mirror is very easy. 1) Clean the OM2000N mirror surface and output window (internally and externally) with a clean soft cloth and alcohol before assembling it to the scanner. CAUTION All abrasive substances must be absolutely avoided as they cause irreparable damage to the transparency of the glass. 2) Remove the scanning window from the scanner (see Figure 27).
INSTALLATION 3 The reading distance of the scanner with the OM2000N is shifted by 10 mm towards the scanner because of the internal optical path between the scanner and the OM2000N output window. The reading performance also decreases in typical conditions by about 10% due to the optical signal passing through the output window of the OM2000N and the reflection on the mirror surface.
3 DS2400N REFERENCE MANUAL 3.3 POSITIONING The DS2400N scanner is able to decode moving barcode labels at a variety of angles, however significant angular distortion may degrade reading performance. When mounting the DS2400N take into consideration these three ideal label position angles: Skew 10° to 30°, Tilt 0° and Pitch 0°. Follow the suggestions for the best orientation: The Skew angle is represented by the value S in Figure 33. Position the reader to assure at least 10° for the Skew angle.

DS2400N REFERENCE MANUAL 6 6 TYPICAL LAYOUTS The following typical layouts refer to system hardware configurations. Dotted lines in the figures refer to optional hardware configurations within the particular layout. These layouts also require the correct setup of the software configuration parameters. Complete software configuration procedures can be found in the Guide To Rapid Configuration in the Genius™ Help On Line. 6.
TYPICAL LAYOUTS 6 In this layout a single scanner functions as a Slave node on a Fieldbus network. The data is transmitted to the Host through an accessory Fieldbus interface board installed inside the CBX500 connection box. Scanner configuration can be accomplished through the Auxiliary interface using the Genius™ configuration program or Genius™ based Host Mode programming.
DS2400N REFERENCE MANUAL 6 6.2 PASS-THROUGH Pass-through mode allows two or more devices to be connected to a single external serial interface. Each DS2400N transmits the messages received by the Auxiliary interface onto the Main interface. All messages will be passed through this chain to the host. When On-Line Operating mode is used, the scanner is activated by an External Trigger (photoelectric sensor) when the object enters its reading zone.
TYPICAL LAYOUTS 6 An alternative Pass-Through layout allows the more efficient ID-NET™ network to be used. This layout is really an ID-NET Master/Slave Multidata layout which also allows each scanner (Master and Slaves) to accept input on the Auxiliary interface, for example to connect a device such as a hand-held reader for manual code reading capability. Each DS2400N transmits its own messages plus any messages received by its Auxiliary interface onto the ID-NET™ interface.
DS2400N REFERENCE MANUAL 6 6.3 ID-NET™ The ID-NET™ connection is used to collect data from several scanners to build a multi-point or a multi-sided reading system; there can be one master and up to 31 slaves connected together. The slave scanners are connected together using the ID-NET™ interface. Every slave scanner must have a ID-NET™ address in the range 1-31. The master scanner is also connected to the Host on the RS232/RS485 main serial interface.
TYPICAL LAYOUTS 6 For a Master/Slave Multidata layout each scanner has its own reading phase independent from the others; each single message is sent from the master scanner to the Host computer.

TYPICAL LAYOUTS 6 The Master scanner can communicate to the Host as a Slave node on an Ethernet TCP/IP network. This example requires using the accessory BM2x0 Ethernet interface board installed inside the CBX500 connection box. System configuration can be accomplished through the Auxiliary interface of the Master scanner (internal CBX500 9-pin connector) using the Genius™ configuration program or Genius™ based Host Mode programming.
DS2400N REFERENCE MANUAL 6 Alternatively, the Master scanner can communicate to the Host as a Slave node on a Fieldbus network. This requires using an accessory Fieldbus interface board installed inside the CBX500 connection box. System configuration can be accomplished through the Auxiliary interface of the Master scanner (internal CBX500 9-pin connector) using the Genius™ configuration program or Genius™ based Host Mode programming.
TYPICAL LAYOUTS 6 The QLM600 Profibus Gateway active connection module can also be used. System configuration can be accomplished through the Auxiliary interface of the Master scanner (QLM600 Aux connector) using the Genius™ configuration program or Genius™ based Host Mode programming.
DS2400N REFERENCE MANUAL 6 6.4 RS232 MASTER/SLAVE This interface is provided for backward compatibility. We recommend using the more efficient ID-NET™ network for Master/Slave or Multiplexer layouts. NOTE The RS232 master/slave connection is used to collect data from several scanners to build either a multi-point or a multi-sided reading system; there can be one master and up to 9 slaves connected together. The Slave scanners use RS232 only on the main and auxiliary serial interfaces.
TYPICAL LAYOUTS 6 6.5 MULTIPLEXER LAYOUT This interface is provided for backward compatibility. We recommend using the more efficient ID-NET™ network for Master/Slave or Multiplexer layouts. NOTE Each scanner is connected to a Multiplexer (for example MX4000) with the RS485 halfduplex main interface through a CBX connection box.
DS2400N REFERENCE MANUAL 7 7 READING FEATURES 7.1 ADVANCED CODE RECONSTRUCTION (ACR-LITE) The traditional way of barcode reading could be called “Linear Reading”. In this case, the laser beam crosses the barcode symbol from its beginning to its end as shown in the following figure: Laser Beam Figure 98 – Linear Reading In Advanced Code Reconstruction mode it is no longer necessary for the laser beam to cross the label from the start to the end.
