2.1 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The DS2400N laser scanner satisfies the most advanced needs of a wide range of users. It

has been developed focusing on the realistic requirements of its target market. The

outstanding result is an extremely compact, cost-effective and easy to use industrial scanner.

Standard Application

Program

A standard application program is factory-loaded onto the

DS2400N. This program controls barcode reading, serial port

interfacing, data formatting and many other operating and control

parameters.

It is completely configurable from a host computer through the

Genius™ utility program provided on CD with the scanner, or via

the serial interface (Genius™ based Host Mode Programming).

Custom Application

Programs

If the Standard Application Program does not meet your

requirements, please contact your local Datalogic distributor.

Some of the main features of DS2400N are listed below:

 ACR-Lite (Advanced Code Reconstruction)

 small dimensions and light weight

 software programmable scanning speed on all models

 linear and raster version

 completely configurable via serial interface (Genius™)

 3 serial communication interfaces (Main, Auxiliary, ID-NET™)

 supply voltage from 10 to 30 Vdc (24 Vdc 10% for Subzero models)

 reads all popular codes

 test mode to verify the reading features and exact positioning of the scanner without the

need for external tools

 programmable in 4 different operating modes to suit the most various barcode reading

system requirements

 code verifier

 low power consumption

The DS2400N uses a solid-state laser diode as a light source; the light emitted has a

wavelength between 630 and 680 nm. Refer to the section “Safety Precautions” at the

beginning of this manual for information on laser safety.

The protection class of the enclosure is IP65, the reader is therefore suitable for industrial

environments where high protection against harsh external conditions is required.
