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.
