These state-of-the-art imagers with superior 32-Bit, 400 mHz microprocessors provide a one piece solution combining illumination, imaging and decoding in an extremely small package. Dual optics used by the 1.
Chapter 1 Quick Start-Up Procedure This section is for those who wish to start using the imager before reading the complete manual. In only a few steps the imager will be operable. Follow the appropriate steps depending upon whether your LH2 is configured to operate with a RS232 interface. Turn off the power to your PC and connect the imager to the RS232 communications port depending on your cable configuration. Note: You must provide +5 Volt DC power to the imager.
2) Your PC and the imager should now communicate. 3) To verify that the imager and the PC are communicating properly, send the following command from your PC keyboard to receive a response from the imager. Send these commands and at the end of the command send a carriage return. ( <┘ represents a carriage return) ;>PA7<┘ I<┘ Note: Be sure to use capital letters, e.g. “I”, not “i”. 4) The LH2 will send back the firmware version of the Imager.

Chapter 3 Chapter 3 Positioning the Imager for Optimal Performance Achieving Optimum Performance Four items greatly impact performance: 1) Distance (from the scan window) to the bar code 2) Specular Reflection; and 3) Quality of Bar Code Labels 4) Imager field of view and resolution 1) Distance to the Bar Code The operation of the imager is similar to a camera. If you photograph an object that is out of focus, the resulting picture will be blurry. The same is true with the imager.
much shorter distance range than low density bar codes with larger bars. The following chart in figure 3.1 shows the “typical” depth-of-field (closest to farthest reading distances ) for the LH2 imagers. The actual performance may differ slightly from unit to unit. Also, it is important to note that this data was measured under ideal conditions using high quality bar code labels. In a “real world” environment the conditions will not be as ideal.
Chapter 3 LH2 Decode Zone Figure 3.
2) Avoiding Specular Reflection Do not position the imager at an angle that causes the LED illumination to be reflected directly back into the imager. This is called specular reflection. Too much reflected light can “blind” the imager preventing a good decode. If the bar code label is located on a flat surface, specular reflectivity occurs between 0 to 10 degrees off perpendicular.
Code Readability Index Rule: The Reader will store the rule and reset, but will not output the Readability Index until the Readability Index Output Enable code is read. To remove this rule, scan the Clear All Prefix & Suffix code in Appendix A. Once read, each time a data symbol is read, the index will be output, followed by a comma, (,) followed by the decoded data.
4) Imager Field of View & Resolution The LH2’s dual field optical system may be modified based on your scanning environment. The LH2’s mega pixel imager may be set to the following two modes: SXGA Mode: In standard SXGA mode (default), the 1.3 Million Pixel imager is divided into near field and far field decode zones. In each zone the resolution is 1024 x 640 pixels (see figure 3.2).
1024 640 Far SXGA Imaging Area Near 640 480 320 Far Chapter 3 Figure 3.2 VGA Imaging Area Near 320 Figure 3.3 The LH2 may be easily optimized for any workplace. By setting a few parameters from your scanning environment you can take advantage of the readers dual path 1.3 mega pixel imager and 400 MHz processor.

Application Notes Tips for Achieving High Throughput In some applications your primary objective may be to achieve the highest possible throughput rate. The following list identifies the parameters and imager settings that can maximize scanning and decode throughput speed. Note, by emphasizing maximum throughput, other areas of performance may be affected. For example, the number of nonreads could increase.

Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Configuring the Imager Since the operation of a LH2 imager is microprocessor controlled, it is possible to modify or program its operation to match your specific application. Changes in parameter settings can be changed or programmed in two ways: (1) The first method employs specially designed programming bar codes which instruct the imager to modify specific parameters. You can scan any of the barcodes from Appendix A to program the LH2.
