4.1 Setting up the bar code scanner

The CLV63x Bar Code Scanner consists of a laser scanner (laser diode and lens) with fixed

focus and an electronic unit with an integrated decoder. The laser scanner and electronic

unit are located in a housing. The ligh exits and enters via a reading window in the industrial-

type housing. The bar code scanner (depending on the version) is electrically connected by

a cable with a connector or a revolving connector unit with two connections.

For an adaption to on-site space conditions/reading functions three housings are available:

a housing with front reading window, a housing with side reading window and a housing with

oscillating mirror. Via the integrated angle attachment/oscillating mirror, the laser beam ex-

its through the side reading window at an angle of emergence of 105°. For the oscillating

mirror this corresponds to the central position (default settings) of the laser beam perpen-

dicular to the scan direction.

Depending on the type, various lenses enable different resolutions and reading areas.
