STEP 1 – ASSEMBLE THE READER

The first step to perform is to assemble the accessories that make up the Matrix 400™

reader. The lens and either an internal or an external illuminator must be used. This

procedure shows an internal illuminator.

CAUTION

Matrix 400™ must be disconnected from the power supply during this

procedure.

1. In a dust-free environment, remove the Matrix 400™ Lens Cover by unscrewing it.

CAUTION

Do not touch the sensor aperture, lens glass or lens cover glass. These

areas must be kept clean. Avoid any abrasive substances that might

damage these surfaces during cleaning.

2. Remove the sensor protection label by pulling it off of the base.

3. Mount the lens by screwing it tightly onto the base.

If the Locking Knobs on the lens are obstructed because they are aligned behind an

illuminator spacer base and illuminator spacer, insert the Lens Spacer between the

Matrix 400™ body and the C-Mount lens so that the Locking Knobs will be unobstructed.

NOTE

It is strongly recommended to apply a lens locking sticker (provided with the

lens), for applications where Matrix 400™ is subjected to vibration.

4. If using an internal illuminator:

a. Mount the four internal illuminator spacers onto the illuminator spacer bases provided

on the Matrix 400™ body.

b. Align and mount the Illuminator tightly onto the spacers using the four screws and

washers provided in the illuminator package. The spacers are positioned

asymmetrically to avoid incorrect alignment.

5. To keep dust and dirt off of the lens during mounting, temporarily replace the lens cover.
