Mechanical installation of a bar code reader
Safety precautions
Although the power of the laser beam used in this barcode reader is very low, it can be dangerous to the human eye if
stared into for long periods of time. Careful attention must be paid to the warnings on use of the laser. These warnings
refer to regulations enforced by local authorities.
IEC regulations
Warning labels indicating laser radiation and the reader classification are applied to the body of the reader:
Fig.II-29
The device is classified as a Class 2 laser product according to the rules indicated in IEC publication N. 825-1 (1993).
Turn the power off when opening the reader during maintenance or installation to avoid dangerous laser radiation.
Barcode reader kit
The barcode reader can also be installed on the THS system at a later date: a special kit is available for this purpose,
and includes an enabling code.
The reader is available in two versions:
• Picket-Fence, optimised for codes with vertical bars
• Step-Ladder, optimised for codes with horizontal bars
