MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
PREPARING FOR MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
Before mounting any components, please do the following:
• Read all instructions before beginning your installation.
• Define and confirm the accuracy of your applicat
ion’s requirements and structure
position, especially the height of the conveyor from the floor.
• Review all installation-specific drawings provided with your equipment.
• Review and plan the mechanical installation of all devices used in your application.
Be
sure
to allow adequate clearance for maintenance.
• Review and plan the power requirements for your application.
• Check the contents of the shipping cartons against the packing list.
• Record all product serial numbers.
General Mounting Guidelines
As you plan and install your AV500/AV900 camera imaging system, keep the following
guidelines in mind:
• Follow application drawings for structural details and barcode reader placement.
• Determine the proper orientation and position of the barcode reader(s).
• Leave adequate clearances (approximately 300 mm [12 in]) f
or wiring.
• Route wires carefully to reduce or minimize electrical noise. When power and
communic
ation wiring must cross, make their intersection perpendicular. Avoiding
sharp wire bends or loops, which can affect performance.
• Proper grounding limits the effects of noise due to Electromagnetic Interference
(EMI).
