MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
2.6 ALIGNING THE AV7000 WITH DEFLECTION MIRRORS
When using deflection mirrors with the AV7000 reader, which is typical, the mirrors must be
mounted parallel to the reader and at the correct distance to allow for proper focus and the
highest read rate. Reference the system’s application drawing for distances A and B shown
in the illustration below. Distances A and B are measured to the edge of the Rising Bracket
base, as shown.
When mounting the readers and mirrors, make sure:
ï‚· the structure is centered and squared to the conveyor
ï‚· deflection mirrors and readers are perpendicular to the structure rails
ï‚· deflection mirrors are parallel to their AV7000
ï‚· deflection mirror does not twist when mounted
