Overview

  1. Function Description
  2. Important Technical Specifications
  3. Usage Features
  4. Maintenance Features

The Datalogic DX8200 Controller is a sophisticated device designed for industrial barcode reading applications, acting as a master unit in a Lonworks network of slave scanners. This quick reference guide provides essential information for its installation, operation, and maintenance.

Function Description

The DX8200 Controller serves as the central processing unit in a barcode scanning system. It interprets data received from multiple slave scanners and performs barcode assignment to parcels, particularly utilizing its proprietary PackTrack™ operating mode. This functionality is crucial for high-speed sorting and identification systems in logistics and manufacturing. External devices such as presence sensors and encoders are connected directly to the DX8200 Controller, which then interfaces with a Host PC for data management and system control.

Important Technical Specifications

      • OUT1 / OUT2 electrical features: Collector-Emitter voltage 30 V max., Collector current max 130 mA pulse max / 40 mA continuous max, Saturation voltage (VCE) 1 V at 10 mA max, Maximum power dissipation 90 mW at 50°C.
  • Optical Features:
    • Light Source: Up to 3 VLDs (Visible Laser Diodes).
    • Wavelength: 630 to 680 nm.
    • Safety Class: Class 2 (EN 60825-1); Class II (CDRH). The laser diodes are classified as Class 3B laser products (EN 60825-1) and Class IIIb laser products (CDRH).
    • Light Receiver: Avalanche photodiode.
    • Laser Control: Security system to turn laser off in case of motor slow down. A safety device ensures the laser activates only when the motor reaches the correct rotational speed.
  • Reading Features:
    • Scan Rate: 500-1000 scans/s.
  • Software Features:
    • Readable Code Symbologies: Interleaved 2/5, Code 39 standard, Codabar, Code 128/EAN 128, Code 93 (standard & full ASCII), EAN/UPC.
    • Code Selection: Up to 10 codes during one reading phase.
    • Headers and Terminators: Up to 128-byte headers and 128-byte terminators.
    • Operating Modes: Pack-Track™.
    • Config. Mode: Genius™ utility program (Windows-based software).
    • Parameter Storage: Non-volatile internal FLASH.
  • User Interface:
    • LED Indicators: Power ON, Encoder, Good Read, TX Data, Network (Lonworks).
  • Environmental Features:
    • Operating Temperature: 0° to +50 °C (+32 to +122 °F).
    • Storage Temperature: -20° to +70 °C (-4° to +158 °F).
    • Humidity: 90% non-condensing.
    • Vibration Resistance: EN 60068-2-6 test FC (1.5 mm @ 5 to 9.1 Hz; 0.5 G @ 9.1 to 150 Hz; 2 hours on each axis).

    • Weight: About 22 Kg (48.5 lbs.).

Usage Features

  • Connectivity: The DX8200 Controller acts as the Master in a Lonworks network, managing up to 5 slave scanners. The maximum allowable length for the entire bus cabling is 65 m. The last slave scanner requires a BTK-8000 termination connector.
  • Electrical Connections: The device is equipped with various connectors:
    • Host Interface Connector (male, 25 pins) for serial interface and I/O signals.
    • Ethernet Connector (RJ45) for Host interface.
    • Lonworks Network Connector (female, 17 pins) for connecting to slave scanners.
    • RS232 Debug Connector (female, 9 pins) for service only.
    • Reserved Connector (female, 9 pins).
  • Installation: Two mounting rails on the sides of the scanner facilitate mechanical installation.
  • Configuration: The DX8200 Controller can be configured using the Windows-based Genius™ software program, provided on a CD-ROM with the product.
  • Laser Safety: Users must avoid staring directly into the laser beam and ensure it does not hit an observer's eye, even through reflective surfaces. Disconnecting the power supply when opening the device is crucial to avoid exposure to hazardous laser light.
  • Power-up: During power-up, there is a current peak of about 3A due to motor startup. The laser beam is generated after a slight delay once the motor reaches the correct rotational speed.
  • Reading Conditions: The manual provides tables detailing minimum code height for omnidirectional reading based on conveyor speed and code resolution for various symbologies (2/5 Interleaved, Code 39, Code 128-Ean 128, Codabar, EAN 8-13, UPC-A). Reading diagrams illustrate the relative position of the scanner to the conveyor and define the reading area for different scanner models and code densities.

Maintenance Features

  • Fuse Replacement: For AC models, the device is protected by fuses. When replacing fuses, it is essential to use correct value fuses as specified in the Reference Manual.
  • Service Connector: An RS232 Debug Connector is provided for service purposes only.
  • Reference Manual: For detailed information on installation, maintenance, and other aspects, users should refer to the complete Reference Manual.
