DX8210 Barcode Scanner
Side-Mounted Barcode Scanner Calibration Using PackTrack
With the belt stopped, measure and enter the barcode XYZ coordinate data for
each scanner as follows:
1. Start by placing a system barcode han
ging halfway past the back lower left
edge of a box, and then place the box along the edge of the conveyor belt
as shown in the illustration below.
2. Start by placing a system barcode at a 45-degree angle centered on the
edge of a box as shown below. Set the box, with the barcode in the scan
line, close to the left edge of the conveyor bed. The label should be placed
close to the conveyor bed.
3. Measure the distance for X from the edge of the conveyor bed to the bar-
code (right edge of box), and enter that
distance in the first box under X-
Coord (mm) in the PackTrack Calibration Wizard.
Your measurements will likely differ from those shown below.
It is not possible to illustrate every possible installation angle and scanner mounting
position in this manual. Use the following steps as a general guide to calibrating each
system scanner using barcodes in three positions. You will need to make adjustments
to the label/box position based on your situation. It is, however, important to note the
fixed XYZ coordinates of the conveyor.
