MATRIX 210N™ REFERENCE MANUAL
6.2 FOV CALCULATION
Use the data in the following table to calculate the FOV for your application, referring to
Figure 75 and the formula below.
The viewing angle has a tolerance of 1° depending on the reading distance.
FOV
x
= 2 (d + d
0
) tan (
x
/2)
where:
FOV
x
= horizontal, vertical or diagonal FOV
x
= horizontal, vertical or diagonal viewing angles.
d = reading distance (from window surface to code surface)
d
0
= offset (from center of lens to window surface)
Figure 75 – Reading Distance References
Example:
The FOV for a Matrix 210 225-111 at a reading distance of 120 mm is:
FOV
H
= 2 [(120 mm + 14 mm) tan (35°/2)] 85 mm
FOV
V
= 2 [(120 mm + 14 mm) tan (23°/2)] 55 mm
