General Description
The new DX8200A is a top performance omni-directional laser
bar code scanner, pur-posely designed to satisfy the needs of sorting applications for the Transportation&Logistics market. Datalogic used its experience with the DX8200 to develop theDX8200A, making it a more compact, increased performance omni-directional scanner.It is based on the innovative 3-diode structure, that offers an unbeatable real timeDepth Of Field. As a result of improved ASTRA™ technology that increases itsalready impressive performance, 3
industrial laser diodes are electronically switched from oneto the other, depending on the bar code distance from the scanner. This means thatthe scanner is able to capture the bar code on an object of any possible shape, inany position, as the DX8200A focuses on the bar code and not on the object pro-file. Advanced ASTRA™ technology, moreover, permits the PackTrack™function, thatreduces the min. object gap and increases the system throughput, to be fullyexploited. The SW platform of the new DX8200A, based on the GENIUS™ program,permits 100% control of scanner behavior via SW: the new DIGITECH™ signal pro-cessing technology permits all the scanner parameters to be configured via
GENIUS™. As a result, scanner customization is made by simply downloading the
right SW recipe into the scanner.The new DX8200A is completely compatible with the DS8100A, the 6000 scannerfamily (DS6300, DS6400, DS6500) and the SC6000 industrial controller making
Datalogic’s offer more flexible and scalable, with numerous possibilities and solu-
tions. Connectivity has been improved with the introduction of built-in Ethernetconnectivity with implemented TCP-IP, Ethernet/IP, Modbus TCP and Profinet proto-cols. Moreover, the new DX8200A offers built-in connectivity to Profibus andDevicenet.A practical display with keyboard increases the DX8200A’s ease of use by offering asimple and complete human interface without the need of a PC. The new ASR™
function permits completely automatic slave scanner replacement.
