INTRODUCTION31Feature BenefitEnergy Saving A software parameter group which allowsmanagement of the energy saving feature. Inparticular, it allows turning on/off the motor andlaser of all network scanners according to theselected digital input, encoder, or communicationchannel. The time required to restart the system is lessthan 1 minute independently from the number ofscanners connected. It is suggested to use this parameter for examplewhen the conveyor is stopped for a lengthyperiod.1.3 MODEL DESCRIPTIONThe DS6300 scanner is available in versions that differ in regard to the followingcharacteristics: Optical Model (Head) Decoder Model (Base)Optical Model (Head)0 = Standard5 = Oscillating MirrorDecoder Model (Base)10 = Master/Slave11 = Profibus12 = Ethernet15 = DevicenetDS6300 - 10X - 0YY1.4 OSCILLATING MIRROR MODELSOscillating mirror models are used when coverage of a large reading area is required, mainlyin picket fence applications.The DS6300 scanner mounts a dedicated optic head with integrated oscillating mirror drivenby a linear motor. The speed, the precision, the repeatability, and the reliability of this drivingtechnology assure high level performance.The oscillating mirror is completely software controlled and software programmable. TheGenius™ software tool allows adjusting the linear motor speed (oscillating frequency) andthe upper and lower limits of the oscillation by defining the top and bottom line limit angles.When the oscillating mirror is programmed to read barcode labels at very small angles,position the reader to assure at least 10° for the Skew angle (see par. 2.2.3). This angle refers
