DS6300611.5 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 new 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. 2.3). This angle refersto the most inclined or external laser line, so that all other laser lines assure more than 10°Skew. This avoids the direct reflection of the laser light emitted by the reader.10°Figure 6 – Oscillating Mirror Skew AngleOtherwise, the scanner can be mounted at an angle of inclination of 17.5° in order to attainsymmetrical deflection ranges.17.5°107.5°Figure 7 - Oscillating Mirror Reading PositionIn the above case, the zone where the scan line is perpendicular to the reflecting surfacecorresponds to a neutral zone at the center of the reading field.
