1 Chapter 1 Rapid Configuration Step 1 - Connect the System The paragraphs in this step show a typical hardware setup depending on the Matrix 120 model and interface selection. Several other layouts are described in Running H/F 1. Ethernet Connections To connect the system in an Ethernet point-to-point configuration, you need the hardware indicated in Figure 1 -. In this layout the data is transmitted to the Host from the Matrix 120 on-board Ethernet interface by using a CAB-ETH-M0x cable. There is no need to use a crossover adapter since Matrix 120 incorporates an autocross function. Matrix 120 power and I/O device connections take place through the CBX connection box using the CAB-1011 accessory cable. When One Shot or Phase Mode Operating mode is used, the reader is activated by an External Trigger (photoelectric sensor) when the object enters its reading zone.

GND and SGND are internally connected through filtering circuitry, which can be permanently damaged if subjected to voltage drops over 0.8 Vdc.

Product Reference Guide 5 Step 2 - Mount and Position the Reader 1. To mount the Matrix 120, use the mounting brackets to obtain the most suitable position for the reader. The most common mounting configuration is shown in the figure below. Figure 4 - Positioning with Mounting Bracket 2. When mounting the Matrix 120, take into consideration these three ideal label position angles: Pitch or Skew 10° to 20° and Tilt 0°, although the reader can read a code at any tilt angle provided the code fits into the Field Of View (FOV). Figure 5 - Pitch, Skew and Tilt References 3. Refer to the reading diagrams in Chapter 6, to determine the distance your reader should be positioned at. FOVV FOVH No Pitch, Tilt or Skew Pitch Minimize Tilt any angle inside FOV Skew assure at least 10° NOTE Rapid Configuration of the Matrix 120 reader can be made either through the X- PRESS™ interface (steps 3) which requires no PC connection, or by using the DL.CODE Configuration Program (steps 5-6). Select the procedure according to your needs.

The Matrix 120 models are factory calibrated at three focus positions (45, 70 and 125 mm for WVGA models; 45, 80 and 125 mm for MP models). Using a 2.5 mm Hex key (Allen wrench), rotate the Focus Adjustment Screw at the back of the reader to one of these three positions for your application. Refer to the Reading Diagrams in Chapter 6, Reading Features, which show the reading ranges at the different focus positions for Code 128 (1D) and Data Matrix (2D) codes. Focus/Aiming Matrix 120 devices provide a built-in aiming system to aid reader positioning. The aiming system is accessed through the X-PRESS Interface. 1. Power the reader on. During the reader startup (reset or restart phase), all the LEDs blink for one second. On the connector side of the reader near the cable, the “POWER ON” LED (blue) indicates the reader is correctly powered. 2. Enter the Focus/Aim function by pressing and holding the X-PRESS push button until the Aim LED is on. 3. Release the button to enter the Aim function. The aiming system turns on see . 4. Place an application specific code in front of the reader at the reading dis- tance indicated for your model as described above, centering it a few mm to the left of the aiming system indicator as shown below. 5. Exit the Aim function by pressing the X-PRESS push button once. The aim- ing system turns off. CAUTION Do not rotate the Focus Adjustment Screw beyond the focus scale limits otherwise damage can occur to the focus mechanism.

Product Reference Guide 7 Setup Learn 1. Enter the Setup function by pressing and holding the X-PRESS push button until the Setup LED is on. 2. Release the button to enter the Setup function. The Setup LED will blink until the procedure is completed. The Setup procedure ends when the Image Acquisition parameters are suc- cessfully saved in the reader memory, the Setup LED will stop blinking and Matrix 120 emits 3 high pitched beeps. If the calibration cannot be reached after a timeout of about 5 (five) seconds, Matrix 120 will exit without saving the parameters to memory, the Setup LED will stop blinking and in this case Matrix 120 emits a long low pitched beep. Figure 8 - X-PRESS Interface: Setup Function 1. Enter the Learn function by pressing and holding the X-PRESS push button until the Learn LED is on. 2. Release the button to enter the Learn function. The Learn LED will blink until the procedure is completed. The Learn procedure ends when the Image Processing and Decoding parame- ters are successfully saved in the reader memory, the Green Spot is activated, the Setup LED will stop blinking and Matrix 120 emits 3 high pitched beeps1. If the autolearn cannot be reached after a timeout of about 3 (three) minutes, Matrix 120 will exit without saving the parameters to memory, the Learn LED will stop blinking and in this case Matrix 120 emits a long low pitched beep. 1. The Learn procedure will not recognize the fol- lowing symbologies: Postal Codes, Pharmacode, MSI, Standard 2 of 5, Matrix 2 of 5 Figure 9 - X-PRESS Interface: Learn Function

If it ever becomes necessary to reset the reader’s Environment parameters to their factory default values, you can perform this procedure by holding the X- PRESS push button pressed while powering up the reader. You must keep the X- PRESS push button pressed until all LEDs blink simultaneously for about 3 seconds. Release and re-press the button during this LED blinking sequence. All the device Environment parameters are reset including the default IP Address. The Matrix 120 emits 3 high pitched beeps and after a few seconds enters run mode. Any previously saved configurations on the device will remain in memory, but the Default configuration is set as the startup configuration. NOTE The Grade A Barcode Test Chart cannot be used to set the Code 128 symbology (even though the reader successfully reads the code). Use the application specific code if you need to set this symbology. NOTE When using X-PRESS or the BM150 menu to perform Auto-Learn, only a single code can be configured (successive Learns will substitute the current code). To configure multiple codes, use the DL.CODE Auto-Learn procedure. NOTE You can always exit from any X-PRESS function at any time by pressing the X-PRESS push button once. After a short delay the procedure is canceled. NOTE If you have used this procedure to configure Matrix 120, go to step 6. NOTE If you release the button while the LEDs are all on continuously (after the blinking phase), the reader will enter the Loader program sequence and the LEDs will begin to cycle through various patterns. Just cycle power to return to run mode.

Product Reference Guide 9 Step 4 - Installing DL.CODE Configuration Program DL.CODE is a Datalogic reader configuration tool providing several important advantages: • Intuitive Graphical User Interface for rapid configuration • Defined configuration directly stored in the reader • Discovery and IP address setting features to facilitate remote configuration • Device Monitoring • Device Driver Installation To install DL.CODE: 1. On the PC that will be used for configuration (running Windows XP SP3, 7, 8, or 10), download the DL.CODE mini-DVD.zip file. Extract the files maintaining the folder structure and run the start.hta file to access the installation pop-up. Click on the Install DL.CODE link to run the installation program and follow the installation procedure. 2. When the installation is complete the DL.CODE entry is created in the Start>Programs bar under “Datalogic” as well as a desktop icon. Double- click the desktop icon to run it. Depending on your Matrix 120 model, you can connect to DL.CODE configuration environment through one of the following interfaces: CAUTION DL.CODE does not currently support Windows Embedded (often used in industrial PCs and/or PLCs). NOTE To configure Serial + USB model devices, check the appropriate Matrix USB Driver and/or RS232 Serial Port Driver installation boxes in the Welcome window of the DL.CODE Installer. In this case it is recommended to reboot the PC after DL.CODE installation. NOTE To perform a “silent” installation (without user input), see the DL.CODE User’s Guide. Model Interface Instructions Matrix 120 xxx-x1x Ethernet Configuration STEP 4A Matrix 120 xxx-x0x USB Configuration STEP 4B All Serial Configurationa a. All devices can be configured through their Main Serial port. However, through this interface, configuration is slower than the Ethernet or USB interfaces and presents some limitations. It is recommended to use the Serial interface for configuration only if the other interfaces are not avail- able. STEP 4C

The following configuration procedure assumes that a laptop computer running DL.CODE is connected to a factory default reader through the Ethernet port. See Step 1 - Connect the System. The User Interface opens and displays a list of all the devices belonging to the Local Area Network. DL.CODE has a discovery feature to accomplish this task. Figure 10 - Device Discovery The discovery feature will also show devices not belonging to the LAN and display them in gray (see Figure 10 -). 1. First the device must be added to the LAN by aligning its IP Address to the network. The network administrator should provide valid LAN address(es). 2. Find your device in the list by matching its serial number (SN) then click on the device wrench icon to open the Device Environment Configuration win- dow. 3.

Product Reference Guide 13 Step 4B - USB Device Discovery The following configuration procedure assumes that a laptop computer running DL.CODE is connected to a Matrix 120 factory default reader through the USB port (CAB-1021). See Step 1 - Connect the System. 1. After the reader is connected to the USB port and boots up successfully, from DL.CODE, click the Getting Started button to discover it. The unit will be shown in the network Online Devices list. Matrix 120 devices connected through the USB interface will not be shown in the Serial Devices list. 2. Find your device in the list by matching its serial number (SN). The USB driver creates a virtual Ethernet connection with an IP address that cannot be modified. In fact, it is easy to see the unit in the list because it is the one without a wrench icon (used for modifying the IP parameters). NOTE USB device discovery on a PC using Windows XP SP3 requires particular attention. See "Windows XP SP3 and Matrix 120 USB Interface" on page 150 for more infor- mation.

Product Reference Guide 15 Step 4C - Serial Device Discovery Starting from DL.CODE 1.4.0, serial port communication is supported for device discovery and configuration. This allows dedicated serial communication models to be configured through DL.CODE. This feature is not enabled by default, so the first thing to do is to enable it through the UI Settings window. NOTE Although this feature allows all devices to be configured through their Serial Inter- face, be aware that transmission speeds and some DL.CODE features are limited when using this interface. It is always advised to use the Ethernet interface whenever possible. NOTE If you’re not sure of the Serial baud rate you can also check the Enable Automatic Device Discovery box which for serial devices will try communication at all baud rates, but only at No parity, 8 data bits;1 stop bit. Enabling this parameter can notably lengthen Discovery time, therefore in general it is better to disable it to increase Discovery efficiency. 1. From the main menu open the Options>UI Settings window. 2. Click on the Global Settings menu and scroll down to the Find Devices tab. 3. Check the Enable Serial Device Dis- covery box. Scroll down to see the following selections. 4. Select the Serial communication parameters according to your appli- cation. Default is 115200.

6. Open the Serial devices tab and double click on or drag the device icon into the Selected Device Information Area. The device is now connected to the DL.CODE Configuration environment. Configure your device through DL.CODE as described in Step 5 - Device Configuration.

Product Reference Guide 17 Step 5 - Device Configuration Automatic or Advanced Setup Automatic Setup provides an automatic procedure for setting: optical/ illumination, reading distance (for software adjustable focus liquid lens models), and code definition parameters to obtain the most stable decoding conditions for a single code symbology based on the images presented to the reader. It can be set to include Image Filters if necessary. See the table below for codes and filters managed by Automatic Setup. Automatic Setup is especially useful for DPM applications. Advanced Setup provides access to the complete array of optical/illumination, software and manual focusing adjustment, and code definition parameters that can be fine-tuned semi-automatically and manually to obtain the best results for applications of any complexity.

To exit the Test Mode, press the X-PRESS push button once. Focus/Aim This function causes the laser indicator to turn on. The laser aiming pattern is centered on the FOV vertically while it has a horizontal offset of a few mm to the right with respect to the FOV center. It can be used to position the imager on the code. The Aim LED blinks to indicate this state. You can exit the Focus/Aim function at any time by pressing the X/PRESS push button once. After a short delay the laser indicator turns off. Setup Once entered, the imager automatically performs Image Acquisition parameter calibration for the specific code presented to it. The Setup LED will blink until the procedure is completed. The Setup procedure ends when the Image Acquisition parameters are successfully saved in the reader memory, the Setup LED will stop blinking and Matrix 120 emits 3 high pitched beeps. If the calibration cannot be reached after a timeout of about 5 (five) seconds, Matrix 120 will exit without saving the parameters to memory, the Setup LED will stop blinking and in this case Matrix 120 emits a long low pitched beep. NOTE By default, the Test exits automatically after three minutes.

Product Reference Guide 37 Learn Once entered, the imager starts a procedure to automatically detect and recognize a single code which is presented to it. Successive Learns will substitute the current code. The Learn LED will blink until the procedure is completed. The Learn procedure ends when the Image Processing and Decoding parameters are successfully saved in the reader memory, the Green Spot is activated, the Learn LED will stop blinking and Matrix 120 emits 3 high pitched beeps. If the autolearning cannot be reached after a timeout of about 3 (three) minutes, Matrix 120 will exit without saving the parameters to memory, the Learn LED will stop blinking and in this case Matrix 120 emits a long low pitched beep. You can exit the Learn function at any time by pressing the X-PRESS push button once. After a short delay the Learn procedure is canceled. Diagnostic Indication The “STATUS” (red) and “READY” (green) LEDs blink simultaneously to signal the presence of an error.

120 model: Digimarc Barcode is a technology for product packaging and labeling that enables encoding a Global Trade Identification Number (GTIN) imperceptibly into artwork prior to printing. The GTIN carried by Digimarc Barcode is the same as a traditional GTIN typically found in a product’s UPC/EAN barcode. Digimarc Barcode is designed to be redundantly spread throughout an entire product package or printed material. This enables easy, reliable optical capture without interfering with design aesthetics. Figure 22 - Digimarc Barcode distributed on all sides of the packaging DWCODE™ is the name that GS1 US and GS1 Germany use to describe a Digimarc Barcode data carrier. A DWCODE includes the Global Trade Item Number (GTIN), i.e. a globally unique number used to identify trade items, products or services. This number is typically found in barcodes such as Universal Product Code (UPC) or European Article Number (EAN). The process of incorporating a Digimarc Barcode data carrier into artwork is referred to as enhancement. Thanks to this process, Digimarc Barcode is imperceptible to the human eye but detectable to enabled camera-based scanners and mobile applications.

significant angular distortion may degrade reading performance. When mounting Matrix 120, take into consideration these ideal label position angles: Pitch or Skew 10° to 20° and Tilt 0°. Note: Since Matrix 120 is omni-directional on the code plane, the Pitch and Skew angles have the same significance with respect to the code plane. However, in some advanced code reading applications performance can be improved by modifying the Skew angle. The Pitch, Skew and Tilt angles are represented in Figure 32 -. Follow the suggestions below for the best orientation. Position the reader in order to avoid the direct reflection of the light emitted by the Matrix 120 reader; it is advised to assure at least 10° for the Skew angle. Figure 32 - Code Reading Orientation In some cases, such as low contrast or low illumination, it can be useful to use a Pitch or Skew angle = 0°. The Tilt angle is also represented in Figure 33 -. Matrix 120 can read labels with any tilt angle. Keep in mind however, that since linear barcodes are rectangular, the reader should be aligned to fit them into the horizontal FOV. No Pitch, Tilt or Skew Pitch Minimize Tilt any angle inside FOV Skew assure at least 10°

Product Reference Guide 53 Figure 33 - Tilt Angle Considerations See Chapter 6 for FOV vs. Reading Distance considerations. Focus Lock Label (optional) There are five single-use focus lock labels included in the packaging that can be use to protect the focus position from being changed after the application has been completed. These are adhesive labels that are designed to be applied over the focus screw as shown in the figure below. Linear Barcode Reading 2D Code Reading

All Matrix 120 models can be connected to a CBX connection box through the CAB-1011 accessory cable. This accessory cable terminates in an M12 17-pin connector on the Matrix 120 side and in a 25-pin male D-sub connector on the CBX side. We recommend making system connections through one of the CBX connection boxes since they offer the advantages of easy connection, easy device replacement, opto-isolated inputs (External Trigger and Input 2) and outputs (Outputs 1 and 2), and filtered reference signals. The table below gives the pinout of the CBX100/500 terminal block connectors. Use this pinout when the Matrix 120 reader is connected by means of the CBX100/500: CAUTION Do not use CAB-DSxx-S accessory cables with Matrix 120. NOTE If you require direct wiring to the reader the connections are the same as shown in Appendix A.

Main Serial Interface The signals relative to the following serial interface types are available on the CBX spring clamp terminal blocks. The main serial interface type and its parameters (baud rate, data bits, etc.) can be defined by the user via DL.CODE software. For more details refer to the Help On Line page of the Reading Phase step (Channels) in DL.CODE. Details regarding the connections and use of the interfaces are given in the next paragraphs. This interface can also be used for configuration through DL.CODE, see Step 4C - Serial Device Discovery. RS232 Interface The RS232 interface is generally used for Point-to-Point connections. When it is connected to the host computer it allows transmission of code data. The following pins are used for RS232 interface connection: It is always advisable to use shielded cables. The overall maximum cable length must be less than 15 m (49.2 ft). CAUTION Do not connect to the Main Interface spring clamp terminals if using Host Interface Mod- ules (Fieldbus) with the CBX500.

58 Matrix 120 Figure 37 - RS422 Full Duplex Connections Using Only TX Signals to Host Inputs There are two opto-isolated polarity insensitive inputs available when the reader is connected to the CBX: Input 1 (External Trigger) and Input 2, a generic input: The External Trigger can be used in One Shot Mode or in Phase Mode. Its main functions are: • acquisition trigger in One Shot Mode • reading phase-ON/reading phase-OFF command in Phase Mode The main functions of the general purpose Input 2 are: • second external trigger in Phase Mode • match code storage command when the Match Code option is enabled The electrical features of both inputs are: VAB = 30 Vdc max. IIN = 12 mA (CAB-1011) + 12 mA (CBX) max. The active state of these inputs are selected in software. NOTE For applications that do not use RS422 transmission to the reader (terminal block RX+ and RX- signals), do not leave these lines floating but connect them to SGND as shown below. CAUTION When Inputs 1 and 2 are connected through the CBX connection box, they become opto- isolated and polarity insensitive and acquire the electrical characteristics listed below. To function correctly, they require setting the Input Line Type configuration parameters to NPN for the respective input. The hardware connection to the CBX can be either NPN or PNP.

59 An anti-disturbance filter, by default, is implemented in software on both inputs. The value can be changed through the software parameter Debounce Filter. See the Help On Line page of the Reading Phase step (Inputs) in DL.CODE for further details on these parameters.

64 Matrix 120 Figure 45 - NPN Input 2 Using External Power Outputs Three general purpose outputs are available and their meaning can be defined by the user. They are typically used either to signal the data collection result or to control an external lighting system. The electrical features of the outputs are the following: CAUTION When Outputs 1 and 2 are connected through the CBX connection box, they become opto-isolated and polarity sensitive and acquire the electrical characteristics listed below. To function correctly, they require setting the Output Line Type configuration parameters to NPN for the respective output. The hardware connection to the CBX can be either NPN or PNP.

65 By default, Output 1 is associated with the No Read event, which activates when the code(s) signaled by the external trigger are not decoded, and Output 2 is associated with the Good Read event, which activates when all the selected codes are correctly decoded. The output signals are fully programmable being determined by the configured Activation/Deactivation events, Deactivation Timeout or a combination of the two.

Product Reference Guide 67 On-Board Ethernet Interface For Ethernet models, the on-board Ethernet Interface can be used for TCP/IP communication with a remote or local host computer by connecting the reader to either a LAN or directly to a host PC. There is no need to use a crossover adapter since Matrix 120 incorporates an auto-cross function. A CAB-ETH-M0x cable can be used to connect to a LAN. On the Matrix 120 on-board Ethernet interface the following communication channels are available: • TCP Client • TCP Server • UDP Channel • FTP Client The following Fieldbus protocols are also available over the on-board Ethernet interface: • EtherNet/IP • PROFINET IO • Modbus TCP Client For further details refer to the Help On Line page of the Reading Phase step (Channels) and (Fieldbuses) in DL.CODE.

they also require the correct setup of the software configuration parameters. Dotted lines in the figures refer to optional hardware configurations within the particular layout. Ethernet Connection The Ethernet connection is possible in two different layouts. In a Point-to-Point layout the reader is connected to a local host by using a CAB- ETH-M0x cable. There is no need to use a crossover adapter since Matrix 120 incorporates an autocross function. Figure 50 - Ethernet Point-to-Point Layout CAUTION Matrix 120 readers do not have Auxiliary Serial interfaces. Therefore, neither data monitoring nor device configuration ca be performed through this interface. Matrix 120 devices can be configured in DL.CODE through the Ethernet, Main Serial, or USB interfaces depending on the device model. 10-30 Vdc Host Matrix 120 CAB-ETH-M0x CBX    Ethernet Interface Auxiliary Serial Interface (Data Monitor) External Trigger (for One Shot or Phase Mode)    CAB-1011 External Power for Matrix 120 and I/O Accessories

Ethernet interface can be used for reader configuration by connecting a laptop computer running DL.CODE. Data can be transmitted on the RS232 auxiliary interface independently from the main interface selection to monitor data. When One Shot or Phase Mode operating mode is used, the reader can be acti- vated by an External Trigger (for example a pulse from a photoelectric sensor) when the object enters its reading zone.

71 Fieldbus Connection In this layout a single reader functions as a Slave node on a Fieldbus network. The data is transmitted to the Host through an accessory Fieldbus interface board installed inside the CBX500 connection box (i.e. BM300 Profibus or BM400 DeviceNet). Other I/O devices connected to the CBX can be controlled from the Filedbus Host through the Matrix reader. When One Shot or Phase Mode operating mode is used, the reader can be acti- vated by an External Trigger (photoelectric sensor) when the object enters its reading zone. Figure 53 - Fieldbus Interface Point-to-Point Layout CAUTION Matrix 120 readers do not have Auxiliary Serial interfaces. Therefore, neither data monitoring nor device configuration ca be performed through this interface. Once the Matrix 120 device is configured in DL.CODE for HMS Fieldbus communica- tion, the Main Serial channel is no longer available. Therefore, it is recommended to make these configurations when connected to DL.CODE through either the Ethernet interface (using CAB-ETH-Mxx) or the USB inter- face (using CAB-1021).

pass-through input channels and send this data plus its own on one or more dif- ferent output channels. In this way independent devices can be connected together in combinations to create multi device networks. Many devices reading independently can send their messages through a common output channel which instead of being directed at a Host can be collected by another device on its pass-through input channel and sent to a Host on a different output channel. Figure 54 - Pass-Through Layout In a Pass-through layout each device supports multiple pass-through configura- tions to accept input from different devices on different channels (i.e. middle reader above). However, readers are not required to have a pass-through config- uration if they don’t need to receive data from an input channel (i.e. right reader above). The overall data collection device always has at least one pass-through configuration to collect the input data from the other devices and send it to the Host (i.e. left reader above). All devices always support multiple output channels (i.e. for data monitoring).

73 USB Connection For Matrix 120 xxx-x0x models, the USB connection is possible in different lay- outs. Figure 55 - USB Point-to-Point Layout One or more Matrix 120 USB models can be connected to a USB Hub. The HUB must be able to supply 500 mA to each port.

The following diagrams show the maximum obtainable Field of View for 1D and 2D codes using Processing Mode = Advanced. Depending on the code resolution, symbology, and number of characters in the code, the Reading Area can be different from the FOV.

83 Reading Diagrams • The following reading diagrams are to be considered as references and are given for typical performance at 25°C using high quality grade A symbols: Code 128 (1D code) and Data Matrix ECC 200 (2D code) from the Test Charts available in the SW-DOCS-TEST CHARTS accessory (93ACC0148). • Testing should be performed with the actual Matrix 120 using application codes in order to evaluate whether maximizing application performance requires adjustments to the HW/SW configuration with respect to the Refer- ence Conditions given under each diagram. • The ratio of the Vertical FOV width with respect to the Horizontal FOV width in the diagrams depends on the models: - for WVGA it is about equal to 0.64; specifically 480/752. (e.e. FOVV.  FOVH x 0.64); - for MP it is about equal to 0.75; specifically 960/1280. (e.e. FOVV.  FOVH x 0.75). • The reading distance ranges are measured from the reading window sur- face. • Common software parameter settings: - reading all 1D code symbologies - Processing Mode=Standard; - reading 2D code symbologies - Processing Mode=Standard; Code Contrast=Low; Decoding Complexity=Medium. • When defining a HW/SW configuration for the Matrix 120 for conditions dif- ferent from those of the reference diagrams, it is suggested to keep in mind the following rules: - Changes in Exposure Time act directly proportional to the lumi- nosity of the image and inversely proportional to the maximum code reading movement speed. Consequently, reducing the Exposure Time by half reduces the luminosity of the image by half but doubles the theoretical code reading movement speed. - Changes in Gain act directly proportional to the luminosity of the image. However, increasing the Gain value can reduce the quality of the acquired image. • The max. theoretical Line Speed values for each diagram can be calculated using the formula in Chapter 6, Maximum Line Speed and Exposure Time Calculations.
