AV500 DIMENSIONS
APPLICATIONS OVERVIEW
An AV500 reading system consists of a reader/camera for acquiring images and reading
the codes on a target. Because of the reading area of the AV500 it is good choice for sta‐
tionary presentation scanning systems, as well as systems over moving conveyor.
6 AV500 2D CAMERA
Applications
The AV500 cameras are specifically designed for industrial applications requiring high
reading performance such as:
•
Low aspect ratio barcodes
•
Codes covered by plastic film
•
Codes located within a large depth of field
•
Codes within a wide field of view
•
High resolution codes positioned at far distances from the barcode reader
•
Fast moving objects
The AV500 is designed for multi‐head arrays, single side or multi side tunnels and hybrid
configurations. It can also be used as a stand alone unit.
Stand Alone Presentation Scanning
Manual Presentation Scanning
In Manual Material Handling or Parcel Scanning applications, manual presentation scan‐
ning is often the preferred method for item identification. Maximum productivity and
operational efficiency is maintained, while the stationary overhead reader continuously
scans the working area, the operator can easily and quickly handle objects of various
dimensions and weights. Since no point‐and‐shot is required for scanning, no extra tools
or infrastructure is necessary in the working area; no extra operations for part identifi‐
cation other than passing the object through the scanning zone. No training is required
for users. The large coverage area and fast acquisition rate – by AV500 – permits rapidly
handling objects in sequence with great tolerance. White illumination and continuous
high power mode enable top performance with the maximum comfort for operators.
Single or Multi-Unit Tunnels and Arrays
Many AV500 reading system applications will read over a moving conveyor and use a
network of multiple devices.
•
Optical Encoder Wheel (Tachometer): Used underneath a conventional conveyor.
The encoder generates a pulse per specified distance (mm [in]) of conveyor travel.
•
Internal Tach: This is a software‐generated pulse mimicking an encoder/tachome‐
ter.
PRODUCT REFERENCE GUIDE 7
A position sensor (DM3610, light curtain or S85 Position Sensor) is often used as a trig‐
ger source. When the height or left/right focus data measured by the sensor goes over a
certain threshold, a package is entering the image valid start, and when it goes under
the threshold, the package is providing the image valid stop. Sometimes this sensor is
not sufficiently precise and an additional Presence Sensor input is used. When the
codes are located on more than one face of the parcel, more than one reader is neces‐
sary (multi‐camera reading station). In this case, one of the bar code readers (the Con‐
troller) collects the information from all the sensors and distributes it to the other
readers using a dedicated Ethernet connection. A CBX connection box is used to simplify
the connection of the camera to the other system components.
Airport Baggage Handling
Baggage handling system airport arrays use multiple scanners and controllers as neces‐
sary to properly cover conveyors carrying passenger luggage through an airport baggage
handling system. Several cameras, a CBX and an SC5000 Controller are required. Some‐
times a Redundant System is required to provide duplicate controller and scanner sta‐
tions for improved reliability and performance.
Automated Parcel Sorting
Easy installation, maintenance, superior performance, and longer life‐cycle make AV500
a compelling solution for over‐the‐belt reading.
5.0 megapixel image captures where each single shot frames the entire area. One‐
reader‐one‐shot obtains maximum reading throughput. Image capture is associated
with the data of each sorted item and for any reporting or analysis purposes. Other
devices can be used for scanning applications of large conveyors or multi‐sided reading,
through ID‐NET clustering, multiple readers can be effectively combined to extend the
scanning area.
8 AV500 2D CAMERA
Image Acquisition
The AV500 contains both the acquisition device or “imager,” which works in strict real
time to acquire the best possible images and the decoding device or “decoder” in one
chassis. These parts of the AV500 interpret the data received.
The camera can use several kinds of external sensors:
•
Speed Sensor: If mounted over moving conveyor, the camera needs to know the
speed of the objects to be acquired. The speed sensor is usually an encoder/
tachometer connected to the belt, or an internal software tachometer.
•
Height/Side Position Sensor: The focusing position is computed by the camera
based on the position of the parcel measured by a height sensor. Sensors may be a
DM3610 Dimensioner, AREAscan™ DS2 Light Array (LCC‐75xx Light Curtain Kit) or
S85.
•
Trigger Source: In multiple camera systems, each package has to be uniquely iden‐
tified by all the cameras. For this reason, all of the cameras in a reading station
share a unique trigger source.
All the sensors are connected to the Controller camera that interprets the information
and distributes it to the Client cameras.The start and stop of an acquisition are triggered
by a start/stop event generated by the trigger device (position sensor, photo sensor,
read now signal). The acquisition of a package doesn’t start when the trigger source
detects it, but with a certain delay depending on:
•
the distance between the trigger device and the view line at belt level
•
the view line angle (alpha) of the camera
•
the speed of the object
•
the height of the package
Based on the AV500 mounting position, the unit tries to acquire one (reading angle
alpha = 15°) or two faces of the parcel (alpha = +/‐45°).
45 Degrees
PRODUCT REFERENCE GUIDE 9
A typical reading station may also include:
•
Power Supply Systems: The AV500 requires a 24 Vic power supply. Usually each
camera has its own power supply system (i. e. PWR‐480B).
•
External Mirrors: To cover the requested reading field, the cameras must be posi‐
tioned at a given distance from their targets. In order to create reading stations as
small as possible, a deflection mirror is often inserted between the target and the
camera. See examples below.

FOCUSING DEVICES AND POSITION SENSORS
There are several focusing device options available for the AV500 Camera, see section
Five for details.
Photoelectric Sensor
The Datalogic Photoelectric Sensor is used in AV500 camera systems to detect the pres‐
ence of an item entering the scanning area.
The photoelectric sensor is used in singulated conveyor systems where the packages are
separated by an open space between the trailing edge of one package and the leading
edge of the next. In irregular package applications, the photoelectric sensor assists in
maintaining the package footprint so that the AV500 camera will only scan and provide
data for a specific package.
Depending on the application, these devices may need to be configured differently.
While the photoelectric sensor and tachometer work well with belt conveyors, a special
configuration is needed for tilt‐tray and cross‐belt sorter applications.

solutions represents a crucial competitive advantage for challenging application
requirements.
•
Auto PackTrack Calibration procedure from SC5000 Menu using e‐Genius web
based setup software.
•
Energy Saving allows turning on/off the motors and lasers of all network scanners
according to the selected digital input, encoder, or communication channel. The
time required to restart the system is less than 1 minute independently from the
number of scanners connected. It is suggested to use this parameter for example
when the conveyor is stopped for a lengthy period.
•
Three Inputs (Trigger, Encoder/Tachometer, IN3), three Outputs (OUT1, OUT2,
OUT3), one configurable I/O Port (IN4/OUT4). See and 2.3.8 Digital Output Config‐
uration.
26 AV500 2D CAMERA
The SC5000 Controller is divided into two parts:
•
The upper part (alloy case) contains the Controller’s digital section; here you can
find the four Ethernet M12 connectors, the removable SD‐Flash memory, the dis‐
play, the keypad and the LEDs.
•
The lower part (plastic case) contains the connection board, the place for the
optional Fieldbus modules and the connector panel.
The simple and sturdy mechanical structure makes the SC5000 Controller the ideal solu‐
tion for industrial environments.
The SC5000 Controller is fully compatible with DS8110 and DX8210 scanners.
The SC5000 Controller allows connection to the Trigger and Encoder/Tach. PNP inputs
are available via M12 circular connectors, placed on the lower front panel.
This configuration covers a great part of all the possible user’s needs.
You can get access to all the Inputs and Outputs, in both PNP and NPN polarity, using
the optional CBX510 connection box accessory; in this case you must connect the box to
the controller using the CAB SC5000 TO CBX510 accessory cable.

CHAPTER 2
MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
PREPARING FOR MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
Before mounting any components, please do the following:
•
Read all instructions before beginning your installation.
•
Define and confirm the accuracy of your application’s requirements and structure
position, especially the height of the conveyor from the floor.
•
Review all installation‐specific drawings provided with your equipment.
•
Review and plan the mechanical installation of all devices used in your application.
Be sure to allow adequate clearance for maintenance.
•
Review and plan the power requirements for your application.
•
Check the contents of the shipping cartons against the packing list.
•
Record all product serial numbers.
General Mounting Guidelines
As you plan and install your AV500 camera imaging system, keep the following guide‐
lines in mind:
•
Follow application drawings for structural details and barcode reader placement.
•
Determine the proper orientation and position of the barcode reader(s).
•
Leave adequate clearances (approximately 300 mm [12 in]) for wiring.
•
Route wires carefully to reduce or minimize electrical noise. When power and
communication wiring must cross, make their intersection perpendicular. Avoiding
sharp wire bends or loops, which can affect performance.
•
Proper grounding limits the effects of noise due to Electromagnetic Interference
(EMI).
Application-specific drawings and documents provided by Datalogic supersede any con-
tradictory content in this manual.
It is important that you follow these general precautions when installing, setting up, oper-
ating, maintaining, troubleshooting, or replacing any Datalogic products, parts or related
equipment.
28 AV500 2D CAMERA
Mounting Structure Considerations
Your first task is to mount your AV500 camera. You can provide your own mounting
structure or Datalogic can design one for you. We recommend using a Datalogic mount‐
ing structure for standard applications.
Your mounting structure must provide the following capabilities:
•
It is adjustable enough for you to move your unit to the optimum position for
proper scanning.
•
It allows a technician access to the camera while it is mounted.
•
It must be as vibration free as possible so as not to affect the scanning accuracy.
•
It is constructed of steel or aluminum.
Maintaining Thermal Performance
All electronic devices and circuitry generate excess heat and thus require thermal man‐
agement to improve reliability and prevent premature failure. The AV500 is no excep‐
tion, an internal fan is critical to maintaining AV500 performance. Also, proper clearance
must be provided to the unit. There must be at least 300 mm (12 in) clearance behind
the unit for fan air intake and you must use the mounting bracket provided with your
unit to help maintain proper clearance and air flow.
The fan of the AV500 is a field replaceable part. Request spare part number:
8900006713. Instructions are included.
UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS
Verify that the AV500 Camera and all the parts supplied with the equipment are present
and intact when opening the packaging; the list of parts includes:
•
AV500 Camera
•
Installation Guide
•
Test Chart
•
Mounting Bracket
The AV500 cannot be mounted parallel to the conveyor belt. A 15 degree angle or more is
required to avoid specular reflection.
There must be at least 300 mm (12 in) clearance behind the unit for fan air intake!
Refer to the Chapter “Preparing for Electrical Installation” on page 41 and Reference Documenta-
tion for details on connecting your readers to other devices in the system.
When installing several AV500s, take care to position them so that no laser beam or LED
illumination enters the reading window of other barcode reading devices in the system. This
condition could occur more frequently for side mounted applications. If these precautions
are not followed, read rate could be negatively affected. To resolve this problem, it is suffi-
cient to slightly change the inclination and/or position of one of the two devices involved.
2. Remove the
foam layer to
reveal the AV500

INSTALLING THE DEFLECTION MIRROR
EMK series External Deflection Mirrors are mounted in applications where it is not prac‐
tical to mount the reader in a position to achieve the full DOF. In these cases a more
compact reading station can be constructed using the mirror to fold the camera’s view
and is particularly useful in side reading applications.
The diagram below is for illustration purposes to show how it is not always practical to
mount the reader at the necessary distance to achieve the desired DOF and FOV. Refer to
your application specific diagrams for more information.

A recommended power supply and cabling is available for the AV500 Camera. However,
if your installation requires custom power supply wiring, the pin‐outs of the AV500 cam‐
era power connector are provided below.
SELECTING THE CORRECT CBX CONNECTION BOX FOR YOUR
APPLICATION
As shown in section Typical Connection Block Diagrams, typical applications require a
single CBX connection box to connect the trigger and encoder inputs to the master cam‐
era. The camera sources power to these devices. Other possible CBX connections are for
digital outputs or a serial host.
•
CBX100/CBX500 ‐ used for slave cameras (and as an alternative for master cam‐
eras). It provides general access to digital input/output signals.
When using an AV500 camera, no power supply is required for the CBX510 connection box.
All power and some communication options are fed to the CBX510 through the scanner’s 17-
pin I/O connector to the CBX510 25-pin connector using the cable provided.
In cases where the AS-I cabling is not used, the alternative CAB-LP-05 cable can be used to
connect the power supply to the scanner. Connect the Brown/White pair to +24 Vdc and the
Blue/Black pair to dc return. Chassis ground needs to be connected. Use cable CS-A1-02
that has 5th ray wire.
50 AV500 2D CAMERA
•
CBX510 ‐ used for typical standalone or master cameras (cannot be used for slave
cameras). It provides general access to digital input/output signals. It doesn't
require special jumpers to set operation or power sourcing.
•
CBX800 ‐ used for Fieldbus communication between standalone or master cam‐
eras and a Host. Various Fieldbus modules can be installed in the CBX800. The
master camera communicates through its main serial interface to the CBX800
which must be programmed for the specific Fieldbus communication to the Host.
It also provides general access to digital input/output signals.The table below indi‐
cates the available options for each recommended CBX Connection Box.

Grounding
To avoid any problems with electrical noise that could negatively affect system function,
make sure that:
1.
The AC power cable coming into the PWR box is always provided with a Ground
and connected to the proper connector (Protective Earth ‐ PE).
2.
The structure where the readers, controllers, encoders/tachometers, and photo‐
electric sensors are mounted is grounded to the conveyor or to the PE terminal
inside the PWR.
3.
The Shield wires from the Encoder/Tachometer and photoelectric sensor cables
are connected to the proper Shield terminal in the CBX box.
4.
Normally, steps 1 through 3 will guarantee proper function. In case of problems
such as transmission of strange or wrong characters, devices stop working without
any reason, or other unexpected behavior, try connecting the CBX or Controller
Earth terminal to the PE terminal inside the PWR box.
