General Description

The new DX8200A is a top performance omni-directional laser bar code scanner, purposely designed to satisfy the needs of sorting applications for the Transportation & Logistics market. Datalogic used its experience with the DX8200 to develop the DX8200A, making it a more compact, increased performance omni-directional scanner. It is based on the innovative 3-diode structure, that offers an unbeatable real time Depth Of Field. As a result of improved ASTRA™ technology that increases its already impressive performance, 3 laser diodes are electronically switched from one to the other, depending on the bar code distance from the scanner. This means that the scanner is able to capture the bar code on an object of any possible shape, in any position, as the DX8200A focuses on the bar code and not on the object profile. Advanced ASTRA™ technology, moreover, permits the PackTrack™function, that reduces the min. object gap and increases the system throughput, to be fully exploited. The SW platform of the new DX8200A, based on the GENIUS™ program, permits 100% control of scanner behavior via SW: the new DIGITECH™ signal processing 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 scanner family (DS6300, DS6400, DS6500) and the SC6000 industrial controller making Datalogic's offer more flexible and scalable, with numerous possibilities and solutions. Connectivity has been improved with the introduction of built-in Ethernet connectivity with implemented TCP-IP, Ethernet/IP, Modbus TCP and Profinet protocols. Moreover, the new DX8200A offers built-in connectivity to Profibus and Devicenet. A practical display with keyboard increases the DX8200A's ease of use by offering a simple and complete human interface without the need of a PC. The new ASR™ function permits completely automatic slave scanner replacement.
