5.1 CLEANING
Clean the laser beam output window periodically for correct operation of the scanner (see
Figure A in chapter "General View").
Dust, dirt, etc. on the window may alter the reading performance.
Repeat the operation frequently in particularly dirty environments.
Use soft material and alcohol to clean the window and avoid any abrasive substances.
WARNING
Clean the window of the DX6400 when the scanner is turned off or at
least when the laser beam is not active.
5.2 AUTOMATIC SCANNER REPLACEMENT
The Datalogic Automatic Scanner Replacement (ASR) procedure allows restoring system
functioning automatically after one or more scanners are replaced in a Master/Slave
Lonworks network.
The ASR procedure is principally used for PackTrack™ configurations, since it restores the
PackTrack™ calibration from the slave scanner to be substituted to the new scanner.
The Master must be prepared at the time of installation in order for this procedure to work
correctly.
5.2.1 ASR Network Configuration
1. On the Master scanner, check the Modify & Backup Lon Slave Scanner
Configuration parameter in Genius™ and configure the Lonworks Slave Scanner
Common Parameters (Code and Reconstruction Parameters).
2. Enable the ASR procedure through the Enable A.S.R. parameter in the Master
configuration.
3. Send the configuration to the Master EEPROM to force the Slave Operating Mode, Code
Reading Symbologies, Reconstruction parameters and store all the Slave PackTrack™
calibration tables.
Now the Slave scanners are configured through the Master and the ASR procedure is
implemented.
4. Save this configuration to file (.ddc).
