5.1.5 Mounting the BL-600 Series without the mounting bracket
1. Check the surroundings of the mounting position.
Check the surroundings according to “5.1.1 Situations to check for before
installing the BL-600 Series” on pages 72 and 73.
2. Temporarily mount the BL-600 Series in position.
The BL-600 Series must be installed so that laser beam is applied at an angle of
approximately 15
° with reference to a line perpendicular to the target.
This means that the BL-600/601/600HA/601HA must be titled at an angle of 15
°.
Since the BL-650HA/651HA emits a laser beam at an angle of 17
°, tilting the unit
is unnecessary.
Mount the BL-600 Series in the following orientation according to the laser beam
orientation to be used.
BL-600/601/600HA/601HA
BL-650HA/651HA
➮ See “5.1.2 Mounting angle and distance” on page 74 for the mounting distance.
*
The laser beam application angle for the BL-650HA/651HA is 17
° ±3° with
reference to a line perpendicular to the rear surface of the unit.
3. Check the reliability of the bar code reading using the Test mode.
Check the reliability of the bar code reading using “Reading rate check mode”.
➮ See pages 94 to 96.
4. Check the surroundings and adjust the mounting distance and angle.
If the bar code reading is unreliable, check/adjust the position again by referring
to “5.1.1 Situations to check for before installing the BL-600 Series” on pages
72 and 73 and “5.1.2 Mounting angle and distance” on page 74.
