External Light Mounting BracketsYou can mount your reader using external light mounting brackets. Thebrackets are intended to mount any of the different lights to the reader.They can also be used to mount the reader (with lights attached) toyour machine. Pivot mounting, as illustrated, is optional. Perform thefollowing steps:Choose one of the following light options: Using coaxial (DOAL) light Using dark field light1. Mount your reader on the camera plate and attach the screws. Using ring light Using spot light2. Mount your reader with the camera plate attached to any of theexternal light bracket adapters.34 DataMan 360 Quick Reference GuideDataMan 360 Quick Reference Guide35

Setting FocusThere is a range of reading distances available for different code sizesand focus positions. To set focus on your reader, use the following optionsdepending on whether you use a liquid lens or a manual focus lens.Liquid LensManual Focus LensFocus Feedback (Results Display)Focus Feedback (Results Display)For setting Focus Sweep, follow these guidelines: If your application has a consistent reading range, set the focusrange to a limited depth of field with no steps (for example, set it to20) or with limited steps (for example, set it to 2 steps between 0and 30). This way you can achieve fast performance. If your application has a variety of code types and sizes, set the focusrange to a wider depth of field with increased number of steps (forexample, set it to 6 steps between 0 and 200). This way you can getbetter coverage.Both Optimize Focus and the Focus Feedback use the sameprocedure for testing the current focus. They consider varioussubregions of the image.Optimize Focus (Focus Settings)For maximizing the performance of Optimize Focus and Focus Feedback,observe the following:Focus Sweep (Focus Settings) Use a focus target (such as the one supplied with this QuickReference Guide) that includes high-contrast features and is bigenough that it fills at least a 100x100 pixel region in the center of thefield of view at the desired working distance. Make sure the target is perfectly flat (avoid floppy pieces of paper). Make sure that the target is perfectly perpendicular to the optical axisof the reader. Make sure that the rest of the field of view (such as the part notcovered by the focus target) does not contain any high-contrastfeatures. For example, you would ideally fill the entire field of viewwith a white card or sheet of paper (no shadows), then position thefocus target in the middle. The supplied focus target (120x120mm) is appropriate for typicalworking distances. If you are using a working distance such that the36 DataMan 360 Quick Reference GuideDataMan 360 Quick Reference Guide37

Setting Focus (Continued)Fieldof View and Reading Distances target does not completely fill the image, make sure that there are no highcontrast features visible outside of the target (see previous bullet).Notes:The following maps show the field of view of the DataMan 360 readers.Reading distance values are also provided for 1-D and 2-D examplecode distances.If you are using the focus feedback indicator to adjust a manual focus lens,you must apply power to the reader before you remove the cover. If youremove the cover before applying power, the internal illumination will notfunction.For the C-mount (or other non-Cognex) S-Mount lenses, the lens’s focallength, focus setting, and aperture setting determine the field of viewand reading distance.If you are using a Liquid Lens, make sure that the cover is mounted andconnected before you apply power. If you attach or remove the front coverwhile the reader is powered, the focus settings will be lost.Perform the following steps to use Focus Feedback:1. Connect the reader to the Setup Tool.2. On the Results Display pane, check the Focus Feedback option and enableLive Display.3. The Focus Feedback column is displayed in colors ranging from red (badfocus) through yellow to green (sharp focus).Position the reader in a way that the focus column becomes green. Themaximum focus peak gets locked for better orientation. When the focuscolumn is green, the lens is in focus and you will be able to decode the image.38 DataMan 360 Quick Reference GuideDataMan 360 Quick Reference Guide39

Download the DataMan Setup Tool fromhttp://www.cognex.com/support/dataman and follow the on-screensteps.3. Connect the DataMan 360 reader to your PC.4. Launch the Setup Tool and click Refresh.Detected readers will appear under COM ports or Networkdevices, or both.5. Select a reader from the list and click Connect.Do not stare into beam when adding, removing, orchanging cables. Cognex recommends to unpower thereader any time you make physical changes to it.CONNECT YOUR READER1. Connect the I/O RS232 24V cable to your reader.2. For a network connection, connect your reader, through an Ethernetcable, to your network.3. Connect the cable to a 24V power supply.DataMan 360 Quick Reference Guide53

Troubleshooting an Ethernet ConnectionBased on your network configuration, the Setup Tool may not be able tocommunicate with the reader and it will not appear in the list of Networkdevices.First check your Ethernet connection with the reader and click Refresh in theSetup Tool. Next, scan the Enable DHCP code in the Reader ConfigurationCodes document available from the Start menu. This might allow the reader toacquire a suitable IP address from a DHCP server on your subnet.If the reader still does not appear, you can use either the Add Device or ForceNetwork Settings options in the Setup Tool.If you know the IP address of the reader, use the Add Device option. If youdo not know the IP address, use the Force Network Settings options. Eithermethod should allow the DataMan 360 reader to appear in the list of Networkdevices so that you can connect to it through the Setup Tool and yourEthernet connection.You can also use the RS-232 connection to configure the reader withparameters that allow it to communicate over your Ethernet network.Industrial ProtocolsThe DataMan 360 readers support the following industrial protocols: EtherNet/IP PROFINETMC ProtocolModbus TCPSelect industrialprotocol samples andtools you want to usewhen you install theDataMan Software.There are three ways to enable or disable Industrial Protocols. Usingeither method, a reboot is required for the changes to come into effect. Enable the protocols using the Industrial Protocols pane of theDataManSetup Tool (under Communication Settings). Scan the appropriate Reader Configuration codes (see ReaderConfiguration Codes available through the Windows Start menu orthe Setup Tool Help menu). Send the appropriate DMCC (see Command Reference availablethrough the Windows Start menu or the Setup Tool Help menu).54 DataMan 360 Quick Reference GuideFor more information on using the industrial protocols, read theDataManCommunications and Programming Guide available through theWindows Start menu or the Setup Tool Help menu.DataMan 360 Quick Reference Guide55

DataMan 360 TriggeringExternal TriggersDataMan 360 readers support the following trigger modes:If you are using external triggering you can use any of these methods totrigger your DataMan 360 reader: Self: At an interval you configure, the reader automatically detects anddecodes codes in its field of view. If you set a higher re-read delay than thetrigger interval, there is a code output only once until the code is out of thefield of view for the duration of the re-read delay. Single (external trigger): Acquires a single image and attempts to decodeany symbol it contains, or more than one symbol in cases where multicodeis enabled. The reader relies on an external trigger source. Presentation: Scans, decodes and reports a single code in the field of view.The reader relies on an internal timing mechanism to acquire images. Manual: Begins acquiring images when you press the trigger button on thereader, and continues acquiring images until a symbol is found and decodedor you release the button. Burst: Performs multiple image acquisitions based on an external triggerand decodes any symbol appearing in a single image or within a sequenceof images, or multiple symbols in a single image or within a sequence ofimages when multicode is enabled. You can control the number of imageswithin each burst and the interval between image acquisitions. Continuous: Begins acquiring images based on a single external tr
