OSCILLATING MIRROR MODELS
Oscillating mirror models are used when coverage of a large reading area is required, mainly in picket fence
applications.
The oscillating mirror is placed in front of the reading aperture of the DS8100A scanner to deflect the laser beam.
As the mirror moves, this sweeping function of the laser beam allows the coverage of a larger area to locate the
barcodes.
The aperture angle is symmetrical and the scan line perpendicular to the scanner is at 0° as shown in the figure
below.
0°
+25°
-25°
By configuring the oscillating speed up to the maximum value of 19 Hz, raster emulation can be performed for
reading fast moving objects.
Hz Max. Aperture
0-5 50°
6-10 30°
11-15 20°
16-19 10°
NOTE
By limiting the raster width to the minimum necessary, the number of scans on the reading
surface is increased.
