3 Device description
3.1 Device overview
3.1.1 The CR 100 bar code reader
The CR 100 bar code reader is a CCD based line scanner with integrated decoder for all commonly used
bar codes, e.g. 2/5 Interleaved, Code 39, Code 128, EAN etc..
The many possible configurations of the device allow it to be adapted to a multitude of reading tasks. Due
to the small dimensions of the unit and its wide reading field, the CR 100 may also be used in highly
constrained spaces.
Information on technical data and characteristics: see chapter 12.
3.1.2 Stand alone operation
The CR 100 bar code reader is operated as a “standalone” single device. It is equipped with a six-wire
cable with open ends for the electrical connection of the supply voltage, the interface, the switching input
and the switching output.
3.2 Performance characteristics
• High-performance CCD scanner with front or lateral beam exit
• Reading field optimized to a reading field height of 80 mm even at short distances
• Compact design for simple integration, even in constrained spaces
• Scanning rate of 700 scans/s facilitates reliable reading, even while in motion
• Reading of all common codes of modulus sizes 150 – 500 μm (6-20 mil) at a reading field height of
≥ 80 mm
• Robust metal housing with cable connection
• RS 232 interface, one switching input, one switching output

4 Mounting
You can fasten the CR 100 at the M3 mounting threads on both sides of the device.
4.1 Selecting a mounting location
In order to select the right mounting location, several factors must be considered:
• size, orientation, and position tolerance of the bar codes on the objects to be scanned.
• the reading field of the CR 100 in relation to the bar code module width.
• the CR 100 is designed for reading codes in ladder orientation.
• the resulting minimum and maximum reading distance from the respective reading field; see
figure 12.2.
• alignment of the bar code reader for avoiding reflections.
• distance between CR 100 and host system with respect to the interface.
The best read results are obtained when
• the reading distance lies in the middle area of the reading field.
• there is no direct sunlight and extraneous light is avoided.
• the bar code labels are of good print quality and have good contrast ratios.
• you do not use high-gloss labels.
• the bar code is moved past the reading window with a rotational angle of 10° to 15°.
• the red light beam is narrowed down for its respective reading task in order to avoid reflections on
shiny components.
α Azimuth angle
β Angle of inclination
γ Angle of rotation
Recommended angle of rotation: γ > 10°
Figure 4.1: Definition of the CR 100 reading angles
The size of the bar code module influences the maximum reading distance and the width of the
reading field. Therefore, when selecting a mounting location and/or the bar code label, take into
account the different reading characteristics of the scanner with various bar code modules.
NOTICE
Observe when choosing the mounting location!
Maintaining the required environmental conditions (temperature, humidity).
Possible soiling of the reading window due to liquids, abrasion by boxes, or packaging material resi-
dues.
Lowest possible chance of damage to the scanner by mechanical collision or jammed parts.
Possible extraneous light influence (no direct sunlight).
With front beam exit, the beam exit on the CR 100 is nearly vertical to the reading window; with
lateral beam exit, the beam exit is at 13° from vertical. The bar code label must be rotated by
> 10° to avoid a total reflection of the red light beam in the case of glossy labels.

Electrical connection
Leuze electronic CR 100 11
5 Electrical connection
5.1 Voltage supply
The CR 100 bar code reader is designed for connection to a 5 V supply voltage.
• +5 V DC (red)
• GND (violet)
Available as an accessory is an adapter circuit board with spring terminals and 9-pin SUB-D socket; see
chapter 13.2 "Accessories".
• With the adapter circuit board, the conductors of the CR 100 connection cable can be contacted via
the spring terminals and connected to the PC via the 9-pin SUB-D socket with an RS 232 intercon-
nection cable.
• With the adapter circuit board, the voltage supply from 10 … 30 V DC can be fed in via spring termi-
nals or, alternatively, 5 V DC can be fed in via a micro USB connector.
5.2 Pin assignment of the CR 100 connection cable
5.3 Switching input/Switching output
The CR 100 is provided with a switching input and a switching output. You can configure the functions of
the switching input or switching output according to your needs via the
Sensor Studio configuration soft-
ware; see chapter 6.
5.3.1 Switching input
By means of the SW IN switching input connection, you can trigger a read process in the standard setting
(low = active) with the connection SW IN (orange) and GND (violet). The 2.2 kΩ “pull-up” resistor must be
connected externally; see figure 5.1.
CAUTION
Safety notices
The CR 100 bar code reader is completely sealed and must not be opened.
Do not try to open the device under any circumstances, as this voids both degree of protection IP 40
and the warranty.
Before connecting the device, be sure that the supply voltage agrees with the value printed on the
name plate.
Connection of the device and maintenance work while under voltage must only be carried out by a
qualified electrician.
The power supply unit for the generation of the supply voltage for the CR 100 and the corresponding
connection units must have a secure electrical insulation according to IEC 60742 (PELV). For UL
applications: only for use in “class 2” circuits according to NEC.
If faults cannot be corrected, the device should be removed from operation and protected against pos-
sible commissioning.

Via the serial interface, you can configure the CR 100 by means of a PC or terminal. For this, you need an
RS 232 connection that establishes the RxD, TxD and GND connections between PC and CR 100.
The RS 232 connection can be established in the following ways:
• Direct connection of the CR 100 connection wires to the PC or terminal via its own connector.
• Connection via an MA-CR adapter circuit board
To simplify the connection of the connection wires to the PC interface, an adapter circuit board (MA-
CR) is available for implementing individual wire contacting to SUB-D, 9-pin; see chapter 13.2.

Configuration and diagnostic software - Sensor Studio
Leuze electronic CR 100 15
6 Configuration and diagnostic software - Sensor Studio
The Sensor Studio configuration software provides a graphical user interface for the operation, configura-
tion and diagnosis of the device via the RS 232 interface.
A device that is not connected to the PC can be configured offline.
Configurations can be saved and reopened as projects for transferring back to the device at a later time.
The
Sensor Studio configuration software is designed according to the FDT/DTM concept:
• You make the individual configuration settings for the CR 100 bar code reader in the Device Type
Manager (DTM).
• The individual DTM configurations of a project can be called up via the frame application of the Field
Device Tool (FDT).
• Communication DTM for bar code readers:
LeCommInterface
• Device DTM for bar code readers CR 100
Procedure for the installation of the software and hardware:
Install the
Sensor Studio configuration software on the PC.
Install the communication and device DTM.
Communication and device DTM are included in the
LeAnalysisCollectionSetup installation package.
Create CR 100-DTM in the project tree of the
Sensor Studio FDT frame.
Connect the CR 100 to the PC; see chapter 5.4
Activate the service interface on the CR 100; see chapter 7.3.2

6.2.3 Intalling communication DTM and device DTM for CR 100
Prerequisites:
• An FDT frame is installed on the PC.
Start the
LeAnalysisCollection.exe file from the installation package and follow the instructions on the
screen.
The Installation Wizard installs communication DTM and device DTM for CR 100.
Administrator privileges on the PC are necessary for installing Sensor Studio .
The installation files of the Sensor Studio configuration software must be downloaded from the
Internet at www.leuze.com.
For subsequent updates, you can find the most recent version of the
