3 Device description
3.1 Device overview
3.1.1 About the DCR200i code reader
The code readers of the DCR200i series are camera-based code readers for all commonly used bar
codes, stacked codes and Data Matrix codes (e.g. Code128, EAN8/13, ECC200, QR etc.) as well as for
codes of the GS1DataBar family.
The extensive options for device configuration via control buttons, configuration codes or software enable
adaptation to a multitude of reading tasks. The high resolution in combination with a very high depth of field
as well as the compact design make the device ideal for use in packaging machines.
Code readers of the DCR200i series perform numerous tasks in industrial code reading such as:
• Omnidirectional code reading
• Reading of codes while at a standstill or in motion
• Manual reading by holding up codes
• In packaging machines
• In automatic handling and testing machines
The DCR2xxi code readers are available in several optics models:
• DCR2xxi with UltraHighDensity optics (U-optics)
• DCR2xxi with HighDensity optics (N-optics)
• DCR2xxi with MediumDensity optics (M-optics)
• DCR2xxi with LowDensity optics (F-optics)
• DCR2xxi with UltraLowDensity optics (L-optics)
The DCR2xxi code readers are operated as a “stand-alone” single device with individual IP address in an
Ethernet star topology.
Information on technical data and characteristics: see chapter 15 "Technical data".
3.1.2 Performance characteristics
• Decoding of 1D-, stacked- and 2D-codes
• Maximum depth of field and reading distance of approx. 40mm…800mm
