Preventing reflection and glare
Reflection and glare from reflective surfaces can impair the captured image and
therefore lead to incorrect readings. To prevent reflection and glare, install the
stationary reading device at a slight angle.

5.3 Connecting the device
Connecting the power supply
To connect a power supply to the device, proceed as follows.
1. Plug the 15-pin Sub-D socket into the connector provided for this purpose on
the back of the housing.
2. Screw in the two mounting screws as far as possible.
This ensures that the cable cannot be inadvertently pulled out.
3. Next connect the power supply to the appropriate pins on the Sub-D socket.
The power supply has now been connected.
To connect the power supply to the device quicker, the pre-configured connection
cable can also be used. Information can be found in the Accessories section.

Note!
Connection to ground
When installing the device, ensure that it is has a ground connection.
Note!
Record the network configuration
The device communicates with the connected machine control system using the
TCP/IP protocol. To ensure communication works correctly, you must note down
all the changes you make to the network configuration.

ODT-MAC400-* / ODT-MAC401-* / ODT-MAC403-*
Installation
Establishing a network connection
In order to establish a network connection, proceed as follows.
When delivered, the device has a fixed IP address (192.168.2.2). To facilitate
communication within the network, you must configure your network. The
configuration data can be found in the network configuration overview.
Connecting a trigger sensor
To connect a trigger sensor, proceed as follows.
Connect the trigger sensor to the cable previously connected for the power
supply.
5.4 Assigning an IP address to a network connection using Windows
XP
To assign an IP address to a network connection using Windows XP,
proceed as follows.
1. First select "Network Connections".
2. Then open the required connection by double clicking on it.
The Properties dialog box for the relevant connection will open.
Note!
Network cabling
Use a crossover network cable to connect the device directly to a PC. If the device
is being operated within a network, use a twisted-pair network cable to connect it
to the network.

3. Select the "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" element from the Properties dialog
box by double clicking on it.
The TCP/IP properties dialog box will open.
4. In the TCP/IP properties dialog box, activate "Use the following IP
address".

Installation
5. Enter an IP address which only differs from the sensor IP address in the very
last segment.
6. Enter 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask.
7. Then confirm your entries on the TCP/IP properties page and the LAN
connection properties page using "OK" and "Close".
This completes the network configuration and the sensor can be used.
5.5 Storage and transport
For storage and transport purposes, package the unit using shockproof
packaging material and protect it against moisture. The best method of protection
is to package the unit using the original packaging. Furthermore, ensure that the
ambient conditions are within allowable range.

6.1 Connecting the stationary reader
The reader has its own web server. You have the option of making settings on the
stationary reader using a standard web browser.
Aligning the stationary reader
To find the ideal alignment for the device, use the two laser diodes in the
stationary reader.
1. Supply power to the reader via the D-Sub connector.
2. Adjust the stationary reader so that both points generated by the laser diodes
are positioned on top of each other on the code to be read.
This sets the ideal reading distance between the stationary reader and the
code to be read.

7.1 Web-based operator interface
You have the option of configuring and operating the sensor via a web-based
operator interface and using it to display information. The web-based user
interface should be used only for setup and troubleshooting purposes when the
machine is shut down.
We recommend the following browser versions
Starting the operator interface
To start the operator interface, proceed as follows.
In the input field of a standard web browser, enter the IP address of the stationary
reader (192.168.2.2) and press return to confirm.
The following tab opens as the start page: Settings.
Note!
To start the operator interface of the sensor, you need a standard web browser
(e.g., Windows Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox) with Java script activated.

The following four tabs can be found on the left-hand side of the display:
■Settings
■Communication
■Gallery
■Language
Various information is displayed in the central section–depending on which tab is
active.
On the right-hand side, various status information (such as the software/firmware
version, the MAC address, the number of reads, etc.) is displayed, as well as the
last image captured and the decoded information. On the right of the
Pepperl+Fuchs company logo there is a pictorial representation of a status LED.
This status LED lights up green when a device is connected. Otherwise it is red.
Activating live image capture
To activate live image capture, click the Start Live Modebutton on the right-hand
side of the display screen.
The stationary reader starts to capture images. The captured images are
displayed in the results window. The decoded information is displayed beneath it
in a separate window.
Starting single image capture
On the right-hand side of the display screen, click on the button Single image.
Clicking the button triggers a single image capture.
Note!
By viewing the captured images on the operator interface during operation, the
image refresh rate reduces significantly.

Operation
7.1.1 Settings Ta b
The Settings tab enables you to configure various parameters and send
commands to the sensor. In the left display area, you can navigate to the other
tabs Communication, Gallery and Language.
In the center of the screen, the following functions are available in different fields:
Sensor parameters
Settings Explanation
Flash duration This parameter is used to set the duration of the flash at
intervals of 10 µs.
Ga i n This parameter is used to set the electronic brightness gain. A
high value electronically increases the brightness of the
captured image and can improve the readability of the code
considerably in the event of poor ambient conditions.
Parameter set Load from Flash: Use this button to load parameter settings
from the internal memory (Flash EEPROM).
Save to Flash: Use this button to save your current parameter
settings in the internal memory (Flash EEPROM).
Command Send individual commands to the sensor.
Reset counter The trigger counter value can be reset to 0 here.
