DS4800 – flexible laser scanner for industrial applications

Datalogic is pleased to announce the availability of the new DS4800 compact laser scanner. This new addition extends the current offer for the manufacturing market and provides an extraordinary flexibility in main industrial applications.

DS4800 features an excellent reading performance satisfying all main identification needs of your plant, especially in Shop Floor and Warehousing applications. Smart focus adjusting and DIGITECH™ technology improve reading rate on low contrast bar codes, while ACR4™ reconstruction algorithm improves the reading performance on damaged bar codes and allows an increased maximum tilt angle.

Installation and maintenance are easier than ever thanks to the innovative X-PRESS™ interface. Status and diagnostic information are clearly shown through the 5-LED bar-graph, while multi-function push button enables all relevant activities such as bar code verification (Test mode), automatic code setting (AutoLearn) and self-optimization of reading performance (AutoSetup).

Additionally, DS4800 is easily programmed through the multi-language Genius™ configuration software. Thanks to the wizard approach and graphic add-ons, the scanner set-up is rapidly accomplished.

DS4800 is equipped with the embedded high-speed ID-NET™ communication interface. This technology allows efficient data collection without external multiplexer providing overall cost reduction and simplifying network wiring.

Extended field bus connectivity (Profibus, DeviceNet, Ethernet, etc.) is available through a complete range of modular connection boxes.

The rugged full metal construction, IP65 protection, max operative temperature of 50°C and total immunity against ambient light make DS4800 the suitable product for main industrial applications.

The main features are: 
* Better performance, especially on low-contrast barcodes 
* Single high-performance optics with adjustable focus 
* Innovative X-PRESS™ Human Machine Interface 
* New ID-NET™ High Speed Bus 
* Standardized Genius™ Software Configuration tool

The DS4800 main goals are:
• reduce the number of models and rationalize the mid end of laser offer.
• increase the scanner performance in severe applications (temperature, ambient light, vibrations)
• keep the same footprint as the DS4600A

Solution Overview

• HUGE FLEXIBILITY
Through the smart focus adjustment DS4800 optimizes the performances based on the reading distance. This extends the reading area and improves the overall read rate.

• EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE
Thanks to DIGITECH™ technology, DS4800 provides excellent reading performance on demanding barcodes.
By means of optimized reading recipes, DS4800 improves reading rate on low contrast barcodes while granting excellent performance at high skew angles. Additionally, ACR4™ reconstruction technology increases the max tilt angle and decoding rate of damaged barcodes.

• EASE OF USE
The intuitive X-PRESS™ Human Machine Interface makes installation and maintenance easier than ever thanks to a five LED bar-graph and the multi-function key providing immediate access to relevant functions: Test Mode (for bar code verification), AutoLearn (for automatic code setting) and AutoSetup (for self optimization of reading performance).
DS4800 is easily programmed through the multi-language Genius™ software tool. Thanks to the wizard approach and graphic add-ons, the scanner configuration is rapidly accomplished.

• CONNECTIVITY
DS4800 is equipped with the embedded high-speed ID-NET™ communication interface. ID-NET™ allows efficient data collection without the need of external multiplexer providing overall cost reduction and simplifying network wiring.

Extended fieldbus connectivity is available through a complete range of modular connection boxes.

• INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH
With its rugged construction, IP65 protection class, 50°C max operating temperature and total ambient light immunity, DS4800 is suitable for all main industrial applications.
