The DS6400 Series is an industrial fixed position barcode reader specifically designed for the needs of various AutoID applications in Manufacturing and Logistics applications. The DS6400 is based on the same concept of the DS6300: a complete and modular solution in terms of reading performance, connectivity, ease of use and maintenance. Modularity and flexibility of the DS6400 is based on an innovative mechanical design with the scanner separated in two parts: the reading head and decoder base. As a result, it is possible to always install the scanner in the ideal position, by simply rotating the Head / Base position ("Step-A-Head").
The DS6400 has a built-in linear motor providing a dynamic focus system called FLASH, fully controlled via SW, which covers an impressive reading range of over 2 meters. FLASH is capable of moving the focus position from the minimum to the maximum position, in less than 10 msec. FLASH complements ASTRA technology, based on a multi-laser architecture, which maximizes the real time depth of field. The DS6400 has the same decoder base as the DS6300, with built-in connectivity to Ethernet, Devicenet and Profibus. With the GENIUS program, it's easy to setup the scanner and to perform functions such as remote control and SW updates on any slave scanner of the cluster by simply connecting the Master.
