Preface

The MaxiScan 2300 VS is an innovative, high performance food retail scanner,

combining unequalled performances with enormous installation flexibility. It has a

unique four-directional sealed optical assembly, allowing it to be turned inside

the fixed scanner housing. This new benchmark for vertical supermarket and

hypermarket scanning ensures an ergonomic and user-friendly implementation

wherever it is installed. The MaxiScan is also one of the flattest scanners

available today, making installation at the check-out even easier.

Two versions of the MaxiScan are available, one unit has RS232C and OCIA

interfaces and the other has IBM RS485 and Keyboard Wedge interfaces. An

auxiliary port for connecting another scanner is standard.

This manual contains three chapters and three appendices. The first chapter

describes the MaxiScan 2300 VS and its general features. The MaxiScan can be

installed on a counter surface or on a flexible stand. Instructions for the

installation are described in the second chapter. Precisely follow the instructions

for the installation of the scanner. Default settings can be changed with the bar

code labels from the Configuration Guide that came with the scanner. The third

chapter describes all possible mounting options. Appendix A shows all

connectors of the scanner. Technical specifications of the MaxiScan 2300 VS

can be found in Appendix B. Refer to Appendix C for troubleshooting if the

scanner is not working properly.

1.1 UNPACKING THE MAXISCAN 2300 VS

Remove the scanner and its accessories from the box and packing material.

Refer to the packing list to make sure you have received all the items ordered.

Visually inspect the scanner and accessories for any evidence of physical

damage. Refer to the figure on page 6 to locate the interface label and make

sure that the scanner interface corresponds with the host system interface.

Immediately contact your supplier if anything appears to be damaged, or if the

supported interface does not correspond with the host system interface.

1.2 SCANNING BAR CODES WITH THE MAXISCAN 2300 VS

The MaxiScan 2300 VS is an omni-directional scanner featuring a 5 directional

scan field with a 20 lines scan pattern. The scanner's scan volume is illustrated

in the figure below. The optimal reading zone lies between 1 and 9 cm from the

scanner window, but bar codes can be read up to 30 cm (11.8 in.) from the

scanner window. The scanner can be used in either fly by or presentation mode.

Scanning a bar code label in fly by mode is very simple: pass the product’s bar

code label along the scanner as illustrated in the figure below.

1.3 SCANNER LABELLING

Two labels are present on the housing of the MaxiScan 2300 VS as indicated in

the figure below. Two labels are also visible through the scanner window. All

labels are attached by the manufacturer and should not be removed.

The scanner’s serial number is found underneath the bar code label as depicted

in the figure above. This official registration number is strictly related to the

device. The supplier may ask for this number when the scanner needs servicing.

Spanish:

El scanner M2300 VS reune las normas de seguridad IEC 825-1 (1993) para un

lasérica directa.

Optical: The use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye ha-

zard. Optical instruments include binoculars, microscopes and magnifying glas-

ses but do not include eye glasses worn by the user.

Radiant Energy: The M2300 VS uses a low-power laser diode operating at

675 nm in an opto-mechanical scanner resulting in less than 0.5 mW peak

output power. Laser light observed at 3,5 cm (1.38 in.) above the window

through a 7 mm (0.28 in.) aperture and averaged over 1000 seconds is less

than 3.9 µW per CDRH Class IIa specification. Do not attempt to remove the

protective housing of the scanner, as unscanned laser light with a peak output

up to 0.7 mW could be accessible inside.

Laser Light Viewer: The scanner window is the only aperture through which

laser light may be observed on this product.

A failure of the scanner motor, while the laser diode continues to emit a laser

beam, may cause emission levels to exceed those for safe operation. The

scanner has safeguards to prevent this occurrence. If, however, a stationary

laser beam is emitted, the failing scanner should be disconnected from its

power source immediately.

Pollux manual deel_1 03-11-2000 10:27 Pagina 8

Adjustments: Do not attempt any adjustments to or alteration of this product.

Do not remove the scanner’s protective housing. There are no user-serviceable

parts inside.

CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures

other than those specified herein may result in hazardous laser light

exposure.

1.4 MAINTAINING THE SCANNER

The MaxiScan 2300 VS scanner requires little maintenance. Only occasional

cleaning of the scanner window is necessary to remove dirt and fingerprints.

Cleaning can be performed during operation with a non-abrasive glass spray

cleaner and a soft lint-free cloth.

1.5 CONTROLLING THE SCANNER FROM THE POS SYSTEM

The MaxiScan 2300 VS can be controlled from the POS system via the RS232C

interface. Controlling is achieved by transmitting the following single byte

commands to the scanner. In the Scantech default setting the following

commands are available (more details upon request):

When the scanner is disabled, the motor of the scanner will stay on until the

scanner goes into sleep mode.

12 Installing the MaxiScan 2300 VS

Depending on the way you want to use the MaxiScan 2300 VS, the scanner can

be installed fixed on a counter surface, sunk into the counter surface or on a

flexible stand.

The Maxiscan can be installed in two different ways, scanner housing

Landscape

or scanner housing

Portrait

(see the illustrations below). Refer to

chapter 3 for the various mounting options of the MaxiScan.

Independent from the installation you can direct the scan pattern in a way that

suits your application most, thanks to the four directional optical assembly. For

turning the optical assembly please refer to the MaxiScan 2300 VS Service

Manual (authorized personnel only).

■ To make the instructions in this manual as clear as possible, the starting

point for all instructions is the landscape scanner housing setup.

IMPORTANT

Pollux manual deel_1 03-11-2000 10:27 Pagina 12

Instructions for installation on a counter surface are given in Section 2.1.

Instructions for installation on the flexible stand are given in Section 2.2.

Due to many POS systems on the market, a large number of communication

cables is available. Make sure that you have the right cable to connect the

scanner to your POS or computer.

2.1 INSTALLING THE SCANNER ON A COUNTER SURFACE

Follow these steps to mount the scanner in a fixed counter surface position:

1. Locate the optimal scanner position on the counter surface. Pay attention to

the product flow, distance to the counter edge and convenience for the

operator.

2. Use the enclosed templates of the vertical mount to mark the places for the

mounting holes at the counter surface and also the hole for the cable supply.

You can also choose to lead the cables away on the counter surface by

removing an insert in the back cover of the scanner.

Note:

- Use template A for installing the scanner housing landscape.

- Use template B for installing the scanner housing portrait.

3. Fasten the vertical mount to the surface with four screws (or four nuts and

bolts) as illustrated in the figure.

Installing the MaxiScan 2300 VS 13

■ The scanner and the host system must be switched off before starting the

installation of the scanner. By following this precaution you prevent any

electrical damage.

■ You are advised to install the scanner in an air circulated place out of direct

sunlight.

4. Locate the small hole at the back cover of the scanner. Remove the back

1. cover by pressing it with a coin as indicated in the figure.

5. Lead the power supply cable and communication cable through the hole in

the counter.

6. Plug the communication cable with the 8 pin modular jack into Data port 1 if

the host system features the RS232C or IBM RS485 interface, or into Data

port 2 if the host system features the OCIA or KBW interface. Plug the other

connector of the cable into the appropriate serial port of your POS or

computer. Connect the Intermec universal power supply unit to the power

supply port. Lead the cables through the scanner as illustrated in the figure

on the next page.
