The DX8200 omni-directional laser reader joins Datalogic's state of the art technologies for bar code scanning and a real plug and play approach for omni-directional reading at an unbeatable price/performance ratio. The same technologies featured by the DS8100 - performance leader in this application segment - are employed in the DX8200, making it a powerful solution for omni-directional bar code reading.

The DX8200 is Datalogic's answer to the growing need for affordable standard equipment requiring minimum support for installation and setting. The DX8200 omni directional reading capability is supported by ACR™ technology for maximum reading performance and reliability as well as patented ASTRA™ technology, which does not use external sensors or mechanical focusing systems to extend the system's depth of field with the maximum level of reliability. Packtrack™ also allows maximum conveyor throughput, assuring 100% tracking with a minimum gap between parcels of just 50 mm, and no need for external sensors or requirements for complex system calibration.

A new version of the DX8200 is now available for applications on conveyors. This version, named DX8200 Controller, acts as a Master on a Lonworks bus, with the DS8100 and DX8200 (bus versions) acting as Slaves. There is no need for an external controller such as the SC8000, on the Lonworks bus, as it is embedded into the new DX8200 Controller. An automatic procedure gives the possibility to easily replace the slaves. This new version of the DX8200 offers built-in connectivity to Ethernet and is completely adjustable through the GENIUS™ program.

The industrial design and extensive use of proved technologies make the DX8200 an extremely reliable reader able to assure the best performance in the most demanding conditions and strengthen Datalogic's position as a world leader in the design and manufacturing of omni-directional bar code reading solutions.
