OptiCode® Smart-Camera Barcode Reader

The OptiCode® Smart-Camera Barcode Reader from InfoSight® is a compact industrial reading system designed for high-speed reading and/or long distance reading of industry standard and custom barcodes.

The reader uses “Smart-Camera” architecture that contains specialized hardware and software for the optimal reading of barcodes.

Benefits
  • Barcode Reading from a distance up to 15m (50ft)
  • Read from Carriers or Cranes
  • Track Material from Casting to Stock to Rolling
  • Configure as Single Camera or Multi-Camera Installation
  • Fixed mount or Hand-held versions available

Major Components of standard OptiCode® Smart Camera System are:

  • High speed barcode reading hardware in FPGA (field programmable gate array)
  • Microprocessor running standard or application specific software
  • RS-170 video input (for cascading multiple readers for connection to a single monitor)
  • One RS-232/RS485 "Host" communications port (for data output, triggering, and configuration)
  • One RS-485 "Local" communications port (for interconnecting multiple readers to work as one, and for I/O expansion)
  • 5V I/O (2 inputs / 3 outputs standard) for triggering, read status, and misc.
  • EEPROM for storage of reader configuration
  • C-Mount Lens Mount (also available for CS-Mount)
