LASER SAFETY
The following information is provided to comply with the rules imposed by international
authorities and refers to the correct use of the DS2100N scanner.
Standard Regulations
This scanner utilizes a low-power laser diode. Although staring directly at the laser beam
momentarily causes no known biological damage, avoid staring at the beam as one would
with any very strong light source, such as the sun. Avoid that the laser beam hits the eye of
an observer, even through reflective surfaces such as mirrors, etc.
This product conforms to the applicable requirements of IEC 60825-1 and complies with 21
CFR 1040.10 except for deviations pursuant to Laser Notice N° 50, date June 24, 2007. The
scanner is classified as a Class 2 laser product according to IEC 60825-1 regulations.
There is a safety device, which allows the laser to be switched on only if the motor is rotating
above the threshold for its correct scanning speed.
The laser beam can be switched off through a software command (see also the Genius™
Help On Line).

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than
those specified herein may result in exposure to hazardous visible laser
light.
