Profibus Interface
The Profibus interface is used for communication with an Host and allows expanding the
networking and remote diagnostic capabilities of the scanner.
For further details refer to the “Profibus_Fam6k.pdf” document provided as supplementary
documentation.
2.3.6 Power
Supply
The supply voltage of a single scanner must be between 15 and 30 VDC.
Datalogic strongly recommends a supply voltage of minimum 24 VDC when using a
master/slave configuration.
The power consumption of the different DS6500 models is slightly different.
In particular, when connecting several DS6500 readers in a master/slave connection, the
maximum power consumption for each scanner is 15 W. There is a power peak of about
20 W lasting 5..10 seconds caused by the motor starting.
