Do not connect the product to a power supply outside the rated power supply 

voltage range or to an AC power supply. Otherwise there is a risk of explosion 

or burnout.

Mistakenly wiring the product may cause the internal circuit to be damaged. 

Wire the input and output circuits by referring to "Input and output circuit 

connection example" in article 6. This product is not equipped with a protection 

circuit for a reversed power supply connection, so there is a risk of damage 

when the power supply connection is reversed. Use extreme caution when 

connecting the power supply.

Avoid parallel wiring of the product's wires in the same conduit or duct with high

voltage lines or power lines (inverter power lines in particular) as this may

cause malfunction or damage due to the effect of induction noise.

If the wires are long and when there is a risk of being affected by power

sources or solenoids, independently wire the product as a general rule. 

Avoid installing or using the product in the following locations as there is a risk

   of malfunction or damage. 

 

 

 

1)  Near induction equipment or heat sources

2)  Locations with many vibrations or shocks

3)  Dusty and dirty locations 

4)  In an atmosphere with hazardous gases such as sulfidizing gas

5)  Locations in direct contact with water, oils, or chemicals

6)  Outdoors

This product is not an explosion-proof product. Confirm that explosion-proof

    capabilities are not required when installing the product.

 

This product is not designed for use in medical equipment, nuclear power,

railways,aircraft, passenger vehicle equipment, or similar applications 

requiring a high degree of reliability and safety. Do not use the product for

these  applications.

When using this product in a system that may impact human life, such as in

the  management of chemicals, take the utmost care with a redundant design

and  safety design so that there is no possibility of impacting human life when

data  is mistaken.

Do not modify , disassemble, or repair this product. There is a risk of serious

ac cidents such as electric shock, damage, fire, malfunction, and other heave

accident.

Do  not directly look at the reading window (transparent section) or expose

any person to it while the LED is illuminated (performing reading operation).

There is a risk of danger to the eyes. 

This product is for general electronic equipment. Do not use it for applications

where there is a direct threat to the body or to human life due to malfunction or

failure.

Always turn off the power supply before wiring, maintaining, and inspecting the 

product. Otherwise there is a risk of electric shock or failure.

personal injury or death. 

 

 

FCC Regulations

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the 

following two conditions:

    (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and 

    (2)  this device must accept any interference received, including interference

          that may cause undesired operation.  

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for 

a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are

designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference 

when 

the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment 

generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed 

and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful 

interference to radio communications.  Operation of this equipment in a 

residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in whitch case the user 

will be required

 to correct the interference at his own expense.

 

 

 ・

The power supply reset time is less than 5 seconds, so use the product 5 seconds 

  

after turning the power on.

 ・

When the load and the unit are connected to different power supplies, always 

  

turn on the unit's power supply first.

 ・

Install the product so that the reading window is not directly exposed to 

  

sunlight or fluorescent light.

Cleaning the reading window

  

If dust, dirt, or water drops gets on the reading window (transparent section)

  

or if it gets scratched, this will affect code reading performance.

  

Periodically inspect the reading window (red transparent section) to see if there

  

is any dust on it, and when you find dust, clean it off.

 ・

To clean the reading window, blow off dust/dirt with an airbrush, and then 

  

gently wipe it off with a soft-tipped item such as a cotton swab.

 ・

Reading performance may drop when the reading window is subject to 

  

moisture, so wipe it off  with a soft cloth to use the product. It may affect the

  

material of the optical section, so do not use chemicals on it.

Cleaning the scanner unit

Wipe off any dirt on the scanner unit with a soft, dry cloth.

 ・

Do not use chemicals. This may alter the case or strip the paint.

 ・

When the dirt is particularly bad, wipe it off with a cloth soaked in a neutral 

  

detergent diluted with water and wrung out thoroughly, and then wipe with a 

  soft, dry

 cloth.

Installing the driver

Using  the USB interface

  To use the USB interface, you must install the dedicated Active USB-COM 

  port drive (virtual COM port driver) on the host computer. For details on the 

  installation procedure, refer to the 

WB2F Userʼs Manual

.

  The manual can be downloaded from the dedicated site on the IDEC 

  website. If using this product in an environment where the IDEC homepage 

  cannot be accessed, please contact IDEC sales representatives.

Note: USB connector is for maintenance. For the RS-232 signals, extend 

the cable with a AWG28 or thicker cable with due consideration the drop 

in the power supply voltage. If the total cable length exceeds 2.8 m, 

this may affect noise resistance.

Note: For the RS-232 interface, connect a shield of cable to ground or 0V 

when the communication performance is not good by the noise environment.

Mounting

The tightening torque for the product mounting screws is 0.4 to 0.5 N

m.

Do not overtighten the mounting screws or hit the product with a hammer or

    the act that requires excessive stress on the root part of the cable (strongly 

    pull or bend, etc.) the protective construction will be damaged.

Do not use the included mounting screws when mounting the product to a

    plate with a thickness greater than 2.3 mm.

Ensure that the screw depth of the mounting screw is 3 to 5 mm.

When mounting with except using the included mounting bracket, the maximum

    mounting hole diameter should be 

φ

3.4mm.

Mount the product so that the barcode or 2D code skew angle is that shown 

    in the following diagram. Reading performance drops drastically if the barcodes

    are face-to-face with the optical axis.
