Setting the Focus Position

DataMan 260 can operate in one of three distance ranges. Follow the steps below to set the focus position.

  1. Remove the screws and the front cover.

  2. Using a flathead screwdriver, set the focus position from the front. Always turn clockwise to focus to a larger distance and counterclockwise to focus to a shorter distance.

    Note: If an optical filter has been mounted, first disconnect the DataMan 260 reader from power and remove the illumination module with the filter before adjusting the focus.
  3. Remount the front cover. Observing the tightening sequence below, tighten all four screws to 9 Ncm using a torque wrench.

    Note: If you use an optical filter and the illumination was removed, remount the illumination module first and then remount the front cover.
    Note: The rib in the front cover must be oriented to the top side.
