Specifications for the Supplemental Window
The IS4100 ScanQuest series was designed for integration into OEM equipment.
The device is designed to function at its maximum performance capabilities as
shipped. If the scanner is integrated into a system that requires a supplemental
window in front of it, its performance will be altered to some degree.
To minimize the effect of adding a supplemental window in front of the scanner
the following recommendations should be followed:
Material
• The window should have a transmission of 95% or greater at 675 nm.
• The window should be optically flat and clear, and free of scratches,
pits, seeds etc.
• This material is available through Metrologic.
Mounting
The window should be placed at an angle of 10 degrees with respect
to the plane of the scanner window (see figure 4 below).
