SETTING THE STANDARDDataMan 7500 Series handheld readers set the industry standard for reading Direct PartMark (DPM) codes for part traceability.Performance Plus RuggednessDPM identification for part traceability demands rugged,self-contained readers that perform consistently on alltypes of marks and parts. The DataMan 7500 Seriesoffers the only readers in industry that read everythingfrom the most challenging DPM marks to the easiestprinted barcodes. And, these readers are designed tohold up to the harshest environments… up to 50 dropsto concrete from two meters. When you add outstandingergonomics to the list of breakthrough features,these readers are the clear choice for the factory floor.Complete producttraceabilityComponent-level IDFinalassembly IDSub-assembly IDMajor assembly IDDPM code identification at every step of a part’s assemblyassures traceability throughout its life.Corded and Cordless VersatilityThe DataMan 7500 Series includes the 7500 cordedand 7550 cordless models. Both models include thepatent-pending UltraLight illumination technology andaward-winning IDMax code reading software.The Dataman 7500 supports USB, keyboard wedge,and RS-232 communications; the 7550 model usesBluetooth communications to connect to the DataManintelligent base station. Both readers offer a highresolutionimage sensor and simple setup interface.The DataMan corded model 7500, and the cordless 7550(shown in its intelligent base station), provide rugged andreliable DPM code reading for all applications.

DPM ID REQUIRES INNOVATIONAdvanced code reading software and innovative illumination allow reading codes, regardlessof marking method, part material, shape, or surface texture.IDMax Reading SoftwareDataMan readers incorporate IDMax , a breakthroughin Data Matrix reading software based upon Cognexpatented PatMax ® technology. IDMax handles a widerange of degradations to the appearance of the code,no matter what the cause, allowing DataMan readers todeliver the industry’s most reliable reading within acompact, easy-to-use handheld reader.Outstanding Performance with Problem 2D CodesPoor FocusModel Image Washed OutUltraLight IlluminationThe UltraLight illumination system allows DataManreaders to optimally illuminate marks of any type on anysurface. Low-angle lighting with quadrant controlprovides the uniform illumination required for dot peenand laser etch marks. The integrated diffuser providessoft illumination required for highly reflective parts suchas electrochemical etched marks on shiny roundsurfaces. Diffuse bright field illumination providesuniform lighting throughout a wide working range,which is ideal for 1D barcode labels and marks locatedon recessed surfaces.Low Contrast Finder Degradation Background ProblemsUltraLight Illumination SystemDark field illumination fordot peen and laser DPMDiffuse off-axis illuminationfor curved surfaces andhighly-reflective surfacesQuadrant control formachined surfacesDiffuse bright fieldillumination for labelsand marks having goodcontrastAll light settings aresoftware controlled

RELIABLE CODE READING FOR MANY INDUSTRIESThis high degree of reliability ensures the economic return required by part traceabilityobjectives.Automotive PartsAutomotive suppliers use the DataMan7500 Series throughout the manufacturingprocess for error proofing and traceability.AerospaceData Matrix codes have been adopted by theAerospace industry to identify and track partsthrough production, as well as through the lifeof the parts.DoDThe DataMan 7500 Series supportsthe DoD and its supply base withUnique Identification (UID) reading.Electrical ComponentsElectronics manufacturers moving from bar code labels to DataMatrix due to space constraints and the need to include more dataon parts use DataMan readers to identify boards and components.Medical Equipment and DevicesData Matrix codes support the initiative of Unique IdentificationMarks (UIM) on medical devices.
