Operation Method

1. At power-up, the MT89M sends the Power-Up signals over Buzzer and LED pins as an indication that the MT89M enters Standby Mode and is ready for operation.

2. Once the MT89M triggered by either hardware or software method, MT89M
   will emit a beam of light which is aligned with the sensor’s field of view.

3. The area image sensor captures the image of barcode and produces an analog waveform, which is sampled and analyzed by the decoder firmware running on the MT89M.

4. Upon a successful barcode decoded, the MT89M turns off the illumination
   LEDs, sending the Good Read signals over Buzzer and LED pins and transmitting the decoded data to the host.

Mechanical Dimension

(Unit = mm)

Connector Specification

MT89M is built with a 13-pin pitch 0.3mm FPC connector. The recommended Model No. of 13-pin connector is FH35C-13S-0.3SHW(50)
When the 13-pin to 12-pin FPC cable (shipped with MT89M by default) is used, the recommended Model No. of 12-pin pitch 0.5mm FPC connector on the host side is

FH34SRJ-12S-0.5SH(50), with pin assignment below:

INSTALLATION

• The scan engine is designed specifically for integration into customer’s housing for OEM applications. However, the scan engine’s performance will be adversely affected or permanently damaged when mounted into an unsuitable enclosure.
• Warning: The limited warranty is void if the following recommendations are not adhered to when mounting the scan engine.

Electrostatic Discharge Cautions

All scan engines are shipped in ESD protective packaging due to the sensitive nature of the exposed electrical components.

1. ALWAYS use grounding wrist straps and a grounded work area when unpacking and handling the scan engine.
2. Mount the scan engine in a housing that is designed for ESD protection and stray electric fields.

Installation Recommendations

When securing the scan engine by utilizing the machine screws:

1. Leave sufficient space to accommodate the maximum size of the scan engine.
2. Do not exceed 1kg-cm (0.86 lb-in) of torque when securing the scan engine to the host.
3. Use safe ESD practices when handling and mounting the scan engine.
4. Do not enclose the scan engine with thermal insulation material. Failure of heat dissipation may deteriorate the scan engine’s performance.

Installation Orientation

• Two M1.6 screw holes (max depth 2mm) are available at the bottom of MT89M.
• When the screw holes are facing downwards, MT89M’s appearance should be identical to above picture.

Window Materials

Following are descriptions of three popular window materials:

1. Poly-methyl Methacrylic (PMMA)
2. Allyl Diglycol Carbonate (ADC)
3. Chemically tempered float glass

Cell Cast Acrylic (ASTM: PMMA)

• Cell cast Acrylic, or Poly-methyl Methacrylic is fabricated by casting acrylic between two precision sheet of glass. This material has very good optical quality, but is relatively soft and susceptible to attack by chemicals, mechanical stress and UV light. It is strongly recommended to have acrylic hard-coated with Polysiloxane to provide abrasion resistance and protection from environmental factors. Acrylic can be laser-cut into odd shapes and ultrasonically welded.

Cell Cast ADC, Allyl Diglycol Carbonate (ASTM: ADC)

• Also known as CR-39TM, ADC, a thermal setting plastic widely used for plastic eyeglasses, has excellent chemical and environmental resistance. It also has an inherently moderate surface hardness and therefore does not require hard-coating. This material cannot be ultrasonically welded.

Chemically Tempered Float Glass

• Glass is a hard material which provides excellent scratch and abrasion resistance. However, un-annealed glass is brittle. Increased flexibility strength with minimal optical distortion requires chemical tempering. Glass cannot be ultrasonically welded and is difficult to cut into odd shapes.

Coating

| Both sides to be anti-reflection coated to provide 1% maximum reflectivity from 635 to 690 nanometers at nominal window tilt angle. An anti-reflection coating can reduce the light that is reflected back to the host case. Coatings will comply with the hardness adherence

requirements of MIL-M-13508.

Window Placement

• The distance between window and front of MT89M should not exceed L=0.5mm
• The thickness of the window should not exceed 1mm

Window Size

• The window size should ensure that field of view is not blocked, and the illumination area should not be blocked as well. For the size of window, please refer to above diagram of each optical area.

Window Care

• In the aspect of window, the performance of MT89M will be reduced due to any kind of scratch.
• Thus, reducing the damage of window, there are few things have to be noticed.

1. Avoid touching the window as much as possible.
2. When cleaning the window surface, please use non-abrasive cleaning cloth, and then gently wipe the host window with the cloth that is already sprayed with glass cleaner.
