1 General Notes
By means of the scanner option the immediate verification of printed
bar codes is possible. Moreover errors such as defective printhead,
transfer ribbons etc. can be avoided.
The bar code scanner is a state-of-the-art device which complies with
the recognized safety-related rules and regulations. Despite this, a
danger to life and limb of the user or third parties could arise and the
bar code scanner or other property could be damaged while operating
the device.
The bar code scanner may only be used while in proper working order
and for the intended purpose. Users must be safe, aware of potential
dangers and must comply with the operating instructions. Faults, in
particular those which affect safety, must be remedied immediately.
1.1 Environmentally-Friendly Disposal
Manufacturers of B2B equipment are obliged to take back and
dispose of old equipment that was manufactured after 13 August
2005. As a principle, this old equipment may not be delivered to
communal collecting points. It may only be organised, used and
disposed of by the manufacturer. Valentin products accordingly
labelled can therefore be returned to Carl Valentin GmbH.
This way, you can be sure your old equipment will be disposed of
correctly.
Carl Valentin GmbH thereby fulfils all obligations regarding timely
disposal of old equipment and facilitates the smooth reselling of these
products. Please understand that we can only take back equipment
that is sent free of carriage charges.
The electronics board of the printing system is equipped with a
battery. This must only be discarded in battery collection containers or
by public waste management authorities.
Further information on the WEEE directive is available on our website
www.carl-valentin.de.

Drop rating
Unit functions normally after multiple 76 cm drops to tile over
concrete
Operating temperature
-20° … 50°C
Above 45°C the laser aimer is disabled. In high temperature
environments the DS457 safeguards the laser from overheating
by monitoring the internal system temperature. For this reason,
if Time Delay to Presentation Idle Mode is set to a high value
and the aiming pattern remains on for an extended period of
time while in presentation mode, the imager may temporarily
shut off the aiming pattern.
Storage temperature
-40° … 70°C
