Configure the scanner (Optional)
. DO THIS STEP ONLY IF YOU
KNOW IT IS NECESSARY BECAUSE CONFIGURATION CHANGES
HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE PROGRAM. Usually this step is not
required for the stand-alone configuration because Step 3 resets the BCR
610 to the default configuration. Usually you will go to Step 5.
Configuring and testing the scanner must be executed from the AGILENT
5DX User Interface command window.
From the 5DX User Interface window select SYSTEM > Quit from 5DX.
The stand-alone configuration file should already be set for a Microscan
600 series scanner. However, if it is necessary to change the baud rate or
the number of read heads, then CFGSCNR.EXE will do it. Configurable
parameters are located in:C:\5DX\
Release Root
\CALIB\SCNR.CFG and
are shown in
Figure 5
.

Running CFGSCNR (Optional).
Return to the Master folder. At the Dos
command window prompt, type “cfgscnr 0” (0 is for identifying a single
read head). When CFGSCNR is executed, the current configuration settings
will be displayed to inform the user how the scanner is being programmed.
Figure 6
shows the usage and results.
