10.5 Transmitting configuration data
Instead of going through the tedious task of configuring every parameter of the BCL 308
i
individually, you
can also conveniently transfer configuration data.
Configuration data can be transferred between two bar code readers BCL 308
i
as follows
• Storage in a file and transfer using the webConfig tool
10.5.1 Via the webConfig tool
With the webConfig tool, you can store entire configurations of the BCL 308
i
on data carriers and transfer
them from these to the BCL 308
i
.
This storage of configuration data is especially useful if you want to store basic configurations which will
require only minor changes.
In the webConfig tool, you store the configuration data via the buttons in the upper part of the middle
window of all submenus of the
Configuration
main menu.

10.5.2 Replacing a defective BCL 308
i
The MS 308 connector hood, the ME 308… connection hood and the MK 308 terminal hood feature an
integrated parameter memory in which the configuration data is saved as a backup. If a defective BCL 308
i
has to be replaced, proceed as follows:
Disconnect the defective BCL 308
i
from the voltage supply.
Dismount the defective BCL 308
i
and disconnect it from the hoods with integrated connectors/terminal
hoods.
Connect the new BCL 308
i
to the connection hood and remount the unit.
Recommission the new BCL 308
i
(reconnect the voltage supply).
The configuration is now imported from the external parameter memory of the connection hood and the
BCL 308
i
is immediately operational without any further configuration.
