Configuration and diagnostics software - Sensor Studio

Leuze electronic GmbH + Co. KG

BCL 8

Configuration and diagnostics software - Sensor Studio

The

Sensor Studio

configuration software provides a graphical user interface for operation, configuration

and diagnosis of the device via the RS 232 service interface.
A device that is not connected to the PC can be configured offline.
Configurations can be saved and reopened as projects for transferring back to the device at a later time.

The

Sensor Studio

configuration software is designed according to the FDT/DTM concept:

• You make the individual configuration settings for the bar code reader in the Device Type Manager

(DTM).

• The individual DTM configurations of a project can be called up via the frame application of the Field

Device Tool (FDT).

• Communication DTM for bar code readers:

LeCommInterface

• Device DTM for BCL 8 bar code reader

Procedure for the installation of the software and hardware:



Install the

Sensor Studio

configuration software on the PC. Install the communication and device DTM.



Communication and device DTMs are included in the

LeAnalysisCollectionSetup

installation package.



Create the device DTM for BCL 8 in the project tree of the

Sensor Studio

FDT frame.



Connect the bar code reader to the PC (see chapter "Connecting").



Activate service interface on bar code reader (see chapter "Activate service interface").

9.1
