The Bar Code Reader is an optional accessory for the PTT. It is designed for users that want the ability to scan Bar
Codes on Tools and start Tool Tests automatically. This option reduces set-up time for users with a large number of Tool
Tests stored in the PTT. The Bar Code Reader is powered by the PTT so no additional power source is required. This
feature is designed to use a specific bar code reader, which is modified to operate with the PTT.
The PTT is designed with an expansion port, which is accessed by a "punch-out" on the back of the unit. This allows
users to easily connect to a PLC for access to GO or NO-GO signals and similar applications.
Note:
Starting April 2007, PTT models can be used with this Bar Code Reader. The expansion port on the back of the
PTT allows a Bar Code reader to be connected to the PTT.
Mountz PTT units with serial numbers that start with digits "07" and later feature a new firmware and hardware. Only
models with serial numbers 07-01-001 or later can operate with the Bar Code Reader of Multiplexer. Prior PTT versions
cannot support the Bar Code Reader and Multiplexer. Firmware and revision data can be seen on initial power on of unit.
Customers with older PTT versions can send their unit to our service department and pay for it to be upgraded to oper-
ate with the Bar Code Reader.

Operation with a Bar
Code Reader
The Bar Code Reader is
connected, using the sup-
plied cable, to the access
port on the back side of
the PTT analyzer.
This feature is designed to
be a supplement to the
Tool Tests used with the
Analyzer. The user must
enter a Test Name, the
Sensor Model Required,
and a Tool Serial Number.
1. The Test Name can be anything but is recommended to keep it short due to limited space on the Analyzer Display.
2. The Sensor Model is the transducer required for the test, it must be entered exactly as displayed on the Analyzer
Display when it is connected or it will not be recognized as the correct Sensor.
3. The Tool Serial Number is entered as an alpha numeric value. This value is printed below the bar code, which would
be affixed to the Tool being tested.
Shown on next page is an example Tool Test Screen. After entering the required data the Test would be sent to the
Analyzer using the Send button on the right hand side of the screen. The Tool Test should also be saved on the PC for
future reference.
