Ethernet Interface Operation
An Ethernet interface will be used for the transmission of the profile data. The recommended procedure
for data readout is described in the programming example. For a normal operation of the scanner it is not
necessary to send initialization data to the scanner. The electronics in the head of the scanner will store
all settings automatically in order to provide the optimal profile. Only in cases where the object has a very
strong color / reflectivity variation surface is it useful to activate the AGC function, as described in the
register of functions.
The values in this description that are represented in hexadecimal format will be represented in C++
format. Therefore 0x23 will be the hexadecimal value 23.

Changing the IP-address
The AP820 scanners have a
default
IP-address
, as well as a
working
IP-address. See the
table in section 6.1 for details. Changes to the
working
IP-address will be saved
permanently.
The default IP-address will be activated by the
RESET IP
button.
The default IP-address is fixed and cannot be changed by the user.
Another working IP-address can be set through the Web-Server. The procedure is
explained in section 10.1.
