Entry of the bar code using a handheld reader. Transfer to the CLV via internal or exter-
nal decoder of the device
Fig. 10-27 shows the scheme of the auxiliary input.
The CLV sends the data contents of the bar code that it receives via the terminal interface
to the host in the same format as the other read results on the host interface. Each string
can contain the data from a bar code with a maximum length of 50 characters. The CLV au-
tomatically enters the status ST = 7 if the error status has been enabled for transfer. The
values of the other reading diagnosis data in the data string do not have any significance.
You must switch the operating mode on the interface to "Auxiliary input" so that the CLV can
receive the data contents of the bar code via the terminal interface.
1. Connect the PC to the terminal interface on the CLV using an RS-232 data connection
cable (AMV/S 40: Connect the PC to the internal 9-pin "Service" plug).
