Operation
The selected reading mode depends on the number of objects that are simultanously in the
reading field of the CLV during each reading interval. This is independent of the number of
bar codes on the actual object.
shows an overview of the configurations and ap-
plications.
A. CLV in stand-alone configuration
A1. Start/Stop mode
•
One object
in the reading field per reading interval, reading on one side
Possible reading triggers:
•
One external sensor (e. g. photoelectric reflex switch)
•
Two external sensors
•
Command strings
