Reading diagnosis
Function of the
terminal interface
. In this mode, the CLV outputs the data contents of all
the bar codes that were read – including those that, according to the evaluation criteria,
were not read properly and were thus incorrect – together with the associated reading
diagnosis data via the terminal interface. The number of bar codes output can, therefore, be
higher than the number of those that were sent via the host interface in the reading result.
In the default setting, this mode is selected for the terminal interface.

In the default setting, the CLV does not output any reading diagnosis data via the host
interface.
If the reading diagnosis is to remain inactive, this can be set via the A

Monitor Host Interface
Function of the
terminal interface
. In this mode, the CLV outputs the data traffic of its host
interface via the terminal interface. Protocol driver handshakes and protocol-specific data,
such as start and stop characters, are suppressed here. Each data string is displayed on a
separate line on the screen. Two monitoring modes are available that differ with regard to
the data output format (

CLV-Setup copies the parameter to the CLV temporarily.
The terminal interface then operates in the choosed "Monitor Host Interface" mode
until the CLV is switched off again.
Note
On good read, the CLV only outputs the number of read bar codes being defined for
