CLV Setup Help
Online help function that provides support for using the “CLV Setup“ program. The help
function contains explanations of the ICR parameters and their valid entries. Can be
launched directly from CLV Setup in an HTML browser such as “Internet Explorer
TM
“.
Code geometry
Length and height dimensions of the code.
Code position (CP value)
Position of the first dark bar in a detected bar code lengthwise the reading window.
Calculated by the ICR in the image memory and can be used, for example, to separate bar
codes with identical data contents. The active evaluation range in the reading window can
be restricted for
Ö
decoding purposes by specifying the maximum and minimum CP values
of max. two areas of interest for the application.
Command strings, commands
ICR user interface - alternative to the “CLV Setup“ program. Basic, yet clearly structured
command language for modifying the ICR parameter sets online. Accesses the ICR
command interpreter directly. Special programming activities are required to use the
command strings from the host. CLV Setup is based on the command strings.
Configuration file
File in the “CLV Setup“ program which archives the entire
Ö
parameter set of the
ICR. Can be printed out in the form of a table.
Data forwarding
Option of forwarding data transmitted by the host transparently to a terminal via the ICR
using an identifier. Data can also be forwarded in the opposite direction. Furthermore, this
function also allows data received on one of the serial interfaces to be output again straight
away on one of the same interfaces (echo). Application: forwarding reading results or
reading pulse commands in pass-through mode, e.g. in a master/slave network.
Data output string
Structured data telegram
Ö
in the reading result output by the ICR on the
Ö
host, CAN or
Ethernet interface (port 2112). The structure of the data string is flexible and can be
adapted to a large extent to the subsequent data processing task. The data output format
of the
Ö
auxiliary interface, on the other hand, cannot be changed.
Decoder, decoding
Code-type-specific evaluation routine for reconstructing the read code in electronic form in
order to decode its data content.
Download
Method of transferring the
Ö
parameter set that was modified with the
Ö
CLV Setup
program offline from the PC to the ICR. CLV Setup either always transfers a complete copy
to the memory (RAM) of the ICR (D
OWNLOAD
TO
CLV) or just the parameter previously
processed using the context menu of the right mouse button (D
OWNLOAD
P
ARAMETER
) or all
parameters of the displayed tab (D

). You can overwrite the
existing parameter set in EEPROM of the ICR by choosing the "Permanent" save option.
