Operation
6.
The constants or placeholders for reading diagnosis data can be placed freely before
or after the code contents in the R
EADING
DATA
field. The selected arrangement is the
same for all output code contents.
7.
Perform a download to the ICR. This is done by clicking
in the toolbar.
The D

P
ARAMETER
dialog box is displayed.
8.
Confirm the dialog box by selecting the P
ERMANENT
save option.
The ICR outputs the selected elements in the data output string of the host interface
with the next reading result.
6.5.7
Auxiliary input
Function of the
auxiliary interface
. In this mode, the ICR accepts a code input to the
auxiliary interface (via keyboard or hand scanner with decoder). It sends the code to the
host in a separate data string via its host interface. No Reads can, therefore, be corrected
by transmitting missing codes subsequently.
Chapter 10.7.2 “Auxiliary input via the auxiliary interface“, Page 10-34
describes this
function and the associated procedure in greater detail.
6.5.8
Self-test
After the ICR has been switched on, it performs a self-test before it is initialized with the
parameter set. The test can be called up explicitly at any time via CLV Setup. During the self-
test, the ICR checks that its hardware components are functioning correctly. A final message
via the auxiliary interface provides information on the test result. The ICR does not output a
reading result during the test routine.

The “Device Ready“ LED is extinguished. The ICR cancels the Reading mode and starts
the test routine. After a few seconds, the ICR outputs the encoded test result in the form
of a code number (
).
