Timeout

The 

Timeout

 parameter defines how much time has to elapse before data processing is

started or stopped.

119

Data Source

Select an interface to be recorded in the 

Data Source

 group.

120

Data processing

The 

Data processing

 tab contains the parameters for defining the two output formats,

as well as for filtering, sorting, and controlling data output.

These parameters are used to define what data is output on the communication inter‐
faces, as well as when, under what conditions, and in what order.

121

Data String Forwarding

This option can be used if you intend to send data from an external device such as a
hand-held scanner to a host 

in addition to

 the reading result. In this case, the data is

not interpreted by the sensor, but is also output at the specified interface. The digital
outputs are 

not controlled

 and the data is not processed according to evaluation condi‐

tions.

Possible destinations are:

Serial aux interface

Serial host interface

Ethernet aux interface

Ethernet host interface

122

Date (YYYY-MM-DD)

The 

Date (YYYY-MM-DD)

 parameter is used to enter the date that the reading device

should apply when setting its device time. Device time synchronization is triggered by
the user via the 

SET DEVICE TIME

 button.

123

Date

If the 

Date

 parameter is activated, a subfolder is created with the creation date.

124

Duration

The 

Duration

 parameter is used to define the time frame for the optical feedback

(

Green feedback spot

).

125

Decoding

The 

Decoding

 parameter defines whether the read operation should be time-optimized

or whether it is more important to adopt an aggressive decoding approach.

FAST

: Fast decoding is recommended if the code is of high quality and it is impor‐

tant to achieve a short decoding time.

AGGRESSIVE

: The Aggressive option should be selected when the decoding time is

less relevant, e.g., when reading a stationary object, but the code is of lower qual‐
ity (e.g., low levels of contrast or when the code contains an error).

BALANCED

: The Balanced option accommodates applications that fall between the

two extremes.
