Installation
1.
The depths of field of the CLX for the bar code resolution in question is shown in the
Chapter 10.2.2 Reading performance data Compact OMNI Scanner,
. Find and note suitable focus positions for overlapping reading ranges.
2.
Mount distance sensors (e. g. photoelectric reflex switches) one above the other in a
row at the mounting location to measure the object distance (see also assignment
). It is advisable to mount these distance sensors opposite the
direction of motion of the conveyor belt at approx. 100 mm in front of the reading pulse
sensor.
3.
Connect the distance sensors to the "IN 0 ... IN 4" switching inputs on the CLX via the
AMV/S 60 Connection Module (see
Chapter 5.5.7 Connecting the switching inputs,

As described in
Chapter 4.3.2 Adjusting the CLX, Page 4-6
, choose the standard de-
coder and start Percentage Evaluation mode temporarily.
6.
Check the reading quality in all distance configurations while the conveyor bel stationary.
7.
Then check the distance detection function in Reading mode under realistic conditions.
To do so, monitor the reading result in the Terminal Emulator as described in
Chapter 4.4.2 Mounting the external reading pulse sensor, Page 4-8
Default: Focus position F 1 up to F 8 = 1 200 mm.
Note
The CLX can switch between a maximum of 8 distance ranges for slow search runs using
the integrated timer reversal points.
The CLX can be switched between a maximum of 8 distance ranges synchronously to the
reading process using command strings.

Dismantling the device
1.
Switch off the power supply to the AMV/S 60 Connection Module.
2.
Undo the screws for the cable connections on the CLX and disconnect the cables.
With mounted external parameter memory (optional):
Undo both screws and remove the cover.
3.
Unscrew the CLX from the mounting device.
When removing the device from service for the last time, please dispose of it in an
