Operation
6.3 Quick start
A PC does not need to be connected when the CLX is operated with the factory default
settings (this is, however, not the case the first time the CLX with external parameter
memory is switched on, see Chapter 6.3.2 Switching the CLX with external parameter me-
mory connected on for the first time with the factory default settings, Page 6-4 ).
6.3.1 Switching the CLX on for the first time with the factory default settings
1. Connect the CLX to the AMV/S 60 Connection Module using the two cables
no. 2 020 302.
2. Connect the reading pulse sensor (e. g. photoelectric reflex switch) to the "Sensor"
switching input of the CLX via the AMV/S 60 (see Chapter 5.5.7 Connecting the swit-
ching inputs, Page 5-16 ).
3. Switch on the power supply of the AMV/S 60.
The CLX starts. The "Device Ready" LED lights up. The "Result 1" ("Device Ready")
output switches.
CLX with external parameter memory connected:
If an external parameter memory is connected to the CLX, the "Device Ready" LED
blinks for 10 s when the device starts up correctly and then lights up constantly. If the
"Device Ready" and "Read Result" LEDs both blink up constantly, the memory is empty
and the CLX is not ready for operation.
In this case, proceed as described in Chapter 6.3.2 Switching the CLX with external pa-
rameter memory connected on for the first time with the factory default settings,
Page 6-4 .
4. Start the reading pulse: block the light path of the photoelectric switch or close the
switch. The "Laser On" LED lights up. The CLX switches the laser diode on and the scan
line appears as a cross.
5. Present the bar code pattern (
Fig. 6-1
) to the CLX at the reading distance specified in
Table 6-2, Page 6-4 .
6. Align the bar code in such a way that the red scan line is almost at a 90
°
angle to the
bars.
7. End the reading pulse: unblock the light path of the photoelectric switch or open the
switch. The "Laser On" LED is extinguished. The CLX switches the laser diode off. The
CLX confirms that the bar code was read successfully (the "Result" LED lights up for
100 ms). The "Result 2" ("Good Read") output is switched for a duration of 100 ms.
The CLX can now be operated with the factory default settings. The device can be switched
off without the configuration data being lost as no changes have been made to the para-
meter set.
