Aligning and testing auxiliary bar code readers
About this topic
This topic describes the procedure for testing auxiliary bar code
readers. If a device has a bar code reader, you should make sure that it is
functioning and correctly aligned before starting runs.
Note: Auxiliary bar code readers are set up in the Device Manager.
Laser warnings
!! INJURY HAZARD !! Class II laser hazard. Looking directly at
the laser light might seriously damage your eyes.
!! INJURY HAZARD !!
Do not disassemble bar code reader sensor
heads. Laser emission from the reader is not automatically stopped
if the sensor head is disassembled.
!! INJURY HAZARD !!
Unless following a procedure in a
Velocity11 user guide, do not touch the white TEST button on the
side of the bar code reader sensor head. This button turns on the
laser creating the possibility of a long exposure to the light.
Procedure To align and test a bar code reader:
1. Place a plate labeled with a bar code on the plate pad that has the
reader you want to test.
2. Press and hold the white button labelled TEST on the side of the
reader for about 4 seconds.
When you release the button the green light next to the label LASER
ON should remain on.
3. Adjust the reader, if needed, to have as many laser lines crossing the
bar code as possible.
4. In VWorks, select
Tools > Test bar code reader
.
5. If you have more than one auxiliary bar coder reader, select the
appropriate one from the list.
6. Click Test .
The bar code appears in the bottom of the dialog box followed by
the percentage read quality. Adjust the bar code reader until the
percentage is as high as possible (usually about 50%).
7. Press the test button again to turn the laser off.
