Troubleshooting an Ethernet Connection
Based on your network configuration, the Setup Tool may not be able to
communicate with the reader and it will not appear in the list of Network
devices .
First check your Ethernet connection with the reader and click Refresh in the
Setup Tool. Next, scan the Enable DHCP code in the Reader Configuration
Codes document available from the Start menu. This might allow the reader to
acquire a suitable IP address from a DHCP server on your subnet.
If the reader still does not appear, you can use either the
Add Device or Force
Network Settings options in the Setup Tool.
If you know the IP address of the reader, use the Add Device option. If you
do not know the IP address, use the Force Network Settings options. Either
method should allow the DataMan 300 series reader to appear in the list of
Network devices so that you can connect to it through the Setup Tool and
your Ethernet connection.
You can also use the RS-232 connection to configure the reader with
parameters that allow it to communicate over your Ethernet network.
Use the Setup Tool Menu Bar
The In1 button on the toolbar creates a virtual rising edge signal on
Input 1. Use the In1 button to activate various actions such as training a
code, optimizing brightness or setting a match string without a physical
input 1 channel.
Each reader can store its current set of runtime parameters to a
configuration (.cfg) file, which contains information such as the enabled
symbologies and how any output data should be formatted.
The same configuration file can be loaded onto multiple readers, as the
file does not contain identification information such as the IP address or
device name of the reader used to create it.
A reader can also generate a Cognex device configuration (.cdc) file,
which stores the set of runtime parameters plus any identification
data, such as the name of the device, its IP address, subnet mask, and
so on. Cognex recommends generating a device configuration file for
each reader to allow you to restore a reader to its operating state with
minimal effort.
Use the
File menu of the Setup Tool to manage .cfg and .cdc files,
export parameters, or to load, save, or train uploaded images.
