Use the Setup Tool Menu Bar

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: 

File Menu

Open Configuration

Open a saved .cfg configuration file. 

Save Configuration

Create a .cfg configuration file of current runtime 

parameters. 

Print Configuration Code

Generate a programming codes sheet 

representing your reader’s configuration.

Restore Device

Load a saved device configuration .cdc file, 

with runtime parameters plus device-specific 

information for a particular DataMan device. 

Backup Device

Create a device configuration .cdc file for a 

specific reader. 

Save Image

Save the latest acquired image with .jpg file 

format.

Use the 

Edit

 menu for standard Cut, Copy and Paste operations. 

Use the 

View

 menu to view reader information (serial number, firmware 

version, and so on) and to enable and disable various elements of the 

Setup Tool, and the 

Tasks

 menu to switch between various Setup Tool 

options. 
Use the 

System

 menu to manage the current settings on the reader 

and to upgrade the features it currently supports: 

System Menu

Save Settings

Save the current parameters to non-volatile 

memory, which allows the reader to restore 

these settings each time you reboot it.

Reset Configuration

Reset all configuration parameters in RAM 

(volatile memory) to the default settings 

except for communication settings.

Update Firmware

Update the reader software.

Upload Feature Key

Unlock additional features available in the 

reader software if you have the right key.

Use the 

Help

 menu to display Setup Tool version information. 

NOTE 

that the Setup Tool does not allow you to update firmware if 

the battery is less than 30% charged. It is therefore recommended to 

place your device on the base station for charging before you update 

firmware.
