Connect the required control devices (photoelectric sensor, proximity switch, etc.) to the device (see
Configure the connected switching inputs according to your requirements. To do this, first set the I/O
mode to Input and then configure the switching behavior.
In webConfig: Configuration -> Device -> Switching inputs/outputs
Or alternatively in the display: Parameter -> Digital SWIO -> Switching input/output 1-4
Advanced decoder control in the webConfig tool
The webConfig tool provides advanced functions, in particular for deactivating decoding. These may be
accessed via the Control submenu of the Configuration main menu. You can:
• activate decoding automatically (delayed)
• stop decoding after a maximum reading gate time
• stop decoding via the completeness mode, if:
• the maximum number of bar codes to be decoded has been decoded
• a positive reference code comparison has taken place.
10.4.3 Control of the switching outputs
By using the switching inputs/outputs of the device, external event-controlled functions can be imple
-
mented without assistance from the superior process control. For this purpose, the respective connection
at the SW IN/OUT and POWER interfaces must be configured as a switching output.
A switching output can be activated:
• at the start/end of the reading gate
• depending on the read result:
• reference code comparison positive/negative
• read result valid/invalid
• depending on the state of the device:
• ready/not ready
• data transmission active/not active
• active/standby
• error/no error
• etc.
Connect the required switching outputs (see chapter 7).
Configure the connected switching outputs according to your requirements. To do this, first set the I/O
mode to Output and then configure the switching behavior.
In webConfig: Configuration -> Device -> Switching inputs/outputs
Or alternatively in the display: Parameter -> Digital SWIO -> Switching input/output 1-4
10.5 Transmitting configuration data
Instead of going through the tedious task of configuring every parameter of the device individually, you can
also conveniently transfer configuration data.
In general, there are two possibilities for transferring configuration data between two bar code readers:
• Storage in a file and transfer using the webConfig tool
• Using the external parameter memory
10.5.1 Via the webConfig tool
With the webConfig tool, you can store entire configurations of the device on data carriers and transfer
them from these to the device.
Alternatively, one can also activate decoding via the online c and deactivate it via the
online command -. For further information on the online commands, see chapter 11 "Online com
