10.4.2 Control of the decoding
In general, decoding is controlled via one or more of the configurable switching inputs/outputs. For this
purpose, the respective connection to the SW IN/OUT and POWER interfaces must be configured as a
switching input.
Via a switching input, you can:
• Start decoding
• Stop decoding
• Start decoding and then stop decoding after a configurable time period
• Read a reference code
• Start the automatic code type configuration (AutoConfig)
Connect the required control devices (photoelectric sensor, proximity switch, etc.) as described in
Chapter 7 to the BCL 308
i
.
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:
• Via webConfig:
Configuration > Device > Switching inputs/outputs
Advanced decoder control via 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.
NOTE
Alternatively, one can also activate decoding via the online command ’+’ and deactivate it via the
online command ’-’. Further information on the online commands can be found in Chapter 11.
