Setting the communication parameters
You have now commissioned the device. Usually, you will have to configure it before you can use it. Using
the configuration options offered in the
Sensor Studio
or by means of the device DTM, the device can be
individually configured according to your application. For information on the various configuration options,
see chapter 6 "Configuration and diagnostics software - Sensor Studio" or refer to the online help.
It is normally sufficient to set the code type and code length in accordance with the 1D or 2D codes that are
to be read in order to be able to operate the device.
The setting of code type and code length is usually accomplished by using the
Sensor Studio
configuration
software (see chapter 6 "Configuration and diagnostics software - Sensor Studio").
