Troubleshooting
1. The "Read Result" LED default setting:
Good Read) does not light up at the end
of the reading pulse:
– continued –
•
The bar code is tilted excessively with
respect to the scan line.
•
The reading angles at which the bar code
appears to the CLV490 are too large.
•
Bar code in total reflection zone
•
Evaluation criteria for bar code
incorrect.
•
Bar code quality inadequate.

•
Optimize CLV490 alignment (scan line
should strike the bar code at a skew of
approx. 15
°
). Use the "CLV-Setup" pro-
gram to check the quality of the read.
