Operation
6.4Configuration (parameterizing)
The CLV is configured locally to suit the local reading situation. This ensures that the reading,
evaluation and output properties can be parameterized as required. The initial base is the
factory default setting or an application-specific parameter record already created for the
CLV.
The CLV supports four different configuration methods:
•
Configuration by means of the "CLV-Setup" PC software and the CLV assistant
(parameter values are set via the serial interface)
•
Configuration by means of Auto Setup
(reading and code configurations for one bar code are adapted automatically via the
optical interface (reading window))
(refer to
Chapter 6.4.4 Configuring the CLV with Auto Setup, Page 6-14
•
Configuration by means of Profile bar codes
(parameter values are set via the optical interface (reading window))
Chapter 10.5 Configuring the CLV by means of Profile bar codes, Page 10-28
•
Configuration by means of command strings
(parameter values are set via the serial interface)
(refer to
Chapter 10.5.2 Profile progamming, Page 10-30
The CLV does not output any read results in parameterization mode with the exception of
Auto Setup.
6.4.1
Configuring the CLV by means of the CLV-Setup user interface
In order to be able to use the "CLV-Setup" software, a PC has to be connected and the soft-
ware installed on it. Connection of the PC to the CLV is described in
ting the CAN interface, Page 5-6
. Installing and starting the "CLV-Setup" software as well the
handling of the user interface are described in the Appendix (
operating the "CLV-Setup" PC software, Page 10-20
).
Transferring a parameter record between CLV-Setup and the CLV
CLV-Setup runs in
offline
mode while the CLV is being parameterized. In order to be able to
modify the current parameter record of the CLV, this first has to be loaded to CLV-Setup
