The current parameter record in the CLV does not change.
The CLV returns to the Reading mode with the decoder parameterized for this purpose.
The "Device Ready" LED lights up.
Repeating the Auto Setup
1.
Click on the R
EADING
MODE
radio button under
DEVICE
MODE
.
The CLV switches to the Reading mode.
2.
Click on A

under D

again.
The CLV starts the Auto Setup.
3.
If Auto Setup is unsuccessful again, check whether the CLV is able to read the bar code
correctly (reading distance, tilt, more than one bar code in the reading area).
Terminating Auto Setup prematurely
It is here not possible to abort Auto Setup.
¾
In order to prevent parameter values in the RAM of the CLV from being overwritten,
move the bar code away from the reading area and wait for the CLV to output an error
message (Auto Setup must not supply valid settings).
Check the determined parameter values in CLV (after permanent saving)
1.
Switch the supply voltage of the connection module (of the CLV) off and on again.
2.
Carry out an upload from the CLV. To do so, click on
in the toolbar.
3.
View the values in the R

tab cards.
Only one code type may be active in the C

CONFIGURATION
tab card.
Note
The CLV does not enter any real values in the parameter record for the parameters "Mini-
mum distance" or "Minimum bar width" as it is not able to determine any absolute dimen-
sions. The values displayed in the R

CONFIGURATION
tab card or the D

dialog box do not, therefore, reflect the actual situation.
Checking the determined read and code configurations
Once Auto Setup has been completed successfully, check the CLV settings as follows:
1.
Click
in the toolbar.
The terminal emulator is then opened. The CLV is in the Reading mode.
2.
Click on the P
ERCENTAGE
EVALUATION
radio button under D
EVICE
MODE
.
The dialog box for prompting the distance configuration is opened.
3.
Click on the relevant distance configuration for reading the bar code.
4.
Confirm the dialog box with "OK".
The CLV starts the percentage evaluation and displays the reading quality of each set
of 100 scans continuously (refer to
Chapter 6.5.2 Percentage evaluation, Page 6-21
5.
Present the application-specific bar code at the teach-in distance (at the minimum and
maximum reading distance if the bar code in the application is in a variable reading
range).
