Fault
Possible cause
Remedy
1. The "Result" LED (default
setting: "Good Read") does
not light up at the end of the
reading pulse.
– The "Result 2" switching
output (default setting:
"Good Read") does not
output a pulse
– The CLV outputs the status
ST = 2 in the read result on
the host interface (if ST is
enabled for the separator;
this is not selected in the
default setting)
•
Read not successful, since
there was no bar code in the
reading area during the
reading pulse
•
Scan line positioned
incorrectly
•
Evaluation range of the scan
line is limited unfavorably (CP
values)
•
Bar code presented at
incorrect reading distance
•
Incorrect focal position
selected in the distance con-
figuration
•
At dynamic focal position
changeover: Trigger source
parameterized incorrectly
•
Synchronize read with pres-
ence of an object in the rea-
ding field (refer to

Reading mode: Reading
pulsing errors, Page 8-7
