Appendix
Printing Profile bar codes
Profile bar codes are created and printed out via the user interface of CLV-Setup. It is not
necessary to connect a PC to the CLV if the current parameter set of the CLV has been
saved as a configuration file "*.scl" in CLV-Setup.
CLV-Setup creates a minimum set of Profile bar codes using the parameter values in the tab
cards and the default setting of the CLV.
This comprises:
•
A standard profile (all codes types active or all code types disabled)
•
A host interface profile
•
A greater or smaller number of Profile bar codes depending on the difference between
the two above-mentioned profiles and the current setting of the entire parameter
record.
CLV-Setup prints out the bar codes in a defined sequence. The size, position and number
of codes on the page can be set.
1.
Open the configuration file "*.scl" of the current parameter record.
CLV-Setup displays the parameter values of the CLV in the tab cards.
2.
If desired, make any necessary changes to the parameter record.
Save the new parameter record in the configuration file "*.scl" under a new name.

Preprinted Profile bar codes
The enclosed card No. 8 008 085 ("Configuration Profiles for CLV 41x Bar Code Scan-
ners") contains 12 preprinted Profile bar codes which can be used to parameterize tested
settings or to trigger specific functions (e. g. Auto Setup). The individual segments of the card
can be folded in such a way that the CLV only reads the desired Profile bar code. The Profile
