Appendix
To do so, connect the PC to the terminal interface on the CLV. Check whether all of the
parameter settings used are necessary to configure the CLV for the current reading
application. If necessary, replace the software version in the new device.
If the software version on the new device is more recent than that on the old one, the default
settings in the imported parameter set will include parameters that were not contained in
the old version.
¾
After the parameter record has been uploaded use the CLV-Setup user interface to
check whether the new parameters are relevant for configuring the CLV for the current
reading situation. If necessary, edit the parameters and download the parameter record
again to the CLV. Save the new parameter record as a configuration file in CLV-Setup
and print it out as Profile bar codes to archive it.

10.10.2 Transferring the parameter record by means of a download
You must connect a PC running the "CLV-Setup" software to the replacement device in
order to download the parameter record. The parameter record of the CLV that is to be
replaced must be available as a configuration file in CLV-Setup, otherwise the device must
be parameterized from scratch.
1.
Disconnect the supply voltage of the AMV/S 40 connection module (of the CLV).
2.
Disconnect and remove the CLV cable plug from the AMV/S 40.
3.
Remove the CLV from the retainer.
Before doing so, mark the position and alignment on the retainer or surroundings.
4.
Mount, align, and connect the replacement device.
5.
Connect the PC to the terminal interface on the CLV using an RS 232 data connection
cable (AMV/S 40: Connect the PC to the internal 9-pin "Service" plug).
(refer to
Chapter 5.5.6 Connecting the PC, Page 5-6
)
6.
Switch on the supply voltage of the AMV/S 40.
After the start the CLV confirms the successful self-test with a beeper sound and shortly
afterwards starting of the reading mode is signaled by two consecutive sounds. The
"Device Ready" LED lights up.
7.
Switch on the PC and start Windows.
8.
Start the "CLV-Setup" software.
If the communication parameters on the PC and CLV are identical, CLV-Setup uploads
the parameter record from the CLV and displays the values in the tab cards.
9.
Open the archived parameter record as a configuration file "*.scl" in CLV-Setup and
download it to the CLV.
10. Confirm the dialog box by selecting the T
EMPORARY
storage option.
11. Check whether the CLV reads the bar codes correctly.
Correct the parameter record, if necessary.
12. Finally, download the tested parameter record to the CLV and save it with the
P
ERMANENT
storage option.
The parameter record is transferred permanently to the replacement device.
13. Save the modified parameter record as a new configuration file in CLV-Setup.
Help in cases of problems
If the software version on the replacement device is older than the version on the old device
(e. g. new device is from warehouse stock), the parameter record transferred may contain
parameters or parameter values that cannot be interpreted by the older software. The
