3.5.1
Control elements
The ICR845-2 is configured application-specifically using the CLV-Setup configuration soft-
ware. The software runs on a PC which must be connected to one of the two data interfaces
(auxiliary interface: serial RS 232 or Ethernet, host interface: serial RS 232/RS 422/485 or
Ethernet) of the ICR845-2.
Chapter 10.4 Installation and operating instructions for the CLV-Setup configuration soft-
ware, Page 136
describes the procedure for installing the PC software "CLV-Setup" and ex-
plains how to use it. Configuration is explained in
Chapter 6 Startup and configuration,
Page 47
.
As an alternative to the CLV-Setup configuration software, command strings are available
upon which the user interface of the CLV-Setup configuration software is based (see also
Chapter 10.5 Configuring the ICR845-2 with command strings, Page 146
.
Start-up as well as diagnosis in case of an error can be carried out via the CLV-Setup con-
figuration software. Some function can also be started using the function key. The ICR845-
2 operates fully automated in normal operation.
3.5.2
Function key on the housing of ICR845-2
With the function key you can start a pre-configurated function without using the CLV-Setup
configuration software. At the moment, only the reading interval can be started. On the de-
vice, the foil key is located nearby the LEDs (
Fig. 3-1, Page 14
).
In the default setting the function key is active. The key can be deactivated with the CLV-
Setup configuration software.
Chapter 6.5 Using the function key, Page 68
describes how to use the key.
3.5.3
Function of the LEDs
General LEDs
Four LEDs indicate the operating status, activity of the illumination LEDs, the reading result
status and data transfer on the serial host interface.
The LEDs are located on the rear of the device toward the bottom (
Fig. 3-1, Page 14
).
Table 3-4
shows the meaning of the LEDs in the different operating modes/functions.
