Transfer process of the
Ö
parameter set, modified in
Ö
SOPAS-ET, from the PC to the
ICR890 System. The SOPAS-ET Configuration Software always transfers the just modified
parameter values in the background (“online“ communication mode) to the working
memory (RAM) of the ICR890 System. Either the just processed parameters (D
OWNLOAD
CHANGED
PARAMETER
TO
DEVICE
) or all parameters on the indicated register tab (D
OWNLOAD
ALL
PARAMETERS
TO
DEVICE
) can be transferred using the right mouse button context menu. The
previous parameter set in the ICR890 System is permanently written onto the EEPROM via
the “permanent“ memory option.
Ethernet interface (Host)
Data interface with transfer rate (10/100 MBps).
The Ethernet interface can be used as an alternative to the Aux interface (port 2111) for
configuration via TCP/IP using the SOPAS-ET Configuration Software or as an alternative to
the host interface for generation of the reading result.
Error messages
Optical
Ö
messages in coded form (4-digit alphanumerical characters) with which the
ICR890 System detects a diagnostic error during the reading operation. The output is
executed via the Aux interface only. The error messages can be displayed by the user in the
SOPAS-ET Configuration Software.
Focus position
Distance of the lens focal point in front of the reading window. The distance determines the
DOF (depth of field) via the ICR890 System lenses, in which the code can be analyzed. The
depth of field depends on the resolution.
Function interfaces
For the switching inputs and outputs of the ICR890 System.
GBit Ethernet interface
Allows rapid image transfer.
Good Read
The ICR890 System successfully recognized the code or the requested number of codes
specified by the configured analysis conditions during the last
Ö
reading pulse.
Header
Data block in reading result of the
Ö
Host/CAN or Ethernet interface. Is the header in the
Ö
data output string for the subsequent code data content. Consists of reading diagnosis
data and/or constants (control characters, letters, digits). In the default setting of the
ICR890 System the “header“ block is empty.
Help input
Special function of the
Ö
Aux interface. Allows the additional manual input of code data for
completion of the reading results sent to the host.
