Appendix
Entering a bar code using a terminal/PC keyboard
1.
Connect the terminal /PC with Terminal Emulation program to the auxiliary interface on
the CLX (via AMV/S60).
For the pin assignment, see
Chapter 5.5.6 Connecting the PC,
.
2.
Set the communication parameters and data output format as shown in
.
3.
Enter the data content of the bar code on the keyboard.
The terminal sends the individual characters to the CLX immediately.
Use the backspace key to correct input errors.
4.
Terminate the data content with the control character <CR>.
The CLX then interprets all further characters as a new data string and ignores other
control characters. The data content itself must not contain any control characters.
5.
Once the active reading pulse has ended, the CLX sends the data received from the PC
to the host via the host interface.
Entering bar codes using a handheld scanner with decoder
1.
Connect the handheld scanner with decoder to the auxiliary interface of the CLX (via
AMV/S60).
For the pin assignment,
see
Chapter 5.5.6 Connecting the PC, Page 5-15
2.
Set the data format and communication parameters on the handheld scanner as shown
in
.
3.
Read the bar code with the handheld scanner.
Once the active reading pulse has ended, the CLX sends the data received from the PC
to the host via the host interface.
If you connect a SICK Hand-held Scanner from the IT 38xx/46xx/48xx/58xx series, set the
communication parameters and data output (data + terminator) as shown in
