Further behaviour of the interrogator when operated by buttons
•
Changing into button operating mode is only possible if no other user is logged onto the
interrogator for changing the parameters via the SOPAS-ET configuration software. If
this is the case, however, the beeper gives a descending melody when trying to change
into the button operating mode. Furthermore, the interrogator remains in reading ope-
ration.
•
In case a user logs onto the interrogator in button operating mode, the interrogator lea-
ves the button operating mode and restarts the reading operation. The beeper confirms
the change with a descending melody.
•
If no function is started in button operating mode or if no button operation can be per-
formed after using a function, the interrogator automatically returns to the reading ope-
ration after 30 seconds. The beeper confirms the change with a descending melody.
•
The interrogator terminates an activated continuous function 5 minutes after start. It
returns to reading operation automatically. The beeper confirms the change with a de-
scending melody.
•
You cannot switch off or turn down the beeper in button operating mode.
4.7.4
Parameter set on the Micro SD memory card (optional)
The interrogator stores configured parameter values in its internal PROM as well as on the
Micro SD memory card (cloning), provided that this card has been inserted into the interro-
gator. If the interrogator needs to be replaced, the memory card enables easy and quick
transfer of the parameter set to the new device (see
chapter 8.4 Replacing an interrogator,
).
Important
In order to avoid data loss, the Micro SD memory card may only be removed and inserted
into the new device after the respective interrogator has been switched off and de-ener-
gized. When inserting the memory card, make sure that the card's notches point to the di-
rection of the two yellow keys.
The memory card is located behind a silver cover attached to the interrogator.

Micro SD memory card for storing the parameter set
Important
To maintain the enclosure rating IP 67, the cover has to be installed and screwed together
tightly. Width across flats WAF 2.5.
As an alternative to the Micro SD memory card in the interrogator, the external, optional pa-
rameter memory module CMC600 in connection module CDB620/CDM420 may also be
used for storing the parameter set. If both the Micro SD memory card and the parameter
memory module CMC600 are available, the interrogator loads the parameter set from
CMC600.
