Setting the Bar Code Parameters Using ’autoConfig’
The parameters of the bar codes which are to be read can be easily set using the function ’autoConfig’.
In order to check the programmed bar codes, the BCL 80 should be connected to a data terminal. The
detection of the desired bar code(s) can be checked on the terminal.
Manual or ’Online’ activation
• The 'autoConfig' function is activated on the MA 10 using DIP switch 2 (see Fig. 7.1 for the location
of the DIP switch).
• The 'autoConfig' function can be activated and deactivated via the serial interface (host or service
interface) using the 'Online' commands 'CA+' (activate) and 'CA-' (deactivate).
Details of 'Online' commands can be found in Chapter 9.
If 'autoConfig' is active, the ERR LED and RDY LED on the MA 10 alternately blink.
Setting parameters
After activating the 'autoConfig' function, the BCL 80 can read from one to eight example labels con-
taining the bar codes which are to be read. The BCL 80 decodes the labels and displays, via the in-
terface, the code type, the number of decoded characters and the character itself.
Number of labels to be decoded
While 'autoConfig' is active, have the BCL 80 read as many labels in row as it will later during a reading
cycle when in normal operation. The number of labels can be set from 'Set Code' in the submenu 'De-
coding' of the setup program. The number of labels is limited to 8 when using the 'autoConfig' function.
Code type and No. of characters of the label to be decoded
The BCL 80 evaluates the number of labels, and at the same time, the code type and number of char-
acters. This corresponds to the programming of the code types in the submenu 'Decoding / Select
Code Type' of the setup program.
Normal state of the MA 10 switched input SE1
The state (high or low) which is present at the switched input SE1 while the 'autoConfig' function is
active is taken as the new normal state for this switched input. This corresponds to the function 'Inver-
sion' in the submenu 'Switched Inputs and Outputs / Switched Input Decoding (S1)' of the setup pro-
gram.
Store parameters
When the 'autoConfig' function is deactivated, the programmed parameters are stored and copied into
the current parameter set.
Before deactivating the 'autoConfig' program, please remove any labels from the scanning area of the
BCL 80 since the new code parameters otherwise will not be stored properly.
