With both arrangements, maintain a clearance between the end of the sensor head and
the code to be read that is suitable for the lens you are using.
Caution: If you have a large code area and the sensor is inclined at a large angle to the
code area and there is only a short distance between the sensor and code area, this
can lead to image distortion and diminished recognition performance.
2
Install the processing unit so that it is easily accessible for the operator.
3
Install the external triggering unit, for example a light barrier.
4
Start setup support on the PG/PC as follows: Start your Web browser (for example the
Internet Explorer). Enter the IP address of the processing unit in the "Address" input box
and press the enter key.
Switch the processing unit to Adjust mode. You then see an image as seen by the sensor
head.
•
Check the trigger signal. by selecting the "Trg. only" check box in the "Read settings"
group of the "Adjust" task. Check whether VS130-2/VS 130-2vcr can read the codes
with the sensor head and ring flash in the current position. If necessary, correct the
trigger point and/or position of the sensor head.
•
If the Exposure is set to Auto V1 and Auto, the shutter speed and brightness are
automatically specified. If your code has special light conditions, set the Exposure to
Manual and specify the shutter speed and brightness.
Caution: If Exposure is set to Auto, the code must remain fully in the image for at least
100 ms.
•
As soon as the text "Successfully finished" appears after "Recognition:", the code has
been successfully decoded. You will see the result of the read in the "Result" box.
For further information on the arrangement, refer to the manual in Sections 1.4 and 1.3.
