3 Fast commissioning / operating principle
Below you will find a short description for the initial commissioning of the BCL 558i. Detailed
explanations for all listed points can be found throughout this technical description.
3.1 Mounting the BCL 558i
The BCL 558i bar code readers can be mounted in 3 different ways:
• Using two M4x6 screws on the rear of the device or using four M4x6 screws on the
bottom of the device.
• Using a BT 56 mounting device on the two fastening grooves.
3.2 Device arrangement and selection of the mounting location
In order to select the right mounting location, several factors must be considered:
• Size, orientation, and position tolerance of the bar codes on the objects to be
scanned.
• The reading field of the BCL 558i in relation to the bar code module width.
• The resulting minimum and maximum reading distance from the respective reading
field (see chapter 5.5 "Reading field curves / optical data").
• The permissible cable lengths between the BCL 558i and the host system depending
on which interface is used.
• The correct time for data output. The BCL 558i should be positioned in such a way
that, taking into consideration the time required for data processing and the conveyor
belt speed, there is sufficient time to e.g. initiate sorting operations on the basis of the
read data.
• The display and control panel should be very visible and accessible.
• For configuring and commissioning with the webConfig tool, the USB interface should
be easily accessible.
For specific information, please refer to chapter 4.4.
Notice!
The beam exits the BCL 558i as follows for the respective devices:
- line scanner parallel to the housing base
- oscillating mirror and deflection mirror perpendicular to the housing base
The black areas in figure 6.1 are the housing base. The best read results are obtained when:
• The BCL 558i is mounted in such a way that the scanning beam is incident on the bar
code at an angle of inclination greater than ±10° … 15° to vertical.
• The reading distance lies in the middle area of the reading field.
• The bar code labels are of good print quality and have good contrast ratios.
• You do not use high-gloss labels.
• There is no direct sunlight.

Figure 3.1: Connections of the BCL 558i
Voltage supply and switching inputs/outputs
The voltage supply (10 … 30 VDC) is connected at the PWR M12 connector.
Available at both the PWR M12 connector as well as at the SW IN/OUT M12 socket are
four freely programmable switching inputs/outputs for custom adaptation to the respective application. Detailed information on this topic can be found in chapter 7.2.
Standalone operation in Ethernet network
During stand-alone operation of the BCL 558i, the host interface of the superior system is
connected to HOST/BUS IN. Thus, a star structure (Ethernet structure) is possible. Please
be certain to select the correct protocol for the connected components.
Network operation in Ethernet network
In network operation, the superior system (PC/PLC) is connected to the host interface of
the BCL 558i. With the aid of the "switch" integrated in the BCL 558i, the bus connection
to the next participant, e.g. another BCL 558i, can occur directly via the BUS OUT socket!
Notice!
The BCL 558i does not have its own built-in DHCP server. Please make certain that each
participant in the Ethernet has its own unique IP address. This can be set by a DHCP server
in the primary system or through manual address assignment.
14 BCL 558i Leuze electronic
3.4 Starting the device
Connect the supply voltage +10 … 30VDC (typ. +24 VDC); the BCL 558i starts up and
the bar code reading window appears on the display:
As a first step, you need to set the communication parameters of the BCL 558i.
You can make the necessary settings via the display or via the webConfig tool. Provided
here is only a brief description of the settings via the webConfig tool; detailed information
can be found in chapter 10.
ENIP
3.4.1 BCL 558i on EtherNet/IP
Commissioning on the EtherNet/IP is performed according to the following scheme:
1. Address assignment
• automatic via DHCP, BootP or
• manual via webConfig (with a USB connection)
2. Configuration of the participant depending on the version of the control software:
• either with the generic Ethernet module or
• installation of the EDS file
3. Transferring the data to the control
4. Adapting the device parameters via webConfig
5. Use explicit messaging services
Notice!
On delivery, the automatic address assignment via DHCP server is defined as the standard
setting of the BCL 558i and the IP address is set to 0.0.0.0.
The BCL 558i can be configured in the planning tool/control using the EDS file (Electronic
Data Sheet) if the control supports this. PLC software RSLogix 5000 from Rockwell offers
EDS support for EtherNet/IP from software version 20.00 and up.
Without PLC support of the EDS integration, the settings are made via the generic Ethernet
module. In this case, the respective configuration must be entered and adapted manually
for each device. The parameter download from the control to the BCL 558i is performed
during every establishment of connection. Since the parameters are stored centrally in the
control, this helps during device exchange.
By default, parameter enabling is deactivated and you
cannot change any settings. If you wish to carry out the
configuration via the display, you must activate parameter
enabling. Further information can be found in chapter
"Parameter enabling" on page 103.

General information
The integrated fieldbus connectivity = i contained in the bar code readers of the BCL 500i
series facilitates the use of identification systems which function without connector unit or
gateways. The integrated fieldbus interface considerably simplifies handling. The Plug-andPlay concept enables easy networking and very simple commissioning: Directly connect the
respective fieldbus and all configuration is performed with no additional software.
For decoding bar codes, the bar code readers of the BCL 500i series make available the
proven CRT decoder with code fragment technology:
Leuze electronic BCL 558i 21
The proven code fragment technology (CRT) enables bar code readers of the BCL 500i
series to read bar codes with a small bar height, as well as bar codes with a damaged or
soiled print image.
With the aid of the CRT decoder, bar codes can also be read without problem in other
demanding situations, such as with a large tilt angle (azimuth angle or even twist angle).
Figure 4.2: Possible bar code orientation
The BCL 558i can be operated and configured using the integrated webConfig tool via the
USB service interface; alternatively, the bar code readers can be adjusted using configuration commands via the host/service interface.
The BCL 558i needs a suitable activation to start a read process as soon as an object is in
the reading field. This opens a time window ("reading gate") in the BCL 558i for the read
process during which the bar code reader has time to detect and decode a bar code.
In the basic setting, triggering takes place through an external reading cycle signal.
Alternative activation options include online commands via the host interface and the
autoReflAct function.
Through the read operation, the BCL 558i collects additional useful pieces of data for diagnosis which can also be transmitted to the host. The quality of the read operation can be
inspected using the alignment mode which is integrated in the webConfig tool.
A multi-language display with buttons is used to operate the BCL 558i as well as for visualization purposes. Two LEDs provide additional optical information on the current operating
state of the device.
The four freely configurable switching inputs/outputs "SWIO 1 … SWIO 4" can be assigned
various functions and control e.g. activation of the BCL 558i or external devices, such as a
PLC.
System, warning and error messages provide assistance in setup/troubleshooting during
commissioning and read operation.

4.4 Reading techniques
4.4.1 Line scanner (single line)
A line (scan line) scans the label. Due to the opt. opening angle, the reading field width is
dependent on the read distance. Through the movement of the object, the entire bar code
is automatically transported through the scan line.
The integrated code fragment technology permits twisting of the bar code (tilt angle) within
certain limits. These are dependent on the transport speed, the scanning rate of the scanner
and the bar code properties.
Areas of application of the line scanner
The line scanner is used:
• when the bars of the bar code are printed in the conveying direction ('ladder arrangement').
• with bar codes having very short bar lengths.
• when the ladder code is turned out of the vertical position (tilt angle).
• when the scanning distance is large.
Figure 4.4: Deflection principle for the line scanner
24 BCL 558i Leuze electronic
4.4.2 Line scanner with oscillating mirror
The oscillating mirror deflects the scan line additionally to both sides across the scan direction at a randomly adjustable oscillation frequency. In this way, the BCL 558i can also scan
larger areas or spaces for bar codes. The reading field height (and the scan line length useful
for evaluation) depends on the reading distance due to the optical beam width of the oscillating mirror.
Areas of application of the line scanner with oscillating mirror
For line scanners with oscillating mirror, oscillation frequency, start/stop position etc. are
adjustable. It is used:
• when the position of the label is not fixed, e.g. on pallets – various labels can, thus,
be detected at various positions.
• when the bars of the bar code are printed perpendicular to the conveying direction
('picket fence arrangement').
• when reading stationary objects.
• when the bar code is turned out of the horizontal position.
• when the scanning distance is large.
• when a large reading field (reading window) has to be covered.

Leuze electronic BCL 558i 25
TNT 35/7-24V
4.4.3 Omnidirectional reading
In order to read arbitrarily oriented bar codes on an object, at least 2 bar code readers are
necessary. If the bar code is not printed over-square, i.e. bar length > code length, bar code
readers with integrated code fragment technology are necessary.
Figure 4.6: Principle arrangement for omnidirectional reading
26 BCL 558i Leuze electronic
4.5 Fieldbus systems
Various product variants of the BCL 500i series are available for connecting to different
fieldbus systems such as PROFIBUS DP, PROFINET-IO, Ethernet and EtherNet/IP.
4.5.1 EtherNet/IP
The BCL 558i is designed as an EtherNet/IP device (acc. to IEEE 802.3) with a standard
baud rate of 10/100 Mbit. EtherNet/IP makes use of the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP)
as an application layer for the user. The functionality of the device is defined via parameter
sets which are clustered in objects, classes and instances. These are contained in an EDS
file which, depending on the version of the control software, can be used to configure and
integrate the BCL 558i into the system. A fixed MAC ID is assigned to each BCL 558i by the
manufacturer; this ID cannot be changed.
The BCL 558i automatically supports the transmission rates of 10 Mbit/s (10Base T) and
100 Mbit/s (100Base TX), as well as auto-negotiation and auto-crossover.
The electrical connection of the supply voltage, the interface and the switching inputs/
outputs on the BCL 558i is performed via several M12 connectors.
Additional information on the electrical connection can be found in chapter 7.
The BCL 558i supports the following protocols and services:
• EtherNet/IP
•DHCP
•HTTP
•ARP
•PING
• Telnet
• BootP
Notice!
The BCL 558i communicates via the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP).
CIP Safety, CIP Sync and CIP Motion are not supported by the BCL 558i.
Further information on commissioning can be found in chapter 10.
