4 Mounting

You can fasten the CR 100 at the M3 mounting threads on both sides of the device.

4.1 Selecting a mounting location

The size of the bar code module influences the maximum reading distance and the width of the
reading field. Therefore, when selecting a mounting location and/or the bar code label, take into
account the different reading characteristics of the scanner with various bar code modules.

NOTICE

Observe when choosing the mounting location!

 Maintaining the required environmental conditions (temperature, humidity).

 Possible soiling of the reading window due to liquids, abrasion by boxes, or packaging material resi-

dues.

 Lowest possible chance of damage to the scanner by mechanical collision or jammed parts.

 Possible extraneous light influence (no direct sunlight).

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 CR 100 in relation to the bar code module width.

• the CR 100 is designed for reading codes in ladder orientation.

• the resulting minimum and maximum reading distance from the respective reading field; see

figure 12.2.

• alignment of the bar code reader for avoiding reflections.

• distance between CR 100 and host system with respect to the interface.

Mounting

The best read results are obtained when

• the reading distance lies in the middle area of the reading field.

• there is no direct sunlight and extraneous light is avoided.

• the bar code labels are of good print quality and have good contrast ratios.

• you do not use high-gloss labels.

• the bar code is moved past the reading window with a rotational angle of 10° to 15°.

• the red light beam is narrowed down for its respective reading task in order to avoid reflections on

shiny components.

With front beam exit, the beam exit on the CR 100 is nearly vertical to the reading window; with
lateral beam exit, the beam exit is at 13° from vertical. The bar code label must be rotated by
> 10° to avoid a total reflection of the red light beam in the case of glossy labels.

Via the serial interface, you can configure the CR 100 by means of a PC or terminal. For this, you need an
RS 232 connection that establishes the RxD, TxD and GND connections between PC and CR 100.

The RS 232 connection can be established in the following ways:

• Direct connection of the CR 100 connection wires to the PC or terminal via its own connector.

• Connection via an MA-CR adapter circuit board

To simplify the connection of the connection wires to the PC interface, an adapter circuit board (MA­CR) is available for implementing individual wire contacting to SUB-D, 9-pin; see chapter 13.2.

7.3 Setting the communication parameters

You have now commissioned the CR 100. Usually, you will have to configure it before you can use it. Using
the configuration options offered in the
bar code reader can be individually configured according to your application. For information on the
various configuration options, see chapter 6 or refer to the online help.

To operate the CR 100, it is normally sufficient to set code type and code length in accordance with the
bar codes that are to be read. Depending on the application, you can configure the switching input and
switching output according to your requirements.

The setting of code type and code length is usually accomplished by using the
software, see chapter 6.

The various parameter sets are explained in brief to understand what is happening during parameter

7.3.1 Parameter sets

factory default parameter set
This par

ameter set contains the default settings made ex works for all CR 100 parameters. It is perma-

nently stored in the FLASH-ROM of the CR 100.

The parameter set with the factory settings is loaded into the main memory of the CR 100

• the first time the device is commissioned after delivery;

• following the command “Factory Default” in the configuration program (online command ’PC20’);

• if the checksums of the current parameter set are invalid.

Current parameter set
In this parameter set, the current settings for all device parameters are stored. When the CR 100 is i n oper-

ation, the parameter set is stored in the EEPROM of the CR 100.

The current set can be stored:

• by copying a valid parameter set from the host computer to the CR 100;

• by an off-line setup using the

7.3.2 “Service” operating mode

You can connect a PC or a terminal to the CR 100 via the serial interface and configure the CR 100
through this connection; see chapter 5.4 "PC or terminal connection".

Setting the required parameters is most easily carried out in the “Service” operating mode.

The operating mode “Service” provides the following defined operating parameters on the RS 232 inter­face, no matter how the CR 100 is configured for standard operation:

• transmission rate: 9600 baud

• no parity

• 8 data bits

• 1 stop bit

• prefix: STX

• postfix: CR, LF

Activating the service interface
The service interface can be activated by holding a defined bar code label (“Service”, see figure 7.1) in

front of the reading window during power-up (initialization phase).

Figure 7.1: Bar code label “Service”

While the red light is switched on for approx. 1 s after power-up, the “Service” label is to be held up in front
of the bar code reader at a suitable read distance. When the device is in “Service” mode, the status LED
flashes orange.

8 Online commands

8.1 Overview of commands and parameters

Online commands can be used to send commands directly to the device for control and configuration. For
this, the CR 100 has to be connected to a computer (host) via the serial interface, see chapter 7.3.2.

Information about the transmission protocol: see chapter 6.5.4.

Using the “online” commands you can:

• control/decode the reading gate.

• read/write/copy parameters.

• carry out an automatic configuration.

• teach/set a reference code.

• call up error messages.

• call up statistical device information.

• carry out a software reset in order to reinitialize the device.

Syntax
“Online” commands consist of one or two ASCII characters followed by command parameters.
No separation characters may be entered between the command and the command parameter(s). Both

small and capitalized letters can be used.

Description This command is used for simplified mounting and alignment of the CR 100 in static

installation situations. After activating the function with ’JP+’, the scanner continuously
supplies status information to the serial interfaces. With this online command, the scan­ner is set to terminate the decoding after 100 successfully decoded labels and output
the status information. Subsequently, the read process is reactivated automatically.
As status, the output returns the following values:

• scans which contain the valid label information on the basis of 100 scans,

• the decoding result.

These values can be used to determine the decoding quality:

• If the reading quality is high, the red light beam flashes in brief, regular intervals.

• The worse the decoder decodes, the longer the pauses become during which the
red light is switched off.

Parameter ’+’ Starts the adjustment mode.

’-’ Ends the adjustment mode.

Acknowledgment ’xxxxx_yyyyy’

xxxxx “Scans since reading gate release” (scans_with info): Number of scans that

contain valid label information. The maximum value is 100.

yyyyy Bar code information.

8.4 Online commands for the parameter set operations

Definitions

• <BCC type> Type of checksum calculation.
’0’: No checksum
’3’: XOR checksum (mode 3)

• <PS type> Parameter set type
’0’: Current parameter set (data stored non-volatilely in the EEPROM)
’1’: Reserved
’2’: Standard parameter set (not changeable)
’3’: Operating values (data in the RAM, will be lost after reset)

• <Status> Mode of parameter processing
'0': Does not perform a reset following the write operation; no other parameters follow.
'1': Does not perform a reset following the write operation; other parameters follow.
'2': Subsequently performs a reset, no other parameters follow.

• <Start address> Relative address of the parameter within the parameter set

• <Para0L> <Para0H>… <Para122L> <Para122H>:
Parameter-set data of the message. The sequence of the data is arranged identically to the CR 100,
i.e. when a word is transmitted, first the low byte is sent then the high byte. The parameter-set data is
converted for transmission from HEX format to a 2-byte-ASCII format. During the conversion, two
ASCII characters - representing the lower and higher nibbles - are created for each HEX value.
Example:

Online commands

Decimal Hex Transmission

4660 0x1234 '1' '2' '3' '4' = 31h 32h 33h 34h

• Para0H = 31h, Para0L = 32h, Para1H = 33h, Para1L = 34h
Taking into consideration the maximum message length and the remaining command parameters, a
maximum of 123 bytes of parameter data (246 bytes of message data) can be transmitted in a single
operation.
Valid values: '0' … '9', 'A' … 'F'

• <Acknowledgment>:

10 Diagnostics and troubleshooting

Error, warning and status messages of the CR 100 are transmitted via the RS 232 interface.

Troubleshooting
Isolated warnings can be ignored, since the CR 100 will continue to function properly.
Following a serious error, you should reinitialize the CR 100. It will then usually again function properly. If

a hardware problem is present, the CR 100 will not reinitialize.
Frequently occurring warnings and errors can be most easily rectified via the

software / CR 100 DTM .
If you cannot rectify faults and errors with the software, please contact your responsible Leuze electronic

subsidiary or Leuze electronic customer service (see chapter 11).
