This chapter describes the functions of the code reader:
• Camera operating modes (see chapter 4.1 "Camera operating modes")
• Reference code comparison (see chapter 4.2 "Reference code comparison")
• Code quality (see chapter 4.3 "Code quality")
• webConfig tool (see chapter 4.4 "Leuze webConfig tool")

4.1 Camera operating modes

The camera operating mode defines how the code reader starts a read process and decodes the codes if a code is located in the read field.
Functions
4.1.1
4.1.2
4.1.3

Single trigger mode

In the "Single trigger mode" camera operating mode, the code reader captures one image and attempts to decode it. Under uniform conditions, this camera operating mode makes fast decoding possible.

Reading gate control

The "Reading gate control" camera operating mode is activated upon shipment from the factory. The read­ing gate control opens a time window for the read process in the code reader – the reading gate. In this time window, the code reader can capture and decode one or more codes.

Burst mode

In the "Burst mode" camera operating mode, the code reader captures multiple images in quick succession after activation by a trigger signal. The maximum number of image acquisitions can be set.
• Decoding occurs following image capture, thereby allowing the codes to be detected more quickly.
• As soon as the decoding result corresponds to the settings, the decoding stops the capture of the re­maining images.

Fig.4.1: "Burst mode" camera operating mode
Leuze electronic DCR 202i 18
Functions
4.1.4
4.1.5

Presentation mode

In the "Presentation mode" camera operating mode, the code reader is in the idle state in a kind of wait mode.
In the event of a change in the image area, e.g., by holding up a code, the code reader captures images with illumination (as previously configured) until a code is read successfully. The code reader then switches back to the wait mode and the illumination switches off after a few seconds.
Reading the same code multiple times
To prevent the same code from being read and output repeatedly in the "Presentation mode" camera oper­ating mode, a delay time can be defined that must elapse before a code can be read again.
The delay time is set or deactivated with the webConfig tool (see chapter 9 "Commissioning – Leuzeelec­tronic webConfig tool").
Configuration > Control > Reread delay
Sensitivity
This function can only be activated in the "Presentation mode" camera operating mode. You can set the sensitivity threshold at which a change in the field of view is to be detected: 0…100.
• 0 = not sensitive
• 100 = sensitive

Continuous mode

In the "Continuous mode" camera operating mode, the code reader operates continuously in process mode. In this mode, image acquisition is started again immediately after an image has been processed. An external trigger signal is not required.
Image frequency
You can limit the maximum number of images per second. A reduction in image frequency is recom­mended for slow applications where the object with the code moves slowly past the code reader. Consider here the decoding time per decoding.
• It is recommended to limit the decoding time.
• It is recommended to deactivate the NOREAD output.

4.2 Reference code comparison

With the reference code comparison, the code reader compares the actual decoding result with a stored reference code – the exact code content is compared.
Options for teaching-in a new reference code:
• webConfig tool: Configuration > Decoder > Reference
• Online command via the host interface
• Signal via a digital switching input
• TEACH function on the control panel of the code reader (not with devices with stainless steel housing)
In the webConfig tool, the exact code content can be entered for comparison.
Regular expressions
As an alternative to the exact code comparison, regular expressions can be used for a partial comparison.
Regular expressions can only be entered via the webConfig tool (see chapter 9 "Commissioning – Leuzeelectronic webConfig tool").
Detailed information on regular expressions can be found on the Internet under Perl Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE) http://www.pcre.org/.
Leuze electronic DCR 202i 19
Functions
• Example1
The code reader is to perform a partial comparison of two characters "42". Any number of characters and content may precede the string "42".
• Comparison string entered in the webConfig tool: 42
• Positive reference code comparison (match): 123425
• Negative reference code comparison (mismatch): 12345
• Example2
The code reader is to perform a partial comparison of two characters "42". Beginning with the string "42", any number of characters and content may follow.
• Comparison string entered in the webConfig tool: ^42
• Positive reference code comparison (match): 42345
• Negative reference code comparison (mismatch): 12345
NOTICE
Using space characters with regular expressions!
Ä When entering regular expressions, note the use of space characters.

4.3 Code quality

Overview
To check the code quality, you can activate the Code quality function. This function determines the code quality for bar codes and 2D-codes in compliance with ISO/IEC15416 and ISO/IEC15415.
NOTICE
Activating the Code quality function increases the decoding time.
The code quality is given as follows: A…F
• A = High quality
• F = Low quality
The following options are available:
• Determination of individual features for bar codes and 2D-codes
• Setting of a minimum quality (= NOMINALMINIMUM)
• Output of each feature via the interface and as a programmable switching output
ISO/IEC15416 mode: Individual features for bar codes
• Overall quality
• Symbol contrast (SC)
• Modulation (MOD)
• Decodability

6.1 Determining the mounting position of the code reader

Mounting
6.1.1

Selecting a mounting location

NOTICE
The size of the code module influences the maximum reading distance and the width of the reading field. Therefore, when selecting a mounting location and/or the suitable code label, take into account the different reading characteristics of the code reader with various code modules.
NOTICE
Observe when choosing the mounting location!
Ä Make certain that the required environmental conditions (humidity, temperature) are main-
tained.
Ä Avoid possible soiling of the reading window due to liquids, abrasion by boxes, or packaging
material residues.
Ä Ensure the lowest possible chance of damage to the code reader through mechanical colli-
sion or jammed parts.
Ä Avoid possible ambient light influence (no direct sunlight).
Take the following factors into account when selecting the correct mounting location:
• Size, orientation, and position tolerance of the bar codes or Data Matrix codes on the objects to be scanned.
• The reading distance resulting from the code size and code type (see chapter 6.1.3 "Determining the reading distance").
• Time of data output.
Position the device 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 permissible line lengths between code reader and host system depending on which interface is used.
• Visibility of the control panel and access to the control buttons.
• No direct sunlight and/or no strong ambient light on the code that is to be read.
