Fast commissioning / operating principle
3Fast commissioning / operating principle
Below you will find a short description for the initial commissioning of the BCL 548i. Detailed
explanations for all listed points can be found throughout this technical description.
3.1Mounting the BCL 548i
There are two different types of mounting arrangements for the BCL 548i:
• 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.
3.2Device 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 548i 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 548i and the host system depending
on which interface is used.
• The correct time for data output. The BCL 548i 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 548i 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 548i 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.

3.3Electrical connection BCL 548i
The BCL 548i is equipped with four M12 connectors/sockets which are A- and D-coded.
Figure 3.1:Connections of the BCL 548i
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 7.2.1 and
chapter 7.2.3.
Standalone operation in PROFINET-IO
During stand-alone operation of the BCL 548i, the host interface of the superior system is
connected to HOST/BUS IN. Thus, a star structure (Ethernet structure) is possible.
Network operation in PROFINET-IO
In network operation, the superior system (PC/PLC) is connected to the host interface of
the BCL 548i. With the aid of the "switch" integrated in the BCL 548i, the bus connection
to the next participant, e.g. a BCL 548i, can occur directly via the BUS OUT socket! In addition to the classic "star topology", a "linear topology" is thus also possible

Fast commissioning / operating principle
First, you need to assign its individual device name to the BCL 548i. The PLC must communicate this device name to the participant during the "device naming". Further information
may be found below and in chapter "Step 5 – Configuration of the device name - naming
the device" on page 121.
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 107.
3.5Commissioning the BCL 548i on the PROFINET-IO
Complete the necessary steps for commissioning a Siemens-S7 control as described
below.
Further information regarding the individual commissioning steps is provided in see chapter
10.4 "Configuration steps for a Siemens Simatic S7 control".
3.5.1Preparing the control system

for a consistent data transmission.
Notice!
If an S7 control is used, you need to ensure that Simatic-Manager Version 5.4 + service
pack 5 (V5.4+SP5) or higher is used.
3.5.2Installing the GSD file
For the subsequent configuration of the IO devices, e.g., BCL 548i, the corresponding GSD
file must be loaded first. All data in modules required for operating the BCL 548i is described
in this file. These are input and output data and device parameters for the functioning of the
BCL 548i and the definition of the control and status bits.
Install the GSD file associated with the BCL 548i in the PROFINET-IO Manager of your
control.

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 electronicBCL 548i25
TNT 35/7-24V
Device description
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
With the BCL 548i, configuration is generally performed with the aid of the GSD file.
The BCL 548i 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 548i 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 548i 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 548i 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 548i or external devices, such as a
PLC.
System, warning and error messages provide assistance in setup/troubleshooting during
commissioning and read operation.

4.4Reading techniques
4.4.1Line 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
28BCL 548iLeuze electronic
4.4.2Line 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 548i 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.

4.4.3Omnidirectional 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.

4.5Fieldbus systems
Various product variants of the BCL 500i series are available for connecting to different
fieldbus systems such as PROFIBUS DP, PROFINET-IO and Ethernet.
4.5.1PROFINET-IO
The BCL 548i is designed as a PROFINET-IO device (acc. to IEEE 802.3). It supports a transmission rate of up to 100 Mbit/s (100Base TX/FX), full duplex, as well as auto-negotiation
and auto-crossover.
The functionality of the device is defined via parameter sets which are clustered in modules.
These modules are contained in a GSDML file.
Each BCL 548i is sealed with a unique MAC-ID. This information is used to assign a unique,
plant-specific device name ("NameOfStation") to the device via the "Discovery and Configuration Protocol (DCP)". When configuring a PROFINET-IO system, the assignment of the
device names to the configured IO devices creates a name-based relationship for the participating IO devices ("device naming"). Further information can be found in section "Commissioning and configuration" on page 116.
The BCL 548i features multiple M12 connectors / sockets for the electrical connection of
the supply voltage, the interface and the switching inputs and outputs. Additional information on the electrical connection can be found in chapter 7.
The BCL 548i supports:
• PROFIBUS-IO device functionality based on the PROFIBUS profile for identification
systems
• Modular structure of the IO data
•PROFINET-IO RT (Real Time) communication
• Standard Fast Ethernet (100 Mbit/s) connections (M12 technology)
• Integrated Ethernet switch/ 2 Ethernet ports
• PROFINET-IO Conformance Class B (CC-B)
• I&M support: I&M 0-4
• Diagnostics/alarms

The innovative further development of the BCL 548i with integrated switch functionality
offers the option of connecting multiple bar code readers of type BCL 548i to one another
without direct connection to a switch. In addition to the classic "star topology", a "linear
topology" is thus also possible.

Each participant in this network requires its own unique device name that is assigned by
the PLC during the "device naming". For specific information, please refer to chapter "Step
5 – Configuration of the device name - naming the device" on page 121.
The maximum length of a segment (connection from the hub to the last participant) is limited
to 100m.

4.6Heater
For low-temperature applications to min. -35°C (e.g. in cold storage), the bar code readers
of the BCL 548i series can optionally be permanently fitted with a built-in heating and these
bar code readers purchased as separate device models.
4.7External parameter memory
The optionally available external parameter memory –
based on a USB memory stick (compatible with
version 1.1) – is housed in an external hood with
integrated connectors which cover the USB service
interface when installed (IP 65).
The external parameter memory simplifies the timesaving onsite exchange of a BCL 548i by providing a
copy of the current parameter set of the BCL 548i and
by storing the device name as well. This eliminates the
need to configure the exchanged device manually
and, in particular, a new naming of the device – the
control can immediately access the exchanged
BCL 548i.
The delivery contents of the external parameter memory include the hood with integrated
connectors with unscrewable cover and the USB memory stick.
Figure 4.9:External parameter memory
Notice!
To mount, the cover of the service interface must be unscrewed. Then take the USB memory
stick and plug it into the USB connection on the BCL 548i. Then, take the connector hood
of the USB memory stick and screw this over the plugged-in USB memory stick to the service
interface to close the system and ensure protection class IP 65.

4.8autoReflAct
AutoReflAct stands for Automatic Reflector Activation and permits an activation without
additional sensors. This is achieved by directing the scanner with reduced scanning beam
towards a reflector mounted behind the conveyor path. As long as the scanner is targeted
at the reflector, the reading gate remains closed. If, however, the reflector is blocked by an
object such as a container with a bar code label, the scanner activates the read procedure,
and the label on the container is read. When the path from the scanner to the reflector has
cleared, the read procedure has completed and the scanning beam is reduced and again
directed onto the reflector. The reading gate is closed.
Notice!
You will find a matching reflector in Accessories, and more are available on request.
Device description
Figure 4.10: Reflector arrangement for autoReflAct
The autoReflAct function uses the scanning beam to simulate a photoelectric sensor and
thus permits an activation without additional sensory mechanism.
4.9Reference codes
The BCL 548i offers the possibility of storing one or two reference codes.
It is possible to store the reference codes by means of teach-in (display command), via the
webConfig tool, via online commands or PROFINET-IO.
The BCL 548i can compare read bar codes with one and/or both reference codes and
execute user-configurable functions depending on the comparison result.

Device description
4.10autoConfig
With the autoConfig function, the BCL 548i offers the user who only wishes to simultaneously read one code type (symbology) with one number of digits an extremely simple and
convenient configuration option.
After starting the autoConfig function via the display, switching input or from a superior
control, it is sufficient to position a bar code label with the desired code type and number
of digits in the reading field of the BCL 548i.
Afterward, bar codes with the same code type and number of digits are recognized and
decoded.
Notice!
The settings made via display or webConfig configuration tool push the parameters set in
the PROFINET-IO only temporarily into the background. They are overwritten during integration into the PROFINET-IO or when the parameter enable is deactivated!
Device settings for operating the BCL 548i on the PROFINET-IO are managed and configured exclusively by the PROFINET-IO Controller (PLC). Permanent changes must
be carried out here!

5.2Heating models of the bar code readers
The BCL 548i bar code readers are optionally available as models with integrated heating.
In this case, heating is permanently installed ex works. Self-installation onsite by the user
is not possible!
Features
• Integrated heating (permanently installed)
• Extends the application range of the BCL 548i to -35°C
• Supply voltage 24V DC ±20 %
• BCL 548i enabling through an internal temperature switch
(switch-on delay about 30 min for 24V DC and minimum ambient temperature of -35 °C)
• Necessary conductor cross-section for the voltage supply: at least 0.75 mm²; the use
of ready-made cables is, thus, not possible.
Construction
The heating consists of two parts:
• The front cover heater
• The housing heater
Function
When the 24V DC supply voltage is applied to the BCL 548i, a temperature switch initially
only connects the heating to electrical power (front cover heater and housing heater). During
the heating phase (around 30min), when the inside temperature rises above 15°C, the
temperature switch connects the BCL 548i to the supply voltage. This is followed by the
self test and the changeover to read operation. The "PWR" LED lights up showing overall
readiness for operation.
When the inside temperature reaches approximately 18 °C, another temperature switch
turns the housing heater off and, if necessary, back on again (if the inside temperature drops
below 15°C). This does not interrupt the read operation. The front cover heater remains activated until an inside temperature of 25 °C is reached. At temperatures above this, the front
cover heater switches off and, with a switching hysteresis of 3°C, back on again at an inside
temperature below 22°C.
Electrical connection
The required core cross-section of the connection cable for the voltage supply must be at
least 0.75 mm².
Attention!
The voltage supply must not be looped through from one device to the next.

Power consumption
The energy requirement depends on the model:
• the line scanner with heating typically consumes 40W and a maximum of 50W power.
• the line scanner with oscillating mirror and heating typically consumes 60W and a
maximum of 75W.
These values are based on operation with unconnected switching outputs.

5.5Reading field curves / optical data
Bar code characteristics
Notice!
Please note that 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.
Figure 5.4:The most important characteristics of a bar code
The range in which the bar code can be read by the BCL 548i (the so-called reading field)
depends on the quality of the printed bar code and its dimensions.
Therefore, above all, the module of a bar code is decisive for the size of the reading field.
Notice!
A rule of thumb: The smaller the module of the bar code is, the smaller the maximum reading
distance and reading field width will be.

5.7Reading field curves for heating devices
The reading field curves of the heating devices differ to some extent from the normal reading
curves due to the optics heating and are somewhat reduced in the reading field width as
well as in the reading field height!
• The maximum opening angle for all oscillating and deflection mirror devices
(BCL 548i…100 H) is reduced to ±28° (without heating = ±30°).
• In addition, the maximum swivel range for all oscillating mirror devices
(BCL 548i O…100 H) is reduced to ±12° (without heating = ±20°). The deflection
mirror models (BCL 548i S…100 H) are not affected by this limitation.
• The reading field curves and opening angles are unchanged for all line scanners with
heating (BCL 548i S…102 H).
For details, please refer to the following reading field curves for the heating devices.

6.3Device arrangement
6.3.1Selecting a 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 548i 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 548i and the host system depending
on which interface is used.
• The correct time for data output. The BCL 548i 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 548i 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 548i 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.

6.3.2Avoiding total reflection – Line scanner
The bar code label must be positioned at an angle of inclination greater than ±10° … 15°
from vertical in order to avoid total reflection of the laser beam (see figure 6.5)!
Total reflection occurs whenever the laser light of the bar code reader is directly incident
on the surface of the bar code at an angle of 90°. The light directly reflected by the bar code
may overload the bar code reader and thereby cause non-readings!
Figure 6.5:Total reflection – line scanner
6.3.3Avoiding total reflection – oscillating/deflection-mirror scanner
For the BCL 548i with oscillating/deflection mirror, the laser beam exits at an angle of 90°
to vertical.
For the BCL 548i with deflection mirror, it is also possible to use software to adjust the
direction of the beam by ±10°.
For the BCL 548i with oscillating mirror, the swivel range of ±20° (±12° for devices with
heating) is to be taken into account.
This means that in order to be on the safe side and to avoid total reflection, the BCL 548i
with oscillating/deflection mirror must be inclined upward or downward 20° … 30°!
Notice!
Mount the BCL 548i with oscillating/deflection mirror in such a way that the outlet window
of the bar code reader is parallel to the object. This will result in an angle of inclination of
approx. 25°.

6.3.4Mounting location
When selecting a mounting location, pay attention to:
• Maintaining the required environmental conditions (temperature, humidity).
• Possible soiling of the reading window due to liquids, abrasion by boxes, or packaging
material residues.
• Lowest possible chance of damage to the BCL 548i by mechanical collision or jammed
parts.
• Possible extraneous light (no direct sunlight or sunlight reflected by the bar code).
6.3.5Devices with integrated heating
For devices with integrated heating, also observe the following points:
• Mount the BCL 548i in a way which provides maximum thermal isolation, e.g. using
rubber-bonded metal.
• Mount in such a way that the device is protected from draft and wind; mount additional
shields if necessary.
Notice!
When installing the BCL 548i in a protective housing, it must be ensured that the scanning
beam can exit the protective housing without obstruction.

6.3.6Possible read angles between BCL 548i and bar code
The optimum alignment of the BCL 548i is accomplished when the scan line scans the code
bars almost at a right angle (90°). All read angles that are possible between the scan line
and bar code must be taken account (figure 6.7).

Skew
In order to avoid total reflection, the skew should be greater than 10°
6.4Attaching laser warning sign
Attention Laser!
Follow the safety notices in chapter 2.
It is important that you attach the sticky labels supplied to the device (laser warning signs
and laser emission symbol)! If the signs would be covered due to the installation situation
of the BCL 548i, attach them instead in the immediate vicinity of the BCL 548i in such a
way that it is not necessary to look into the laser beam when reading the notices!
6.5Cleaning
Clean the glass window of the BCL 548i with a soft cloth after mounting. Remove all pack-
aging remains, e.g. carton fibers or Styrofoam balls. In doing so, avoid leaving fingerprints
on the front cover of the BCL 548i.

Switching input / output
The BCL 548i is equipped with four freely programmable, opto-decoupled switching inputs
and outputs SWIO_1 … SWIO_4.
The switching inputs can be used to activate various internal functions of the BCL 548i
(decoding, autoConfig, …). The switching outputs can be used to signal the state of the
BCL 548i and to implement external functions independent of the superior control.
The two switching inputs/outputs SWIO_1 and SWIO_2 are located on the SW IN/OUT M12
socket and are described in chapter 7.2.3. The other two (SWIO_3 and SWIO_4) of the four
freely configurable switching inputs/outputs are located on the PWR M12 connector.
Notice!
In general, configuration of the bar code reader takes place on the PROFINET-IO via the corresponding GSD file. Alternatively, you can temporarily set the respective function as input
or output via the display or with the aid of the webConfig configuration tool for the purpose
of testing the respective functionality. After reconnecting to the PROFINET-IO or after deactivating parameter enabling, the parameter settings set by the PROFINET-IO are again active!

in series to the first BCL 548i, see figure 7.11.
Table 7.3:Pin assignment BUS OUT
For the connection of two BCL 548i, the "KB ET - … - SSA" ready-made cables are pre-
ferred, see table 13.8 "Bus connection cable for the BCL 548i" on page 232.
If you use user-configurable cables, note the following:
Notice!
Ensure adequate shielding. The entire connection cable must be shielded and earthed. The
signal lines must be stranded in pairs.
Use CAT 5 cable for the connection.

The BCL 548i can be operated as a single device (standalone) with individual device name
in a PROFINET-IO star topology. The PLC must communicate this device name to the
participant during the "device naming" (see section "Step 5 – Configuration of the device
name - naming the device" on page 121).
Figure 7.10: PROFINET-IO in a star topology
The innovative further development of the BCL 548i with integrated switch functionality
offers the option of networking multiple bar code readers of type BCL 548i with one another.
In addition to the classic "star topology", a "linear topology" is thus also possible.
This makes wiring the network easy and inexpensive as participants are connected to one
another in parallel.
The maximum length of a segment (connection from one participant to the next) is limited
to 100m.
Electrical connection

Figure 7.11: PROFINET-IO in a line topology
Up to 254 bar code readers can be networked. They must all be located in the same subnet.
To do this, the individual "device name" is assigned to each participating BCL 548i through
"device naming", using the control's configuration tool. Detailed information can be found
in section "Step 5 – Configuration of the device name - naming the device" on page 121.
Information on the necessary configuration steps can be found in chapter 10.

7.3.1PROFINET-IO wiring
A Cat. 5 Ethernet cable should be used for wiring.
For the connection technology transition from M12 to RJ45, a "KDS ET M12 /
RJ 45 W - 4P" adapter is available that lets you connect standard network cables.
If no standard network cables are to be used (e.g. due to lacking IP… protection class), you
can use the "KB ET - … - SA" user-configurable cable on the BCL 548i, see table 13.8 "Bus
connection cable for the BCL 548i" on page 232.
The individual BCL 548i devices in a linear topology are connected with the "KB ET - … -
SSA" cable, see table 13.8 "Bus connection cable for the BCL 548i" on page 232.
For unavailable cable lengths, you can configure your cables yourself. When doing so, make
certain that you connect TD+ on the M 12 connector with RD+ on the RJ-45 connector and
TD- on the M12 connector with RD- on the RJ-45 connector, respectively, etc.
Notice!
Use the recommended connectors / sockets or the ready-made cables (see chapter 13
"Type overview and accessories").

A detailed description of the individual parameters can be found in the description of the
PROFINET-IO GSD modules (see chapter 10.6 "Overview of the project modules").
Attention!
If parameters are changed via the display during bus operation, the BCL 548i is separated
from the PROFINET-IO at the moment parameter enabling is activated via the display.
Parameters set by the PROFINET-IO are moved to the background, and changes to parameters can be made via the display. When parameter enabling is exited, the BCL 548i is automatically reconnected to the PROFINET-IO. Upon connection to the PROFINET-IO, the
BCL 548i receives all parameters from the PROFINET-IO Controller (PLC).
Changes made via the display are overwritten!
Device settings for operating the BCL 548i on the PROFINET-IO are managed and configured exclusively by the PROFINET-IO Controller (PLC).
