INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

  1. Physically mount the Blade reader.
  2. Make the necessary electrical connections.
  3. Confi gure the reader using the X-PRESS interface (simple confi gura-tion) or the DL.CODE so ware confi guration program (complete con-fi guration).

HMI X-PRESS™ INTERFACE
In normal operating mode the colors and meaning of the fi ve LEDs are illu- strated in the following table:

READY (green) indicates the device is ready to operate.
BACKUP (green) indicates that a valid Backup is present on the SD card.
TRIGGER (yellow) indicates the status of the reading phase.
COM (yellow) indicates active communication.
STATUS (red) blinks toghether with Ready led to indicate an active dia-

gnostic message.

During the reader startup (reset or restart phase), all the LEDs blink for one second.

The single push button gives immediate access to the following relevant functions:

  • Aim sets the device in continuous reading mode, with all code symbologies enabled, in order to easily check out were the reading area is, and correctly aim the reader.
  • Test Mode with bar graph visualization to check static reading performance.
  • Learn to self-detect and auto-confi gure for reading an unknown barcode (by type and length). Only one symbology type can be saved using this method. Performing Autolearn on a second symbology will overwrite the fi rst one.
  • Init to forcibly formatting the SD Card possibly inserted, and execute a backup on it.
