Step 1: Connect the reader and PC using an Ethernet cable
Connect the reader directly to your PC/programming device over an Ethernet cable.
Step 2: Switch on the optical reader
Disconnect the power supply of the optical reader. The optical reader is supplied with power
either via a connected CM cable or via the Power IO RS232 cable or PoE cable. You can
find more detailed information on the connection in the section "Connecting the power supply
(Page 77)".
Note that a self-test is performed each time the optical reader is started. The self-test is
indicated by the power LED flashing and lasts from a few seconds to 2 minutes. Once the
test is completed, the power LED lights up in constant green and the optical reader is ready.
