Additional settings for the BCL 500
After the basic configuration of the operating mode and the communication parameters, you
need to carry out further settings:
• Decoding and processing the read data
• Control of the decoding
• Control of the switching outputs
10.3.1 Decoding and processing the read data
The BCL 500
• Setting the number of labels to be decoded for each reading gate (0 ... 64). This is
done via the Max. no. of labels parameter.
• Definition of up to 8 different code types (4 different types if configured via the dis-
play). Labels that match one of the defined code types are decoded. Further parame-
ters can be set for each code type:
•
The code type (symbology)
•
The Number of digits: either up to 5 different numbers of digits (e.g., 10, 12, 16,
20, 24), or a range (Interval mode) and up to three additional numbers of digits
(e.g., 2 ... 10, 12, 16, 26)
•
The Reading reliability: the set value specifies how many times a label must
be read and decoded with the same result before the result is accepted as valid.
•
Activation of the code fragment technology (CRT, in the webConfig tool only)
•
Additional code type specific settings (in the webConfig tool only)
•
Check digit method used for decoding as well as the type of Check digit out-
put for the read result. The two possibilities for the latter are Standard (corre-
sponds to the standard for the selected code type/symbology) and not Standard.
Define at least one code type with the desired settings.
• Via webConfig:
Configuration -> Decoder
• Or, alternatively, via the display
Parameter -> Decoder table
Data processing via the webConfig tool
In the Data and Output submenus of the Configuration main menu, the webConfig tool
provides extensive data processing options to adapt the functionality of the

• Data filtering and segmentation in the Data submenu:
•
Data filtering according to characteristics for handling identical barcode informa-
tion
•
Data segmentation for differentiating between identifier and content of the read
data
•
Data filtering according to content and/or identifier in order to suppress the output
of barcodes with specific content/identifiers
•
Completeness inspection of the read data
