Parameter assignment

The reading head can be adapted to specific requirements through parameterization. The
reading head can be parameterized via the interface itself (internal parameterization) or via an
optical parameterization code (external parameterization).
4.3.1

Internal Parameterization Using Parameterization Software

Internal parameterization of the reader via the USB interface must be started within 10 minutes
of the reader being switched on. A time lock disables the reader once this time has elapsed.
The time lock remains inactive during the parameterization process. The time lock disables the
reader only if no parameterization activities take place for more than 10 minutes.
The Vision Configurator software is available for comprehensive, optimal configuration of the
reader. This configuration software is available as a free download from www.pepperl-
fuchs.com. Follow the instructions that appear on your screen during the installation.
If your PC does not have a built-in RS-485 interface, you will need a USB/RS-485 interface
converter ().
Parameterizing the Reader
1. Connect the reader to your PC via the interface converter. Information on how to do this can
be found in the manual for the interface converter.
2. Connect the reader to a suitable power supply.
3. Switch on the power supply.
4. Start the "Vision Configurator" software.
Note!
Additional steps for customizing the installation are described in the Vision Configurator
manual. The Vision Configurator manual can be found online at www.pepperl-fuchs.com.
5. Configure the reader using the "Vision Configurator" software.
6. Transfer the parameter list to the reader.
7. Save the parameterization.
8. Switch off the power supply on the reader.
9. Disconnect the reader from the interface converter and from the power supply.
The reader is parameterized according to your specifications and can be used in your
application.
