    Fast commissioning / operating principle Further settings Note! With the BCL 338i, the configuration of the device functionality is generally performed via the webConfig tool (see Chapter 9). EtherCAT is only used to set the bus-specific parame- ters for communication.

  • Page 26: Starting The Device

    Starting the device  Connect the +18 … 30VDC supply voltage (typ. +24VDC). The BCL 338i starts up, the PWR and NET LEDs display the operating state. If there is a display, the bar code reading window appears in it.
  • Page 27 The detailed description of the LED states can be found in Chapter 8. If a display is available, the following information appears successively during startup: • Startup • Device designation e.g. BCL 338i SM 102 D • Reading Result If Reading Result is displayed, the device is ready.

  • Page 28: Bar Code Reading

    Modul 0,5 6677889900 Provided your BCL 338i model has a display, the read information appears on this display. The PWR LED goes off briefly and then turns green again. Simultaneously, the read infor- mation is forwarded to the superior system (PLC/PC) via the Ethernet.

  • Page 31: Figure 4.2: Possible Bar Code Orientation

    The BCL 338i 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 338i for the read process during which the bar code reader has time to detect and decode a bar code.

  • Page 36: Line Scanner With Oscillating Mirror

    The oscillating mirror deflects the scan line additionally to both sides across the scan direc- tion at a randomly adjustable oscillation frequency. In this way, the BCL 338i 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 opening angle of the oscillating mirror.

  • Page 39: Heating

    Heating For low-temperature applications to min. -35°C (e.g. in cold storage), the bar code readers of the BCL 338i series can optionally be permanently fitted with a built-in heating and these bar code readers purchased as separate device models. autoReflAct autoReflAct stands for automatic Reflector Activation and permits an activation without additional sensors.

  • Page 40: Reference Codes

    The BCL 338i offers the possibility of storing one or two reference codes. It is possible to store the reference codes via the webConfig tool or via online commands. The BCL 338i can compare read bar codes with one and/or both reference codes and execute user-configurable functions depending on the comparison result.

    In each case, the housing base is the black area in Figure 6.2. The best read results are obtained when: • The BCL 338i 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.

  • Page 71: Avoiding Total Reflection - Line Scanner

    6.3.3 Avoiding total reflection – deflecting mirror scanner For the BCL 338i with deflecting mirror, the laser beam exits at an angle of 105° to the rear housing wall. An angle of incidence of 15° of the laser to the label has already been integrated in the deflecting mirror so that the BCL 338i can be installed parallel to the bar code (rear housing wall).

  • Page 72: Avoiding Total Reflection - Oscillating-Mirror Scanner

    For the BCL 338i 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 338i with oscillating mirror must be inclined upward or downward 20° … 30°!

  • Page 73: Devices With Integrated Heating

    • Mount in such a way that the device is protected from draft and wind; mount additional shields if necessary. Note! When installing the BCL 338i in a protective housing, it must be ensured that the scanning beam can exit the protective housing without obstruction. 6.3.7...
