Configuring With Bar Code Labels

4-14
The edited configuration file is now active. If there are any errors in the
configuration file, the JANUS 2050 generates an error file called JANUS.ERR.
This file lists the line numbers with the incorrect syntax and the reason for the
error. The command SET IM_ERRPATH=E:\ listed in the AUTOEXEC.BAT
specifies that the error file is written to drive E. To view the error file, change to
drive E on the JANUS 2050 and enter the following:
type janus.err
If your edited configuration file contains errors, use the configuration
application to enter the correct option for the configuration parameter that
caused the error.
You can configure the JANUS 2050 by scanning bar code labels listed in this
manual, or by creating your own bar code labels. Creating your own bar code
labels is useful when configuring a number of JANUS 2050s.
You can create bar code labels that contain more than one configuration
command. For example, configuring a JANUS 2050 for User-Defined protocol
(PS0) on COM1 (IS1), with a baud rate of 2400 (IA4), even parity (IB1), 8 data
bits (II8), and 2 stop bits (IC2) can be done with three bar codes. Each bar code
starts with $+ (the change configuration command), followed by the syntax
and option for each parameter.
Configure for COM1, Configure User-Defined Protocol
*$+IS1PS0*
*$+IS1PS0*
2400 Baud, Even Parity, 8 Data Bits, and 2 Stop Bits
*$+IA4IB1II8IC2*
*$+IA4IB1II8IC2*
Activate User-Defined Protocol
*$+PA0*
*$+PA0*
Note: You must enclose parameter options with quotation marks if those options
conflict with reader configuration commands. For example, you may want to set the
postamble to the letters "BV", which happen to be the beep volume command. You can
enter this command by using $+AE"BV". If you leave out the quotation marks
($+ADBV), the JANUS 2050 mistakes the command as setting the preamble (AD) to
no characters, and changing the beep volume command (BV).
