To mount, the cover of the service interface must be unscrewed. Then screw the tube body onto the USB connection on the device and plug the USB memory stick into the connection and close the connector hood with the cover to ensure degree of protection IP 65.

The four freely configurable switching inputs/outputs SWIO 1 … SWIO 4 can be assigned various func- tions and control e.g. activation of the device or external devices, such as a PLC. System, warning and error messages provide assistance in setup/troubleshooting during commissioning and read operation. Leuze electronic GmbH + Co. KG BCL 608...
For low-temperature applications to min. -35°C (e.g. in cold storage), the bar code readers of the BCL 600 series can optionally be permanently fitted with a built-in heating and these bar code readers purchased as separate device models. Leuze electronic GmbH + Co. KG BCL 608...
In this way, the device 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. Leuze electronic GmbH + Co. KG BCL 608...

Thus, from the perspective of the host, the scanner network appears to be just a single bar code reader! For this purpose one multiScan master and one or more multiScan slaves are connected together via Ethernet/PROFINET. Leuze electronic GmbH + Co. KG BCL 608...

Total reflection occurs whenever the laser light of the bar code reader is directly incident on the surface of the bar code at an angle of 90°. The light directly reflected by the bar code may overload the bar code reader and thereby cause non-readings! Leuze electronic GmbH + Co. KG BCL 608...
The optimum alignment of the device is accomplished when the scan line scans the bar code bars almost at a right angle (90°). All reading angles that are possible between the scan line and bar code must be taken account (see figure 6.3). Leuze electronic GmbH + Co. KG BCL 608...

IP 65 is achieved only if the connectors and caps are screwed into place. Alternatively, a param- eter memory in the form of a USB memory stick certified by Leuze electronic GmbH + Co. can be connected to the provided USB service interface. With this Leuze memory stick, degree of protection IP 65 is also ensured.
If, for example, the inverted sensor output is connected to pin 2, and pin 2 of the bar code reader is, at the same time, configured as an output (and not as an input), the switching output malfunctions. Leuze electronic GmbH + Co. KG BCL 608...
