Mounting and Commissioning

Mount the reader such that the optical surface of the device captures the optimum reading di-

stance to the colored strip (see "Technical Data"). The stability of the mounting and the manner

in which the vehicle is guided ensure that the reader is not operated outside of its depth of focus

range. The colored strip must not leave the maximum reading window for the reader during this

process.

All readers can be adapted to optimally meet specific requirements by means of parameteriza-

tion.

Indicators and Operating Controls

The PGV... reader is equipped with seven indicator LEDs for carrying out visual function

checks and rapid diagnostics. The reader is equipped with two buttons at the back for acti-

vating the alignment aid and parameterization mode.

External Parameterization

In order to parameterize the device externally, the parameterization code is required in the form

of a Data Matrix containing the desired reader parameters. Data Matrix code cards detailing

the step-by-step process for externally parameterizing the device are printed in the operating

instructions for the reader.

The reader can be parameterized only within ten minutes of being switched on. If a key is pres-

sed after ten minutes of the device being switched on, a visual signal is given by the LEDs

(LED1, yellow/LED2, red/LED3, yellow/LED4, yellow/LED5, yellow, flashing for two seconds).

• The switchover from normal mode to parameterization mode is made by pressing button

2 on the back of the reader. To switch the device over, button 2 must be pressed and held

for more than two seconds. LED3 then flashes.

Note: Parameterization mode is exited automatically if the device is inactive for one

minute. In this case, the reader reverts to normal mode and operates without the settings

having been changed.

• Place the parameterization code in the field of vision of the camera module. After the pa-

rameterization code is detected, the green LED2 lights up for one second. In the event of

an invalid parameterization code, LED2 lights up red for two seconds.

• Briefly pressing button 2 will end parameterization mode.
