11.1 Overview of commands and parameters
Online commands can be used to send commands directly to the device for control and
configuration. For this, the BCL 8 has to be connected to computer (host) via the serial inter-
face.
For information on the transmission protocol, please see chapter 7.3.2.
Using the "online" commands you can:
• control/decode the reading gate.
• read/write/copy parameters.
• carry out an automatic configuration.
• teach/set a reference code.
• call up error messages.
• call up statistical device information.
• carry out a software reset in order to reinitialize the device.
Syntax
"Online" commands consist of one or two ASCII characters followed by command parame-
ters.
No separation characters may be entered between the command and the command param-
eter(s). Both small and capitalized letters can be used.
Example:
Command ’CA’: autoConfig function
Parameter ’+’: Activation
Transmitted is: ’CA+’
Notation
Commands, command parameters and returned data are enclosed between single quota-
tion marks ’ ’ in the text of this manual.
Most online commands are acknowledged by the BCL 8 and any requested data returned.
For commands that are not acknowledged, command execution can be observed or moni-
tored directly on the device.
