3.4.4 Code configuration
The recorded codes are already decoded by the ID sensors. The results are forwarded to
the MSC800. The following code types can be filtered there:
1D codes (bar codes)
• Codebar
• Code 39
• UPC/EAN family
• 2/5 Interleaved
• Code 93
• Code 128 family
2D codes (only ICR890 system)
• Data Matrix EEC200
• PDF417
• QR code
• MaxiCode
The SOPAS-ET configuration software can be used to select the code types for 1D and 2D
codes:
PROJECT TREE, MSC800, PARAMETERS, 1D CODE, tab CODE TYPES
PROJECT TREE, MSC800, PARAMETERS, 2D CODE, tab CODE TYPES
The selected code types can be individually configured. In each case, there are tabs for
doing this in the SOPAS-ET configuration software.
3.4.5 Read operating modes
Start/stop operation
In start/stop operation, there is only ever one object in the reading field during the reading
process, i.e., all read codes can be clearly assigned to the object. As standard, starting and
stopping of the reading process are controlled by two read cycle sensors at the start and
end of the reading field.
