7 Operation with Barcode Reader
The barcode reader Z720A (as accessory) allows for all information avail-
able in barcode form to be quickly, easily and safely entered into the test
reports. This type of data entry permits time-saving and low-cost acqui-
sition of large amounts of information, e.g. for series measurements of
devices provided with barcodes.
7.1 Connecting the Barcode Reader
➭ Connect the reader to the RS232 interface of the SI module.
An SI LCD window must not be active!
The barcode reader confirms the correct connection with a double
acoustic signal.
7.2 Configuring the Barcode Reader
The barcode reader Z720A is configured for the following barcodes:
CODE 39 / CODE 128 / EAN13 (12 digits) *
The barcode reader is immediately ready for operation when connected
to a SECUTEST... or SECUTEST SI+ test instrument.
For operation with PROFITEST 204, the barcode reader has to be con-
figured with the code indicated in the operating instructions of the bar-
code reader adapter. For these test instruments, only Code 128 is possi-
ble.
If you wish to use other codes for the SECUTEST..., please consult our
Product Support Hotline, see chapter 13, page 26
* Z720A has the appropriate scanning width to be programmed to the EAN 128
barcode.
