Transferring Optional Licenses; Installing A License - Siemens SIMATIC MV500 Operating Instructions Manual

To align and configure the reader, follow these steps:
1. Position the optical reader so that the code to be read appears in the center of the image
and is focused sharply.
2. Click the "Full program" button to automatically generate a basic configuration of all relevant
parameters for simple reading tasks.
If necessary, you can also restart individual steps in the "Auto-setup" group, or you can set
individual parameters manually in the WBM.
Note
Automatic exposure
If the parameter "Exposure = Auto" is set, the code must be completely in the image after
the triggering until the automatic exposure is completed (approximate value: 50 ms).
3. Check the read result by enabling the "Formation of result" parameter in the "Result view"
group ("Application > Program").
4. Save the settings using the "Save program" or "Save program as" button.
Result
The optical reader has been commissioned successfully. Then you can read codes for your
application, make special settings and save them under individual programs.
