Parameters to verify/modify: 
 Operating Mode  Sets the parameters which customize the reader operating mode 
starting from three main modes: 
One Shot: acquires a single image based on the selected value 
for the Acquisition Trigger and Acquisition Trigger Delay. 
Continuous: continuously acquires images with a rate up to the 
maximum allowable frame rate per second for the given sensor 
depending on the decoding time and the Region of Interest 
settings. 
Phase Mode: acquires images during the reading phase 
depending on the selected value for the Acquisition Trigger and 
Acquisition Trigger Delay. The Reading Phase-ON and Reading 
Phase-OFF events mark respectively the beginning and end of 
the reading phase. 
 Calibration  Calibrates the acquisition parameters to maximize the reading 
performance (see par. 8.4.3). 
 Communication  Configures the parameters relative to each serial port regarding 
the transmission, message formatting and string receiving. 
Any change to the VisiSet™ communication port parameters 
(baud rate, data bits, etc.) is effective as soon as the reader is 
disconnected from VisiSet™. 
 Ethernet  Sets the parameters related to the Ethernet interface and to its 
communication channels. 
 Fieldbus  Sets the parameters related to the External Fieldbus interface 
through the CBX500 and to its communication channels. 
 Display  Sets the Display language and Layout of the BM150 Display 
when using the CBX500 connection box. 
 Diagnostics  Enables various diagnostic messages, formatting and actions. 
 Reading System Layout  Allows configuring the device according to the desired layout: 
Standalone, ID-NET™ or Master/Slave RS232 
 Image Processing  Sets the image processing parameters shared by all available 
symbologies. 
 1D & 2D, Postal Codes  Sets the characteristics of the code symbologies to be read. 
 Data Collection  Defines the code-collection parameters and the output message 
format. 
 Digital I/O  Configures the reader input/output parameters. 
 Match Code  Allows setting a user-defined code and relative parameters to 
which the read code will be compared (matched). 
 Miscellaneous  Sets the reader name and the saved image format. 
 Symbol Verification  Sets the parameters relative to the various specifications in the 
Standards which regulate code validation. 
 LEDs And Keypad  Sets the X-PRESS™ LED and Keypad parameters related to their 
selected Functions: Beeper, Green Spot, Setup, Positioning, etc.
