Setup Pressing the Setup button starts the reading process for testing the configuration. This in-
volves images being taken in free-running mode and displayed in the main view.
Changes to the configuration (e.g., image settings or code configuration) or the position of
the LECTOR®620 (e.g., reading distance or angle) are immediately visible in the main view.
This makes it possible to complete test readings, as well as to check and optimize the cur-
rent position and configuration of the LECTOR®620.
For an evaluation of the current setting for the contrast, the identified codes are displayed
with different colors:
• Green (excellent): Contrast between 55% and 100%
• Yellow (good): Contrast between 20% and 55%
• Red (poor): Contrast less than 20%
Behavior of the LECTOR®620 during setup:
• Images are accepted into the image sequence at a rate of one per second so that changes
can be recorded.
• To evaluate the current contrast settings, the codes that have been detected are highligh-
ted with different colors.
• The code contents and other relevant data for all known codes are displayed in the code
info box for the purposes of assessing the reading stability.
• The reading results are transferred to the AUX interface in the configured output format.
• The reading results are not transferred to the host interface.
• External triggers at the digital inputs are ignored.
• The trigger distribution on the CAN interface is deactivated.
• Digital outputs are not used.
Toolbar Pause
You can use the button to pause the continuous display of recorded images during setup
and in operating mode.
In the case of paused continuous display, reading continues; however, the currently dis-
played image can be looked at in more detail without being overwritten with a new image.

You can use the button to reduce the image in increments.
You can also reduce the image using the mouse scroll wheel.
Standard size
You can use the button to display the image in its standard size.
3.1.1 Image history
In Image history, the recorded images are displayed one after the other. The images recor-
ded most recently are added on the left.
By comparing and assessing the recorded images, you can analyze, for example,
• whether the trigger is set correctly and the appropriate region of the reading area was
recorded
• whether the codes for moving objects were represented in focus and whether the shutter
time was set correctly
• how often a code was recorded per reading gate.
To find out the reason for unsuccessful readings, you may find it useful to analyze the
images without identified codes (NOREAD).
The images displayed in reduced form in Image history are displayed by clicking in the main
view. The file name and storage location of the images are displayed as a tooltip (mouseo-
ver).
You can use the and buttons to switch between several sequences.
The number of displayed images depends on the operating mode and the configuration:
• Depending on the configuration of the Image selection parameter, either the last 200 in-
dividual images are displayed (one individual image per trigger) or 60 images per second
are displayed in individual sequences.
• During reading to test the configuration (operating mode Setup), the last 30 images re-
corded are displayed.

3.1.2 Code infobox
The reading results are displayed in the Code infobox. To evaluate the readability and read
quality, the code contents are displayed along with other relevant data for all known codes.
Codes that have been detected several times in one image are listed one below the other.
The columns can be enlarged and their sequence changed using drag and drop.
Code content
The contents of the codes are displayed in the CODE CONTENT column.
By assigning the code contents to the code, you can compare the read contents with the
actual contents of the code.
CODE ID
The code type of the code is displayed in the CODE ID column. By assigning the code type to
the code contents, you can activate/deactivate certain code types in the code configuration
in order to limit multiple contents to one code type, for example.
Code contrast PCS
The contrast of the codes in % is displayed in the CODE CONTRAST PCS column.
A high contrast simplifies identification of a code. By comparing different configurations,
you can find the setting for the highest possible contrast.
• From 55% to 100%: Contrast EXCELLENT
• From 20% to 55%: Contrast GOOD
• Less than 20%: Contrast POOR
Module width/height in px
The module width and height of the codes is displayed in pixels in the MODULE WIDTH/HEIGHT
IN PX column.
The value can be used to evaluate the reading reliability (reserve) in relation to the image
resolution. The higher the value, the more reliable the reading. A value of at least 2/2, is
recommended, i.e. every code element is represented by at least 2/2 pixels.
By comparing the two values, you may be able to detect a distortion of the image or of the
code.
