Introduction
The 48CR code reader is a camera-based product with internal light-emitting diodes capable of decoding the following:
• One-dimensional (1D) barcodes (for example, UPC codes)
• Two-dimensional (2D) codes (for example, QR Codes).
The code reader also includes the ability to read low-contrast, damaged, poor print, and direct part mark (DPM) codes. Each code reader features two digital inputs and two digital outputs along with EtherNet/IP connectivity.
The 48CR code reader is intended for use in fixed-mounted applications that are connected to an Allen-Bradley® ControlLogix®, CompactLogix™ (version 20 and above), or a MicroLogix™ controller using Class 3 commands for communication.
There are two connectors on the back of the code reader. The first is an 8-pin,
M12 connector that accepts 5…30V DC power for operation and includes two digital inputs and two digital outputs that are optically isolated. This connection is the same standard connection that is used for Rockwell Automation® safety light curtain product line. The second connector is for EtherNet/IP communication. It couples with the standard 4-pin, M12 cordsets that
Rockwell Automation currently offers for M12 EtherNet/IP connections.
The 48CR code reader IP address configuration state defaults to dynamic and requires a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server to assign the
IP address automatically. For instructions, see
Set the Network Address on page 17
.
You must use this code reader device with either Studio 5000® environment
(version 20 or later) via the Add-on Profile (AOP) or with the WebConnect embedded browser tool.

Installation and Wiring
Install the Code Reader
This chapter describes how to install and wire the 48CR code reader. The only tools that you require are a flat or Phillips screwdriver and a drill.
To install the 48CR code reader device, you must complete the following:
• Set the network address ( page 17
)
• Mount and position the code reader (
• Connect the power I/O and network cables to the code reader ( page 18
)
Set the Network Address
There are two options to make a static connection to your code reader.
Option 1 — Initiate IP Address
1.
The code reader IP address configuration state defaults to dynamic and requires a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server to assign the IP address automatically.
2.
Manually assign the IP address through the Rockwell Automation® BootP/
DHCP server tool.
Option 2 — Change IP Address
1.
Navigate to Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center on your computer.
2.
Click Local Area Connection 4. In the Status dialog box, click Properties.
In the Local Area Connection Properties dialog box, select Internet.
3.
Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click Properties again. Set the IP address to 192.168.1.x (for example, 192.168.1.80).
4.
Click OK.
5.
With the Rockwell Automation® BootP/DHCP server tool, assign an IP address to 192.168.1.x (for example, 192.168.1.90). It cannot be the same as the Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) address used in
6.
Open a web browser and type the IP address of the code reader that was established in
7.
The code reader connects to WebConnect.
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019 17
Chapter 3 Installation and Wiring
Mount and Position the Code Reader
1.
Position the code reader several inches from the symbol. The focal distance varies depending on the code reader catalog number and the 1D/2D barcode size. If needed, you can reposition the code reader a few times to find the ideal distance.
2.
Tip the code reader relative to the symbol to avoid the glare of direct
(specular) reflection.
3.
Symbols can be rotated (tilted) at any angle. However, for best results, symbols must be aligned with the field of view. If there are linear symbols, align the bars in the direction of their movement (ladder orientation) to help minimize the chance of blurring. This alignment results in more consistent decodes.
IMPORTANT Avoid excessive skew or pitch. Maximum skew is ±30°; maximum pitch is
±30°. Figure 2 shows approximate skew axis, pitch axis, and tilt axis.

Configure for EtherNet/IP Network
Before using the 48CR coder reader in an EtherNet/IP network, you must configure it with an IP address, subnet mask, and optional Gateway address. This chapter describes the following configuration requirements and procedures for providing them:
• Use the Rockwell Automation BootP/DHCP utility (version 2.3 or greater) which ships with the Studio 5000® environment or RSLinx® software. You can also use this utility to reconfigure a device whose IP address must be changed.
• Use a third-party DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server.
• Have your network administrator configure the module via the network server.
The following table lists where to find specific information in this chapter.
Topic
Use the Rockwell Automation BootP/DHCP Utility
Use DHCP Software to Configure Your Module
Page
Before you can use your device, you must configure the IP address, subnet mask, and, optionally, the gateway address. You can use the Rockwell Automation
BootP/DHCP utility (version 2.3 or greater) to perform the configuration. You can also use a DHCP server or the network address switches to configure these parameters.

Chapter 4 Configure for EtherNet/IP Network
Restore Device Defaults Via Hardware
If a software default and reset is not possible, it may be necessary to reset the code reader by shorting (connecting) specific pins.
IMPORTANT For this reset to occur, this command must be executed within 60 seconds of a power-on or a reset.
1.
Apply power to the code reader.
2.
Locate Pin 3 (Default) and Pin 7 (Ground) on the connector. Access depends on wiring configuration. This step may require an accessory cable
ATTENTION: Verify that the correct pins are located. If you connect the wrong pins, damage to the code reader can occur.
3.
Momentarily connect the wires (or pins).
4.
Within 3 seconds, disconnect and then reconnect the two wires again.

IP Address
Configure for EtherNet/IP Network Chapter 4
IMPORTANT If you use the BootP/DHCP utility, you must know the Ethernet hardware address of your module. Rockwell Automation assigns each module a unique
48-bit hardware address at the factory. The address is printed on a label on the side of your module. It consists of six hexadecimal digits that are separated by colons. This address is fixed by the hardware and cannot be changed. If you change or replace the device, you must enter the new
Ethernet hardware address of the module when you configure the new module.
0
Class A 0
0
Class B 10
0
Class C 110
The IP address identifies each node on the IP network (or system of connected networks). Each TCP/IP node on a network (including your module) must have a unique IP address.
The IP address is 32 bits long and has a net ID part and a Host ID part. Networks are classified A, B, C, or other. The class of the network determines how an IP address is formatted.

You can distinguish the class of the IP address from the first integer in its dotteddecimal IP address as follows:
Table 11 - Classes of IP Addresses
Range of First Integer Class
0…127 A
128…191
192…223
224…255
B
C
Other
Each node on the same logical network must have an IP address of the same class and must have the same net ID. Each node on the same network must have different Host IDs, which give them a unique IP address.
IP addresses are written as four decimal integers (0…255) separated by periods where each integer gives the value of 1 byte of the IP address.
EXAMPLE The 32-bit IP address: 10000000 00000001 00000000 00000001 is written as 128.1.0.1.
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019 23
Chapter 4 Configure for EtherNet/IP Network
Gateway Address
This section applies to multi-network systems. If you have a single-network system, go to
. The gateway address is the default address of a network, it provides one domain name and point of entry to the site.
Gateways connect individual networks into a system of networks. When a node must communicate with a node on another network, a gateway transfers the data between the two networks.
Figure 4 shows gateway G, which connects Network
1 with Network 2.
Figure 4 - Two Network Connection with Gateway G

128.1.0.1
Network 1 128.1.0.2
G
B
128.2.0.1
C
128.2.0.2
Network 2
128.2.0.3
When host B with IP address 128.2.0.1 communicates with host C, it knows from the IP address of C that C is on the same network. In an Ethernet environment, B then resolves the IP address of C into a hardware address (MAC
ID) and communicates with C directly.
When host B communicates with host A, it knows from the IP address of A that
A is on another network (the net IDs are different). To send data to A, B must have the IP address of the gateway that connects the two networks. In this example, the IP address of the gateway on Network 2 is 128.2.0.3.
The gateway has two IP addresses (128.1.0.2 and 128.2.0.3). The hosts on
Network 1 must use the first and the hosts on Network 2 must use the second. To be usable, the gateway of the host must be addressed using a net ID that matches its own.
Subnet Mask
24
The subnet mask is used for splitting IP networks into a series of subgroups, or subnets. The mask is a binary pattern that is matched up with the IP address to turn part of the Host ID address field into a field for subnets.
EXAMPLE Take Network 2 (a Class B network) in the previous example and add another network. The selection of the following subnet mask would add two additional net ID bits, which allows for four logical networks:
1111111 11111111 11000000 00000001 = 255.255.192.0
These two bits of the host ID used to extend the net ID
Two bits of the Class B host ID have been used to extend the net ID. Each unique combination of bits in the part of the Host ID where subnet mask bits are 1 specifies another logical network.
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019

128.2.128.2
Network 2.2
A second network with Hosts D and E was added. Gateway G2 connects
Network 2.1 with Network 2.2.
Hosts D and E use Gateway G2 to communicate with hosts not on Network 2.2.
Hosts B and C use Gateway G to communicate with hosts not on Network 2.1.
When B is communicating with D, G (the configured gateway for B) routes the data from B to D through G2.
Set the Network Address
This code reader ships with DHCP enabled as default. To change the network address, you must do the following:
1.
Use a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, such as
Rockwell Automation BootP/DHCP.
2.
Retrieve the IP address from nonvolatile memory.
Use the
Rockwell Automation
BootP/DHCP Utility
The Rockwell Automation BootP/DHCP utility is a standalone program that incorporates the functionality of standard BootP/DHCP software with a userfriendly graphical interface. It is in the Utils directory on the Studio 5000 installation CD. The module must have DHCP enabled (factory default and the network address switches set to an illegal value) to use the utility.
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019 25
Chapter 4 Configure for EtherNet/IP Network
To configure your module with the BootP/DHCP utility, perform the following steps:
1.
Run the BootP/DHCP software.
The BOOT/DHCP Request History dialog appears and it shows the hardware addresses of devices that issue BootP/DHCP requests.
2.
Double-click the hardware address of the device that you want to configure.
The New Entry dialog appears and it shows the MAC ID of the device.
3.
Enter the IP address that you want to assign to the device and click OK.
The device is added to the Relation List, which displays the MAC ID and corresponding IP address, Hostname, and Description (if applicable).
26 Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019
Configure for EtherNet/IP Network Chapter 4
When the IP address assignment is made, the address displays in the IP address column in the Request History section.
4.
To assign this configuration to the device, highlight the device in the
Relation List panel and click Disable BOOTP/DHCP. When power is cycled to the device, it uses the configuration you assigned and does not issue a DHCP request.
TIP To enable DHCP for a device that has had DHCP disabled, highlight the device in the Relation List and click Enable DHCP. You must have an entry for the device in the Relation List panel to re-enable DHCP.
Save the Relation List
You can save the Relation List to use later. To save the Relation List, you must do the following:
1.
Select Save As … from the File Menu.
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019 27
Chapter 4 Configure for EtherNet/IP Network
The Save As dialog box appears.
Use DHCP Software to

2.
Select the folder that you want to save the list to.
3.
Enter a file name for the Relation List (for example, control system configuration) and click Save.
4.
If you want to see your saved file names in the Open dialog box, save your files with the default file type (*.bpc).
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) software automatically assigns
IP addresses to client stations logging on to a TCP/IP network. DHCP is based on BOOTP and maintains some backward compatibility. The main difference is that BOOTP was designed for manual configuration, while DHCP allows for dynamic allocation of network addresses and configurations to newly attached devices.
A DHCP server typically assigns a finite lease time to the offered IP address.
When 50% of the leased time has expired, the module attempts to renew its IP address with the DHCP server. The module could be assigned another IP address, which would cause communicating with the ControlLogix controller to cease.
ATTENTION: To avoid unintentional control, the device must be assigned a fixed IP address. The IP address of this device must not be dynamically provided. If a DHCP server is used, it must be configured to assign a fixed IP address for your device.
Failure to observe this precaution can result in unintended machine motion or loss of process control.

Chapter 7 Parameter Overview
Requested Packet Interval (RPI)
This setting determines the period (in ms) at which data updates over a connection. The RPI control is dimmed because each controller can have its own individual RPI setting.
To set the RPI for that controller, access the Connection tab for the individual module. The minimum and maximum values are module-dependent and differ depending on the limits of the module.
IMPORTANT If the RPI value is entered manually (rather than selecting a value from the list), and that value is not an even multiple of the RPI resolution, then the value is set to the next fastest increment.
For example, if the RPI resolution is 0.5 ms, and you enter 3.4 ms, the value is reset to 3.0, which is the next fastest resolution supported. The 3.4 ms value is not rounded to 3.5 because that would be a slower resolution.
Inhibit Module
Check this box to inhibit, or clear it to uninhibit, your connection to the module.

• The module status information changes to indicate that the module is inhibited and not faulted.
• If you uninhibit a module (clear the checkbox) while online and no fault condition occurs, a connection is made to the module and the module is dynamically reconfigured (if you are the owner controller) with the configuration you have created for that module. If you are a listener

Camera settings are typically obtained during the calibration process, and you do not have to modify them.
IMPORTANT The default values shown in the AOP and WebConnect screen captures are for SXGA auto-focus devices.
Camera Settings
Figure 5 - AOP
Figure 6 - WebConnect
Exposure
This value sets the exposure or integration time (in ms) for the image sensor pixels. The exposure setting in relation to the speed of the object is critical. If an object is moving fast and too long of an exposure value is selected, blurring or smearing of the object occurs. As exposure time is decreased, the movement of the object becomes less of a factor. As the duration of light collection by the pixels is reduced, the image sensor gain must be increased to compensate.
• Default: 2500 ms
• Options: 50…100,000 ms
IMPORTANT This parameter is read-only when in Continuous Read mode.
Gain
Sets the gain value for the image sensor and is a percentage value from 0% (lowest gain) to 100% (highest gain). This setting can be configured through autocalibration. A higher gain value increases the brightness of the image, but the noise performance of the system is reduced. Before configuring the gain, the required exposure must be set. Then, the gain can be configured to optimize the exposure setting.
• Default: SXGA (auto-focus devices) = 0%
WVGA (fixed-focus devices) = 33%
• Options: Any number between 0…100%

Parameter Overview Chapter 7
Pixel Binning
Besides windowing the image sensor, small resolutions can be obtained downsampling the entire captured image by using pixel binning. Pixel binning can increase the signal to noise ratio and produce a more pleasing output image with reduced artifacts. It also improves low-light performance.
IMPORTANT Enabling this feature does not affect the sensor frame rate as the pixels must still be processed to be averaged and binned.
• Default: Disabled
• Options: 0 = Disabled
1 = Enabled
– Disabled
Pixel binning is disabled.
– Enabled
Two column and two row pixels are averaged to create one pixel value providing a 2:1 reduction in the vertical pixels and a 2:1 in reduction in the horizontal pixels for a combined 4:1 reduction. An image with a dimension of 640 x 480 is scaled to 320 x 240. See following example:

Illumination
Figure 7 - AOP
Figure 8 - WebConnect
Illumination Brightness
This feature allows you to adjust the brightness of the illumination light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Since the code reader has control over the brightness of the illumination, it can provide consistent brightness output between code readers through a factory calibration operation. Each of the brightness settings is calibrated to provide the same level of intensity for each code reader.
• Default: High
• Options: 0 = Off
1 = Low
2 = Medium
3 = High
4 = Constant
– Off
Light source is turned off.
– Low
Light source sets a calibrated low setting.
– Medium
Light source sets a calibrated medium setting.
– High
Light source sets a calibrated high setting.
– Constant
This setting is the same power level as high. However, this setting is always on during the read cycle and only turned off in between read cycles to cut down on human perception of flashing. High was chosen for the power setting because of the scanner power usage that is associated with a constant light source. There are no breaks to cut down on average power.

Window of Interest (WOI)
The active pixel area of the image sensor is called the Window of Interest (WOI).
The WOI allows you to select an area of the field of view in which the desired symbol is located.
The programmable WOI increases decode speed, improves threshold, and makes it easy to select specific symbols from among several in the field of view. You provide the upper-left pixel location and the size of the window in rows and columns to define the WOI.
IMPORTANT WOI shrinks the field of view and therefore could cause some symbols to be missed in dynamic applications.

– Continuous Read
Useful when you test symbol readability or code reader functions. It is not recommended for normal operations.
In Continuous Read, trigger input options are disabled, the code reader is always in the read cycle, and it attempts to decode and transmit every capture. If one symbol stays within read range for multiple read cycles, its data is transmitted repeatedly until it leaves the read range.
The code reader sends replies to serial commands that require responses when symbol data is transmitted, or read cycle timeout is enabled and a timeout occurs and at least one captured image has been processed.
Depending on the combination of enabled symbologies, the code reader can take longer than the timeout to process a captured image.
IMPORTANT Output and No-Read options have no effect on Continuous Read.
– Continuous Read 1 Output
Continuous Read 1 Output can be useful in applications where it is not feasible to use a trigger and all succeeding symbols contain different information. It is also effective in applications where the objects are presented by hand.
In Continuous Read 1 Output, the code reader self-triggers whenever it decodes a new symbol or a timeout occurs.
If End of Read Cycle is set to Timeout and the symbol doesn’t change, the output is repeated at the end of each timeout period. For example, if
Timeout is set to 1 second, the code reader sends the symbol data immediately and repeats the output at intervals of 1 second for as long as it continues to capture the symbol.
If End of Read Cycle is set to New Trigger, the code reader sends the current symbol data immediately, but only once. A new symbol that appears in the range of the code reader is read and sent immediately, provided it is not identical to the previous symbol.
ATTENTION: In automated environments, Continuous Read 1 Output is not recommended because there is typically no reliable way to verify that a symbol was missed.
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019
Parameter Overview Chapter 7
IMPORTANT If Trigger Mode is set to Continuous Read 1 Output, the code reader behaves as if Number of Symbols were set to 1, regardless of the user-defined configuration.
– External Level
Initiate Read Cycle:
Object #1, moving in front of the detector beam, causes a change in the trigger state, which initiates the read cycle.
End Read Cycle:
The same object, moving out of the detector beam, causes another change in the trigger state, which ends the read cycle.
This mode is effective in an application where the conveying speeds are variable and the time the code reader spends reading each object is not predictable. It also helps you determine if a No-Read has occurred.
External Level allows the read cycle (active state) to begin when a trigger (change of state) from an external sensing device is received. The read cycle persists until the object moves out of the sensor range and the active trigger state changes again.
IMPORTANT Level and Edge apply to the active logic state (Active Open or Active
Closed) that exists while the object is in a read cycle, between the rising edge and the falling edge. Rising edge is the trigger signal that is associated with the appearance of an object. Falling edge is the trigger signal that is associated with the subsequent disappearance of the object. These definitions apply to both
External Level and External Edge.
– External Edge
Initiate Read Cycle:
Object # 1, moving in front of the detector beam, causes a change in the trigger state, which initiates the read cycle.
Initiate Second Read Cycle:
Object # 2, moving in front of the detector beam, causes another change in the trigger state. This signal initiates a new read cycle and ends the previous read cycle unless Timeout is enabled and a good read or timeout has not occurred.
This mode is recommended in any application where conveying speed is constant, or if spacing, object size, or read cycle timeouts are consistent.
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019 67
Chapter 7 Parameter Overview
External Edge, as with Level, allows the read cycle (active state) to begin when a trigger (change of state) from an external sensing device is received. However, the passing of an object out of sensor range does not end the read cycle. The read cycle ends with a good read output, or, depending on the End of Read Cycle setting, a timeout, or new trigger occurs.
– Serial Data
Serial Data is effective in a highly controlled environment where the host knows precisely when the object is in the field of view. It is also useful when you must determine if a No-read has occurred.
In Serial Data, the code reader accepts an ASCII character from the host or controlling device as a trigger to start a read cycle. A Serial Data trigger behaves the same as an External Edge trigger.
Serial commands are entered inside angle brackets, as shown here: <t>.
IMPORTANT In Serial Data, when a non-delimited start serial character is sent a read cycle starts; however, a non-delimited stop serial character has no effect.
– Serial Data and Edge
Serial Data or External Edge is seldom used but can be useful in an application that primarily uses an external sensing device but occasionally must be triggered manually.
In this mode, the code reader accepts either a serial ASCII character or an external trigger pulse to start the read cycle.
IMPORTANT In Serial Data, when a non-delimited start serial character is sent a read cycle starts; however, a non-delimited stop serial character has no effect.
– Continuous Read Auto
Behaves identically to Continuous Read but maintains optimal selfadjusting photometry and focus parameters. As a result, the photometry parameters (Exposure and Gain) are continuously updated with the optimal configuration parameters. In this mode, the illumination does not strobe, but instead is always active, as images are continuously captured. If the Auto Focus Mode field is set to 1, and if there is a series of no-reads, this mode self-starts a focus pass. This mode also defines how many no-reads must occur before the focus pass starts.

Parameter Overview Chapter 7
Leading Edge
Used to ignore spurious triggers when Trigger Mode is set to External Edge or
External Level. To consider a change in state on the trigger input, the level must be stable for the trigger filter duration. In an edge mode, the code reader triggers a read cycle if the active state has been uninterrupted for the entire trigger filter duration. In a level mode, the leading edge is filtered such that on an active edge, the state must be held interrupted for the trigger filter duration before a trigger occurs.
• Default: 32 µs
• Options: 1…65,535 (trigger filter range: 32 µs…2.10 s)
Trailing Edge
Used to ignore spurious triggers when Trigger Mode is set to External Edge or
External Level. To consider a change in state on the trigger input, the level must be stable for the trigger filter duration. In an edge mode, the code reader triggers a read cycle if the active state has been uninterrupted for the entire trigger filter duration.

End of Read Cycle
The read cycle is the time during which the code reader attempts to capture and decode a symbol. A timeout, a new trigger, or by the last frame in a capture sequence (or a combination these options), can end a read cycle.

IMPORTANT When operating in Continuous Read or Continuous Read 1 Output, the code reader is always in the read cycle.
• Default: Timeout
• Options: 0 = Timeout
1 = New Trigger
2 = Timeout or new Trigger
3 = Last Frame
4 = Last Frame or New Trigger
– Timeout
Typically used with Serial Data or External Edge and Continuous Read
1 Output. It is effective in highly controlled applications when the maximum length of time between objects can be predicted. It helps verify that a read cycle ends before the next symbol appears, which gives the system extra time to decode and transmit the data to the host.
Timeout ends the read cycle, which causes the code reader to stop reading symbols and send the symbol data or No-Read message when the time set in Timeout elapses (times out), if When to Output is set to
End of Read Cycle.
If in Continuous Read 1 Output, a timeout initiates a new read cycle and allows the same symbol to be read again.
With External Edge, Serial Data, or Serial Data or External Edge enabled, a timeout ends the read cycle and symbol data or a No-Read message is sent to the host.
With External Level enabled, the read cycle does not end until the falling edge trigger occurs or a timeout occurs. The next read cycle does not begin until the next rising edge trigger.
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019
Parameter Overview Chapter 7
– New Trigger
New Trigger is an effective way to end a read cycle when objects move past the code reader at irregular intervals (not timing-dependent).
New Trigger ends the current read cycle and initiates a new one when a new trigger occurs. New Trigger refers only to a rising edge trigger.
With External Edge, Serial Data, or Serial Data or External Edge enabled, an edge or serial trigger ends a read cycle and initiates the next read cycle.
With External Level, a falling edge trigger ends the read cycle but the next read cycle does not begin until the occurrence of the next rising edge trigger.
– Timeout or New Trigger
Useful in applications that require an alternative way to end the read cycle. For example, if an assembly line must stop or the intervals between objects are highly irregular.
Timeout or New Trigger is identical to Timeout except that a timeout or a new trigger (whichever occurs first) ends the read cycle.
– Last Frame
Useful in applications in which the number of captures that are needed can be defined but the timeout duration varies.
Last Frame only applies to Rapid Capture Mode.
– Last Frame or New Trigger
Useful in applications in which line speeds are irregular and a new labeled object could appear before the last frame in a Rapid Capture sequence.
Last Frame or New Trigger is identical to New Trigger except that a new trigger or last frame (whichever occurs first) ends the read cycle.
Read Cycle Timeout
Read Cycle Timeout is the duration of the read cycle.
• Default: 500 ms

Capture Mode
Capture Mode relates to the way that images are captured and processed.
Figure 26 - AOP

72
Capture Mode
• Default: Continuous
• Options: 0 = Rapid Capture
1 = Continuous
– Rapid Capture
In a rapid capture mode, one or multiple captures (as many as 32) can be taken at an interval that the time-between-captures parameter specifies. In this mode, the only limiting time factor is integration and transfer timing.
– Continuous
Continuous mode is useful in applications with slower line speeds or where symbol spacing is random or not time dependent.
In Continuous mode, image captures are taken throughout the read
cycle in a multi-buffered format (see Figure 28
). The code reader begins processing the first captured image simultaneously with the capture of the second image. Captures continue to occur throughout the read cycle until an end condition occurs. End conditions can be a timeout, a new trigger, the last frame in a capture sequence, or a combination of the previous options.

Parameter Overview Chapter 7
Number of Captures
Number of Captures is used to specify the number of captures to be processed in
Rapid Capture Mode.
Sets the total number of captures that are processed during a read cycle in Rapid
Capture Mode. This feature is used with Capture Timing parameters to specify the capture sequence of a rapid capture read cycle.
• Default: 1
• Options: 1…255
IMPORTANT The range of maximum number of captures is dynamic. This range is dependent on the maximum image size in the system. A full-size image
(1280 x 1024) reduces the maximum number of images to 6. The smaller the image size, the greater the maximum number of captures. Once the image size is reduced to small enough dimensions, the maximum number of captures are capped at 64.
If you enter a maximum capture value greater than that allowed, the value is limited to the number of system images. This command also affects the number of stored images that are allowed in the system. If the maximum number of captures is selected, the number of stored images that are allowed is 0.
Rapid Capture Mode
In Rapid Capture Mode, one or multiple captures (as many as 32) can be taken at an interval that the time-between-captures parameter specifies. In this mode, the only limiting time factor is integration and transfer timing.
• Default: Timed Capture
• Options: 0 = Timed Capture
1 = Triggered Capture
– Timed Capture
Timed Rapid Capture is useful in fast-moving applications in which symbols are only in the field of view for a short time and precise timing is required.
In Timed Rapid Capture, decoding occurs independent of and simultaneous with capturing, which allows precise timing or no delay between captures. Also, consecutive captures are regarded as the same symbol if the output data is the same.

– Triggered Capture
Useful in applications where each decode must be treated as a discrete event, regardless of symbol data.
The first trigger event starts the read cycle, and subsequent triggers continue until the predetermined Number of Captures is met, or until the predetermined End of Read Cycle condition is met — whichever occurs first.
IMPORTANT If End of Read Cycle is set for New Trigger and the read cycle qualifications have not been met, the read cycle only ends once it receives the first trigger after reaching the predetermined Number of Captures setting.

This option is useful in applications where multiple symbols can appear during one read cycle (multisymbol). It is also useful where line speeds are slow enough that captured frames can overlap or miss a symbol.
A time delay can be inserted between individual frame captures in Rapid Capture
Mode. If you enter zeros, the result is no time between captures. If you enter a different value in each field, the time delay varies accordingly.
• Default: 0

Store No Read Image
Figure 35 - AOP
Figure 36 - WebConnect
Store Image on No Read (AOP)/Image Storage Type (WebConnect)
Allows you to store images from separate read cycles and retrieve them later. The number of available slots for storage depends on the mode of operation. If the code reader is in Rapid Capture Mode, the number of images that can be stored is equivalent to the maximum number of the rapid count (the current rapid count setting). If the code reader is in Continuous Capture Mode, a number of images equivalent to the maximum number of the rapid count minus 3.
• Default: Checkbox cleared/Disabled
• Options: 0 = Checkbox cleared/Disabled
1 = Store on No-read
– Checkbox cleared/Disabled
Upon selection of this option, all saved images are cleared and the code reader does not store images for later viewing.
– Store on No-read
This option causes the code reader to store an image upon exiting the read cycle for retrieval later. If multiple captures are present during the duration of a read cycle, the stored image is the last image that is processed for that read cycle. This image is stored in RAM and can be retrieved as long as power is not cycled to the code reader and as long as the code reader has not been reset via a reset/save sequence. Other commands that can initialize storage in RAM are ones that change capture modes or put the code reader in a test capture mode.
Store Last Image (AOP)/Image Storage Mode (WebConnect)
• Default: Checkbox cleared/First Mode
• Options: 0 = Checkbox cleared/First Mode
1 = Last Mode
– Checkbox cleared/First Mode
This mode allows the code reader to store images until the available image memory has been filled. At that point, the code reader stops saving additional images. In this mode, you always have the first image that is captured, because the saving process stops once memory has been filled.
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019 77
Chapter 7 Parameter Overview
– Last Mode
In this mode, image storage continues after available memory limits are reached. The oldest image in memory is overwritten, so you always have the most recent stored image.

Image Processing Timeout
Useful in higher speed applications where image-processing time is long enough that not all captures have an opportunity to be processed. Specifies the maximum amount of time to process a captured image. When the timeout expires, the image processing is aborted. This timeout works in both Rapid Capture and
Continuous Capture modes and with the Configuration Database.
IMPORTANT The timeout period excludes capture time. If a timeout occurs during processing and no symbols in the field of view have been decoded, the image is recorded as a No Read. For this reason, a longer timeout must be tried to allow the symbol to decode successfully.

QR Code
QR Code can handle numeric, alphanumeric, and byte data along with kanji and kana characters. Up to 7366 characters (numeric data) can be encoded using this symbol. Therefore, less space is required to encode the same amount of data in a
QR Code symbol than in a conventional symbol, which lowers the cost of labeling.
Three Position Detection Patterns in the symbol make omni-directional, ultrafast reading possible.
QR Code has error protection capability. Data can often be restored even if a part of the symbol has become dirty or damaged.
QR Codes are widely implemented in the Japanese automotive industry and throughout their worldwide supply chain.

Guard Bar Status
Useful when Interleaved 2 of 5 multisymbols are enabled to help prevent false data output, which typically occurs with highly tilted or skewed symbols.
A guard bar is a heavy bar (at least twice the width of the wide bar) that surrounds the printed Interleaved 2 of 5 symbol and helps prevent false reads.

When Royal Mail is enabled, the code reader only decodes Royal Mail symbols.
– KIX
When KIX is enabled, the code reader only decodes KIX symbols.
– UPU
When UPU is enabled, the code reader decodes UPU symbols.
For example, if Postal Symbology Type is set to UPU and POSTNET
Status is enabled, the code reader attempts to decode both UPU and
POSTNET symbols.
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019
Parameter Overview Chapter 7
POSTNET Status
POSTNET is used by the United States Postal Service to direct mail. The ZIP
Code or ZIP+4 Code is encoded in the symbol. Data is encoded in half-height and full-height bars, which makes POSTNET a 2-state symbology. The delivery point (usually the last two digits of the address or post office box number) is also typically encoded in POSTNET symbols.
If U.S. Post and POSTNET Status are both enabled, the code reader decodes
POSTNET symbols.
• Default: Enabled
• Options: 0 = Disabled
1 = Enabled
PLANET Status
PLANET (Postal Alphanumeric Encoding Technique) is a symbology that is used by the United States Postal Service to track and identify items during delivery. Each PLANET symbol is either 12 or 14 digits long, and encodes data in half-height and full-height bars, which makes PLANET a 2-state symbology.
The symbol always starts and ends with a full-height bar (guard rail), and a set of five bars in which two of the bars are always short represents each individual digit.
If U.S. Post and PLANET Status are both enabled, the code reader decodes
PLANET symbols.
• Default: Enabled
• Options: 0 = Disabled
1 = Enabled
USPS4CB Status
USPS4CB, also called Intelligent Mail, is used by the United States Postal Service to sort and track individual items and flats of mail. USPS4CB combines the capabilities of POSTNET and PLANET, and can encode 31 digits (65 bars).
USPS4CB symbols are slightly longer than POSTNET symbols, and offer additional symbol height and width flexibility.
Data is encoded in four types of bars (states), where a name and a value identifies each. This type of postal symbol is known as 4-state. Each bar has a tracker
(middle section), to which an ascender (top section) or descender (bottom section) can be added. The 4-state format allows the symbol to contain more information, and makes it easier to decode. 4-state symbols can also be printed easily in various media, including dot matrix, inkjet, and laser.

This option is used with Continuous Read mode.
116 Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019
Parameter Overview Chapter 7
When operating in Static Presentation mode, the red LEDs illuminate while the code reader is searching for a symbol in Continuous Read mode. When a symbol is placed in the field of view and a good read occurs, the green LEDs illuminate and stay on during the time set in
Green Flash Duration. Only one read occurs during that time unless
Multisymbol is enabled in Number of Symbols (see
IMPORTANT If Static Presentation Mode is selected but the code reader is not in
Continuous Read, the Green Flash does not occur.
To use Static Presentation:
1. Enable Continuous Read.
2. Select the number of symbols.
3. Enable Static Presentation in Green Flash Mode.
4. Select the read time in Green Flash Duration.
– Match
The green LEDs flash when a match condition is met. If Multisymbol is enabled, then green flash LEDs illuminate only if all symbols qualify as a match. If matchcode is disabled, then this mode activates the LEDs on a good read.
– Mismatch
Same as Match, except that LEDs illuminate on a mismatch.
– Strobe
Green flash LEDs act as an illumination strobe for image capture. If it is required that the green flash LEDs be the only illumination for image capture, then the internal illumination LEDs can be disabled.
Targeting

• Default: Always ON
• Options: 0 = Always OFF
1 = ON only when not in the read cycle
2 = ON only when in the read cycle
3 = Always ON
– Always OFF
The target pattern always remains OFF unless overridden by an operational command.
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019 117

– Standard
In Standard mode, the STATUS LED indicates the read cycle status and the GOOD READ LED illuminates upon a good read at the end of a read cycle. In a read rate test, these LEDs represent the percentage of good reads per images captured.
– AIM Grade
When the LED mode is set to AIM grade, this parameter determines which AIM grade to output via the LEDs. Using the read rate scale as reference, if the AIM grade result was a grade A, all LEDs from
20…100% illuminate, if the result was a grade F, only the 20% LED would illuminate.
ISO/IEC 16022 Grade
Provides visual grading of specific ISO/IEC 16022 parameters. Determines which ISO/IEC 16022 parameter the code reader grades via the LEDs.

Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019 119
Chapter 7 Parameter Overview
Gain
When enabled, gain is calibrated to provide the best available image quality and performance.
When disabled, gain is fixed and is not part of the calibration process.
IMPORTANT If you choose to calibrate the code reader, a decode is also required for the calibration process to be completed successfully.
• Default: Quick Calibrate
• Options: 0 = Disabled
1 = Enabled (Decode Required)
2 = Quick Calibrate
– Disabled
When disabled, gain is fixed and is not part of the calibration process.
– Enabled
When enabled, gain is calibrated to provide the best image quality and performance for the symbol present in the field of view. Calibration requires a decodable symbol in the field of view, as feedback from the symbol decoding process is used to select the best gain setting. If a symbol is not decoded the process results in a fail condition. Gain is enabled by default.
– Quick Calibrate
Quick Calibrate uses the automatic gain control (AGC) feature of the image sensor to adjust the gain value such that the current image falls into a desirable sensitivity range region of the image sensor, achieving optimal image luminance. The image sensor converges on the optimal gain value within a few image frames.

Exposure
Unless the application is static, exposure must be configured based on the line
speed of the application. Table 12

The image sensor converges on the optimal exposure value within a few image frames.
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019 121
Chapter 7 Parameter Overview
Focus Position
The focus position of the code reader can be configured by entering the target distance value, so focus position can usually be configured without calibration.
However, if it is necessary to calibrate the focus distance use either of the following methods.
• Default: Quick Focus
• Options: 0 = Disabled
1 = Enabled (Decode Required)
2 = Quick Focus
– Disabled
The focus position is fixed and is not part of the calibration process.
– Enabled (Decode Required)
Focus position is calibrated to provide the best image quality and performance. This method is a simple search algorithm that cycles through focus settings and configures camera settings to try to locate the desired focus as quickly as possible. The desired focus is located when a symbol is decoded. Once a focus distance that produces a successful decode has been located, the algorithm fine tunes the search to locate the inside and outside focal distances. The final focus distance is between the inside and outside values. This method can be timeconsuming if the focus is not found on the first pass.
– Quick Focus
Quick Focus quickly locates the focus setting for an object at the center of the field of view. The focus setting is located with minimal image processing, by analyzing a histogram of the image frame. Before performing focus calibration, a value for exposure and gain is determined. The process then steps through the focus range of the system capturing the required number of image frames for each focal position. Then, a histogram is performed on each image frame, and the histogram results for each focal position are averaged. When the process is finished, the data is analyzed and the optimal focus position is determined.
IMPORTANT This method may not work for all applications. This method is not ideal for small symbols.
122 Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019
Parameter Overview Chapter 7
Symbol Type
This parameter specifies the operation of the calibration feature. The default configuration performs calibration on Gain and Symbol Type. The calibration process optimizes the Gain setting for the configured Exposure of the devices.
• Default: Calibrate
• Options: 0 = Don't Calibrate
1 = Calibrate
– Don't Calibrate
When disabled, only the current enabled symbologies are considered during the calibration process.
– Calibrate
When enabled, autodiscrimination is in effect during the calibration process. All supported symbologies except PDF417 and Pharmacode are attempted during calibration. Any new symbologies that are successfully decoded during calibration remain enabled at the end of the process. All enabled symbologies remain enabled. For example, assume that only Code 39 is enabled at the beginning of calibration. If a
Code 128 symbol is decoded during calibration, then Code 128 and
Code 39 are enabled.
Window of Interest Framing
If WOI Framing mode is enabled, calibration sets the WOI of the camera to a full-size image. When a symbol is decoded, the WOI of the camera is zoomed in both vertically and horizontally (regardless of which WOI mode is enabled) to include the symbol plus an additional margin, which speeds up the calibration process. After calibration is successfully completed, the WOI of the camera is adjusted according to the mode enabled. Otherwise, the original WOI configuration is retained.
If WOI framing is not enabled, the current WOI configuration is used until a symbol has been decoded. After a symbol is decoded, the WOI is framed exactly as it would be if a WOI framing mode was enabled. When calibration completes, the original WOI configuration is restored.
• Default: Don't Calibrate
• Options: 0 = Don't Calibrate
1 = Row and Column
2 = Row
3 = Column
4 = Straight Line
5 = Straight Line Framed
– Don't Calibrate
When disabled, the WOI is not modified after the calibration process is complete.
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019 123
Chapter 7 Parameter Overview
– Row and Column
If the calibration process is successful, the WOI is modified to frame the symbol and an additional margin area around the symbol, which the
WOI determines.
– Column
If the calibration process is successful, the WOI columns are modified to frame the symbol vertically, plus an additional margin area around the symbol, which the WOI Margin parameter determines.
– Row
If the calibration process is successful, the WOI rows are modified to frame the symbol horizontally, plus an additional margin area around the symbol, which the WOI Margin parameter determines.
– Straight Line
This feature is intended for use with linear symbologies. If the calibration process is successful, the orientation of the symbol is determined and the WOI is modified according to the symbol orientation. The scan line orientation is determined to be vertical if the symbol tilt is between 225…315°, or between 45…135°. Otherwise, the scan line is horizontal. If the symbol is vertical, the scan height parameter sets the image column size, and is configured for full row resolution. If the symbol is horizontal, the scan height parameter sets the image row size, and is configured for full column resolution. The scan line is centered in the middle of the symbol. If the symbol is tilted such that the scan line does not pass completely through the symbol,
the scan width is adjusted to include the entire symbol. See Figure 92
.
Figure 92 - Straight-line Scan

– Straight Line Framed
This parameter is the same as Straight Line, except that the WOI also frames the scan line on the symbol length. The scan line includes the symbol plus an additional margin area that the WOI Margin parameter determines.

Symbol Contrast
Lets you know if contrast settings are less than acceptable. All pixels that fall within the area of the test symbol, including its required zone, are sorted by their reflectance values to select the darkest 10% and the lightest 10% of the pixels.
The arithmetic mean of the darkest and the lightest pixels is calculated and the difference of the two means is the Symbol Contrast. ANSI Symbol Contrast grading is defined as following:
• A (4.0) if SC > 70%
• B (3.0) if SC > 55%
• C (2.0) if SC > 40%
• D (1.0) if SC > 20%
• F (0.0) if SC < 20%
If enabled, the symbol contrast is appended to the symbol data according to the
ISO/IEC 16022 Symbol Quality Output Mode setting.
• Default: Disabled
• Options: 0 = Disabled
1 = Enabled
Print Growth
The extent to which dark or light markings appropriately fill or exceed their module boundaries. These values are determined by counting pixels in the clock pattern of the binary digitized image, then comparing it to a nominal value and minimum and maximum values. The print growth grade is defined as following:
• A (4.0) if -0.050 < PG < 0.50
• B (3.0) if -0.070 < PG < 0.70
• C (2.0) if -0.085 < PG < 0.85
• D (1.0) if -0.10 < PG < 1.00
• F (0.0) if PG < -1.00 or PG > 1.00

Matchcode Type
Allows you to choose the way that master symbols are compared with symbols read later.
• Default: Enabled
• Options: 0 = Disabled
1 = Enabled
2 = Wild Card
3 = Sequential
– Disabled
Has no effect on operations.
– Enabled
Instructs the code reader to compare symbols or portions of symbols with the master symbol.
– Wild Card
Allows you to enter user-defined wildcard characters in the master symbol.
– Sequential
Instructs the code reader to sequence after each match (numeric only) and compare symbols or portions of symbols for sequential numbers.
TIP If Matchcode Type is set to Sequential, the code reader behaves as if
Number of Symbols were set to 1, regardless of the user-defined configuration.
Sequential Matching
When enabled, Sequential Matching determines if a count is in ascending
(incremental) or descending (decremental) order. Useful in tracking product serial numbers that increment or decrement sequentially.
• Default: Increment
• Options: 0 = Increment
1 = Decrement
144 Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019
Parameter Overview Chapter 7
Match Start Position
Match Start Position determines the portions of symbols that are matched by defining the first character in the symbol (from left to right) that is compared with those characters of the master symbol, when Matchcode Type is set to
Enabled or Sequential. Useful to define specific portions of a symbol for comparison. For example, if a symbol contains a part number, manufacturing date, and lot code info, but you are only interested in the part number information, you can set the code reader to sort only the part number and ignore the other characters.
EXAMPLE If Match Start Position is set to 3, the first two characters that are read in the symbol are ignored and only the third and subsequent characters to the right are compared, up to the number of characters specified by Match
Length.
• Default: 0
• Options: 0…3000
Match Length
Defines the length of the character string that is compared with the master symbol when Match Start Position is set to 1 or greater. When Match Start
Position is set to 0, no comparison occurs.
EXAMPLE If Match Length is set to 6 in a 10-character symbol, and Match Start
Position is set to 2, only the second through seventh characters (from left to right) are compared.
• Default: 1
• Options: 1…3000
Rockwell Automation Publication 48CR-UM001A-EN-P - November 2019 145
Chapter 7 Parameter Overview
Wildcard
Wildcard character allows you to define a wildcard character as part of the master symbol.
EXAMPLE With Wildcard character defined as the default asterisk, when CR*34 is defined as the master symbol, it results in matches for CR134 and CR234, but not CR2345. Entering URGENT** as your master symbol results in matches for URGENT, URGENT1, and URGENT12 but not for URGENT123. This definition means that any wildcards that are appended to the master symbol data result in matches of symbols in variable lengths up to the master symbol lengths but not over. However, wildcards in the beginning or center of a symbol (for example, UR**NT) do not allow for variable symbol lengths.
• Default: * <asterisk>
• Options: Any ASCII character
Sequence on No Read
When Sequence on No-Read is enabled and Matchcode is set to Sequential, the code reader sequences the master symbol on every match or No-Read. When disabled, it does not sequence on a No-Read. Useful when the code reader must stay in sequence even if no decode occurs.
• Default: Enabled
• Options: 0 = Disabled
1 = Enabled

IMPORTANT Matchcode Type (
) must be set to Sequential for this command to function.
When enabled, the master symbol sequences on every decode, match, or mismatch. Enable this parameter if every trigger event must have a decode and multiple consecutive mismatches may occur. When disabled, the master symbol does not sequence whenever consecutive mismatches occur. Disable this parameter if every trigger event must have a decode, but no multiple consecutive mismatches may occur.
• Default: Disabled
• Options: 0 = Disabled
1 = Enabled
New Master Pin
If Matchcode and New Master Pin are enabled and the new master pin is momentarily activated (must be active for a minimum of 10 ms), the master symbol information is loaded into the database based on the next read cycle that achieves a Good Read, starting with Index 1.
IMPORTANT For the 48CR code reader, Input 1 (pin 3) is Default and Input 2 (pin 4) is New
Master.

Sequence Step Interval
Sequencing in Matchcode operations can occur in steps from 1…32,768.
Sequencing performs like a mechanical counter by displaying positive integers and a specific number of digits after rollovers. For example, 000-3 = 997 (not -3) and 999+3 = 002 (not 1002). Useful in applications where it is desirable to count by intervals other than 1.
• Default: 1
