Attention!
The protection of personnel and the device cannot be guaranteed if the device is operated
in a manner not corresponding to its intended use.
Bar code readers of the BCL 300i series are conceived as stationary, high-speed scanners
with integrated decoders for all current bar codes used for automatic object detection.
In particular, unauthorized uses include:
• in rooms with explosive atmospheres
• operation for medical purposes
Areas of application
The bar code readers of the BCL 300i series are especially designed for the following areas
of application:
• Storage technology and materials handling, in particular for object identification on
fast-moving transport systems
• Pallet transport systems
• Automobile sector
• Omnidirectional reading
Access and changes to the device, except where expressly described in this operating
manual, are not authorized.
Safety regulations
Observe the locally applicable legal regulations and the rules of the employer's liability
insurance association.
Qualified personnel
Mounting, commissioning and maintenance of the device must only be carried out by
qualified personnel.
Electrical work must be carried out by a certified electrician.
Attention, laser radiation!
If you look into the beam path over a longer time period, the retina of your eye may
be damaged!
Never look directly into the beam path!
Do not point the laser beam of the BCL 348i at persons!
When mounting and aligning the BCL 348i, avoid reflections of the laser beam off
reflective surfaces!
The BCL 348i bar code readers correspond to the EN 60825-1 safety standard for a
class 2 laser systems. They also comply with the U.S. 21 CFR 1040.10 regulations for
a class II laser product except for deviations pursuant to Laser Notice No. 50, dated
July 26, 2001.
Radiant Energy: The BCL 348i uses a low power visible laser diode. The emitted
wavelength is 655nm. The average laser power is less than 1mW in accordance with
the definition of laser class 2.
Adjustments: Do not attempt any adjustments to or alterations of this product.
Do not remove the protective housing of the bar code reader. There are no user-
serviceable parts inside.
The glass optics cover is the only aperture through which laser radiation may be
observed on this product. A failure of the scanner motor, while the laser diode
continues to emit a laser beam, may cause emission levels to exceed those for safe
operation. The bar code reader has protective devices to prevent this occurrence. If,
however, a stationary beam is emitted, the failing bar code reader should be discon-
nected from the voltage supply immediately.
CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than
specified herein may result in hazardous light exposure.
The use of optical instruments or devices in combination with the device increases
the danger of eye damage!
The housing of the BCL 348i is provided with warning notices A and B above and next
to the reading window as shown in the following figure:

Fast commissioning / operating principle
Below you will find a short description for the initial commissioning of the BCL 348i. Detailed
explanations for all listed points can be found throughout this technical description.
3.1
Mounting the BCL 348i
The BCL 348i bar code readers can be mounted in two different ways:
• Via four M4x6 screws on the bottom of the device.
• Via a BT 56 mounting device in the fastening groove on the bottom of the housing.
3.2
Device arrangement and selection of the mounting location
In order to select the right mounting location, several factors must be considered:
• Size, orientation, and position tolerance of the bar codes on the objects to be
scanned.
• The reading field of the BCL 348i in relation to the bar code module width.
• The resulting minimum and maximum reading distance from the respective reading
field.
• The permissible cable lengths between the BCL 348i and the host system depending
on which interface is used.
• The correct time for data output. The BCL 348i should be positioned in such a way
that, taking into consideration the time required for data processing and the conveyor
belt speed, there is sufficient time to e.g. initiate sorting operations on the basis of the
read data.
• The display and control panel should be very visible and accessible.
• For configuring and commissioning with the webConfig tool, the USB interface should
be easily accessible.
For specific information, please refer to chapter 6 and chapter 7.
Notice!
The beam exits the BCL 348i as follows for the respective devices:
- line scanner parallel to the housing base
- deflection mirror 105 degrees to the housing base
- oscillating mirror perpendicular to the housing base.
The black areas in figure 6.2 are the housing base. The best read results are obtained when:
• The BCL 348i is mounted in such a way that the scanning beam is incident on the bar
code at an angle of inclination greater than ±10° … 15° to vertical.
• The reading distance lies in the middle area of the reading field.
• The bar code labels are of good print quality and have good contrast ratios.
• You do not use high-gloss labels.
• There is no direct sunlight.

If an S7 control is used, you need to ensure that Simatic-Manager Version 5.4 + service
pack 5 (V5.4+SP5) or higher is used.
3.4.3
Installing the GSD file
For the subsequent configuration of the IO devices, e.g., BCL 348i, the corresponding GSD
file must be loaded first. All data in modules required for operating the BCL 348i is described
in this file. These are input and output data and device parameters for the functioning of the
BCL 348i and the definition of the control and status bits.
Install the GSD file associated with the BCL 348i in the PROFINET-IO Manager of your
control.
3.4.4

About the bar code readers of the BCL 300i series
Bar code readers of the BCL 300i series are high-speed scanners with integrated decoder
for all commonly used bar codes, e.g. 2/5 Interleaved, Code 39, Code 128, EAN 8/13 etc.,
as well as codes from the GS1 DataBar family.
Bar code readers of the BCL 300i series are available in various optics models as well as
line scanners, line scanners with deflection mirrors, oscillating mirrors and also optionally as
heated models.
Figure 4.1:
Line scanner, line scanner with deflection mirror and oscillating-mirror scanner
The extensive options for device configuration enable adaptation to a multitude of reading
tasks. Due to the large reading distance combined with the great depth of field, a large
opening angle and a very compact construction, the device is ideally suited for the conveyor
and storage technology market.
The interfaces (RS 232, RS 485 and RS 422) integrated in the various device models and
the fieldbus systems (PROFIBUS DP, PROFINET-IO and Ethernet) offer optimum connec-
tion to the superior host system.

General information
The integrated fieldbus connectivity = i contained in the bar code readers of the BCL 300i
series facilitates the use of identification systems which function without connector unit or
gateways. The integrated fieldbus interface considerably simplifies handling. The Plug-and-
Play concept enables easy networking and very simple commissioning: Directly connect the
respective fieldbus and all configuration is performed with no additional software.
For decoding bar codes, the bar code readers of the BCL 300i series make available the
proven CRT decoder with code fragment technology:
The proven code fragment technology (CRT) enables bar code readers of the BCL 300i
series to read bar codes with a small bar height, as well as bar codes with a damaged or
soiled print image.
With the aid of the CRT decoder, bar codes can also be read without problem in other
demanding situations, such as with a large tilt angle (azimuth angle or even twist angle).
Figure 4.2:
Possible bar code orientation
With the BCL 348i, configuration is generally performed with the aid of the GSD file.
The BCL 348i needs a suitable activation to start a read process as soon as an object is in
the reading field. This opens a time window ("reading gate") in the BCL 348i for the read
process during which the bar code reader has time to detect and decode a bar code.
Alternative activation options include online commands via the host interface and the In the
basic setting, triggering takes place through an external reading cycle signal or via the
PROFINET-IO. An alternative option for activation is the autoReflAct function.
Through the read operation, the BCL 348i collects additional useful pieces of data for diag-
nosis which can also be transmitted to the host. The quality of the read operation can be
inspected using the alignment mode which is integrated in the webConfig tool.
An optional display in English with buttons is used to operate the BCL 348i as well as for
visualization purposes. Two LEDs provide additional optical information on the current oper-
ating state of the device.
The two freely configurable switching inputs/outputs SWIO1 and SWIO2 can be assigned
various functions and control e.g. activation of the BCL 348i or external devices, such as a
PLC.
System, warning and error messages provide assistance in setup/troubleshooting during
commissioning and read operation.

Line scanner (single line)
A line (scan line) scans the label. Due to the opt. opening angle, the reading field width is
dependent on the read distance. Through the movement of the object, the entire bar code
is automatically transported through the scan line.
The integrated code fragment technology permits twisting of the bar code (tilt angle) within
certain limits. These are dependent on the transport speed, the scanning rate of the scanner
and the bar code properties.
Areas of application of the line scanner
The line scanner is used:
• when the bars of the bar code are printed in the conveying direction ('ladder
arrangement').
• with bar codes having very short bar lengths.
• when the ladder code is turned out of the vertical position (tilt angle).
• when the reading distance is large.
Figure 4.8:
Deflection principle for the line scanner
Line scanner with oscillating mirror
The oscillating mirror deflects the scan line additionally to both sides across the scan direc-
tion at a randomly adjustable oscillation frequency. In this way, the BCL 348i can also scan
larger areas or spaces for bar codes. The reading field height (and the scan line length
useful for evaluation) depends on the reading distance due to the optical opening angle of
the oscillating mirror.
Areas of application of the line scanner with oscillating mirror
For line scanners with oscillating mirror, oscillation frequency, start/stop position etc. are
adjustable. It is used:
• when the position of the label is not fixed, e.g. on pallets – various labels can, thus, be
detected at various positions.
• when the bars of the bar code are printed perpendicular to the conveying direction
('picket fence arrangement').
• when reading stationary objects.
• when a large reading field (reading window) has to be covered.
Figure 4.9:
Deflection principle for the line scanner with oscillating mirror add-on
Raster scanner (Raster Line)
Multiple scan lines scan the label. Due to the optical opening angle, the reading field width
is dependent on the reading distance. Provided the code is located in the reading field, it can
be read during standstill. If the code moves through the reading field, it is scanned by
multiple scan lines.
The integrated code fragment technology permits twisting of the bar code (tilt angle) within
certain limits. These are dependent on the transport speed, the scanning rate of the scanner
and the bar code properties. In most cases, everywhere a line scanner is used, a raster
scanner can be used.
Areas of application of the raster scanner:
The raster scanner is used:
• when the bars of the bar code are perpendicular to the conveying direction ('picket
fence arrangement')
• with bar codes with low height displacement
• with very glossy bar codes
Figure 4.10: Deflection principle for the raster scanner
Various product variants of the BCL 300i series are available for connecting to different
fieldbus systems such as PROFIBUS DP, PROFINET-IO and Ethernet.
4.5.1
PROFINET-IO
The BCL 348i is designed as a PROFINET-IO device (acc. to IEEE 802.3). It supports a
transmission rate of up to 100 Mbit/s (100Base TX/FX), full duplex, as well as auto-negotia-
tion and auto-crossover.
The functionality of the device is defined via parameter sets which are clustered in modules.
These modules are contained in a GSDML file.
Each BCL 348i is sealed with a unique MAC-ID. This information is used to assign a unique,
plant-specific device name ("NameOfStation") to the device via the "Discovery and Config-
uration Protocol (DCP)". When configuring a PROFINET-IO system, the assignment of the
device names to the configured IO devices creates a name-based relationship for the partic-
ipating IO devices ("device naming"). Further information can be found in section "Schritt 5
– Einstellen des Gerätenamens - Gerätetaufe" auf Seite 103.
The BCL 348i features multiple M12 connectors / sockets for the electrical connection of the
supply voltage, the interface and the switching inputs and outputs. Additional information on
the electrical connection can be found in Kapitel 7.
The BCL 348i supports:
• PROFIBUS-IO device functionality based on the PROFIBUS profile for identification
systems
• Modular structure of the IO data
• PROFINET-IO RT (Real Time) communication
• Standard Fast Ethernet (100 Mbit/s) connections (M12 technology)
• Integrated Ethernet switch/ 2 Ethernet ports
• PROFINET-IO Conformance Class B (CC-B)
• I&M support: I&M0
For further details, see Kapitel 10!
Identification & Maintenance Functions
The BCL 348i supports the base record I&M0:
Table 4.1:
Base record I&M0
The BCL 348i supports further protocols and services for communication:
• TCP / IP (Client / Server)
• UDP
• DCP
• ARP
• PING

PROFINET-IO – star topology
The BCL 348i can be operated as a single device (standalone) with an individual device
name in a star topology. The PLC must communicate this device name to the participant
during the "device naming".

PROFINET-IO – linear topology
The innovative further development of the BCL 348i with integrated switch functionality
offers the option of connecting multiple bar code readers of type BCL 348i to one another
without direct connection to a switch. In addition to the classic "star topology", a "linear
topology" is thus also possible.
Figure 4.12: PROFINET-IO in a linear topology
Each participant in this network requires its own unique device name that is assigned by the
PLC during the "device naming". For specific information, please refer to section "Schritt 5
– Einstellen des Gerätenamens - Gerätetaufe" auf Seite 103.
The maximum length of a segment (connection from the hub to the last participant) is limited
to 100m.
4.6
Heater
For low-temperature applications to min. -35°C (e.g. in cold storage), the bar code readers
of the BCL 348i series can optionally be permanently fitted with a built-in heating and these
bar code readers purchased as separate device models.
4.7
External parameter memory in the MS 348 / MK 348
The parameter memory available in the MS 348 or MK 348 simplifies the time saving on-site
exchange of a BCL 348i by providing a copy of the current parameter set of the BCL 348i
and by storing the device name as well. This eliminates the need to configure the exchanged
device manually and, in particular, a new naming of the device – the control can immediately
access the exchanged BCL 348i.

AutoReflAct stands for Automatic Reflector Activation and permits an activation without
additional sensors. This is achieved by directing the scanner with reduced scanning beam
towards a reflector mounted behind the conveyor path.
Notice!
Compatible reflectors are available on request.
As long as the scanner is targeted at the reflector, the reading gate remains closed. If,
however, the reflector is blocked by an object such as a container with a bar code label, the
scanner activates the read procedure, and the label on the container is read. When the path
from the scanner to the reflector has cleared, the read procedure has completed and the
scanning beam is reduced and again directed onto the reflector. The reading gate is closed.
Figure 4.13: Reflector arrangement for autoReflAct
The autoReflAct function uses the scanning beam to simulate a photoelectric sensor and
thus permits an activation without additional sensor system.
4.9
Reference codes
The BCL 348i offers the possibility of storing one or two reference codes.
It is possible to store the reference codes via the webConfig tool, via online commands or
PROFINET-IO.
The BCL 348i can compare read bar codes with one and/or both reference codes and
execute user-configurable functions depending on the comparison result.
With the autoConfig function, the BCL 348i offers the user who only wishes to simultane-
ously read one code type (symbology) with one number of digits an extremely simple and
convenient configuration option.
After starting the autoConfig function via the switching input or from a superior control, it is
sufficient to position a bar code label with the desired code type and number of digits in the
reading field of the BCL 348i.
Afterward, bar codes with the same code type and number of digits are recognized and
decoded.
Notice!
The settings made via the webConfig configuration tool push the parameters set in the
PROFINET-IO only temporarily into the background. They are overwritten during integration
into the PROFINET-IO or after deactivation of service mode of the PROFINET master with
those settings made via the GSD file!
Device settings for operating the BCL 348i on the PROFINET-IO are managed and
configured exclusively by the PROFINET-IO Controller (PLC). Permanent changes
must be carried out here!

Heating models of the bar code readers
The BCL 348i bar code readers are optionally available as models with integrated heating.
In this case, heating is permanently installed ex works. Self-installation on-site by the user
is not possible!
Features
• Integrated heating (permanently installed)
• Extends the application range of the BCL 348i to -35°C
• Supply voltage 24VDC ±20%
• BCL 348i enabling through an internal temperature switch
(switch-on delay about 30min for 24VDC and minimum ambient temperature
of -35°C)
• Necessary conductor cross-section for the voltage supply: at least 0.75mm²; the use
of ready-made cables is, thus, not possible
Construction
The heating consists of two parts:
• The front cover heater
• The housing heater
Function
When the 24VDC supply voltage is applied to the BCL 348i, a temperature switch initially
only connects the heating to current (front cover heater and housing heater). During the
heating phase (around 30min), when the inside temperature rises above 15°C, the temper-
ature switch connects the BCL 348i to the supply voltage. This is followed by the self test
and the changeover to read operation. The "PWR" LED lights up, showing overall readiness
for operation.
When the inside temperature reaches approximately 18 °C, another temperature switch
turns the housing heater off and, if necessary, back on again (if the inside temperature drops
below 15°C). This does not interrupt the read operation. The front cover heater remains acti-
vated until an inside temperature of 25°C is reached. At temperatures above this, the front
cover heater switches off and, with a switching hysteresis of 3°C, back on again at an inside
temperature below 22°C.
Mounting location
Notice!
The mounting location is to be selected such that it does not expose the BCL 348i with heat-
ing directly to a cold air stream. To achieve an optimal heating effect, the BCL 348i should
be mounted so that it is thermally isolated.
Electrical connection
The required core cross section of the connection cable for the voltage supply must be at
least 0.75 mm².
The voltage supply must not be looped through from one device to the next.
Power consumption
The energy requirement depends on the model:
• the line/raster scanner with heating typically consumes a maximum of 17W power.
• the line scanner with oscillating mirror and heating typically consumes a maximum of
26W power.
• the line/raster scanner with deflection mirror and heating typically consumes a
maximum of 19W power.
These values are based on operation with unconnected switching outputs.

Reading field curves / optical data
5.4.1
Bar code characteristics
Notice!
Please note that the size of the bar code module influences the maximum reading distance
and the width of the reading field. Therefore, when selecting a mounting location and/or the
bar code label, take into account the different reading characteristics of the scanner with var-
ious bar code modules.
Figure 5.6:
The most important characteristics of a bar code
The range in which the bar code can be read by the BCL 348i (the so-called reading field)
depends on the quality of the printed bar code and its dimensions.
Therefore, above all, the module of a bar code is decisive for the size of the reading field.
Notice!
A rule of thumb: The smaller the module of the bar code is, the smaller the maximum reading
distance and reading field width will be.
M
=
Module: The narrowest line or space of a bar code
in mm.
ZB
=
Wide character: Wide bars and gaps are a multiple
(ratio) of the module.
Module x Ratio = ZB (Normal Ratio 1 : 2.5).
BZ
=
Quiet zone: The quiet zone should be at least 10
times the module, but not less than 2.5mm.
L
=
Code length: The length of the bar code in mm
including the start and stop characters. The quiet
zone is included depending on the code definition.
SL
=
Bar length: Height of the elements in mm.
A raster variant is also available in the BCL 300i series. The BCL 300i as a raster scanner
projects 8 scan lines which vary depending on the reading distance from the raster aperture.

Reading field curves
Notice!
Please notice that the real reading fields are also influenced by factors such as labeling
material, printing quality, reading angle, printing contrast etc., and may thus deviate from the
reading fields specified here.
The reading field curves also apply for the variants with heating.
The zero position of the reading distance always refers the front edge of the housing of the
beam exit and is shown in figure 5.7 for the three housing types of the BCL 348i.

6.3.1
Selecting a mounting location
In order to select the right mounting location, several factors must be considered:
• Size, orientation, and position tolerance of the bar codes on the objects to be
scanned.
• The reading field of the BCL 348i in relation to the bar code module width.
• The resulting minimum and maximum reading distance from the respective reading
field (see chapter 5.4 "Reading field curves / optical data").
• The permissible cable lengths between the BCL 348i and the host system depending
on which interface is used.
• The correct time for data output. The BCL 348i should be positioned in such a way
that, taking into consideration the time required for data processing and the conveyor
belt speed, there is sufficient time to e.g. initiate sorting operations on the basis of the
read data.
• The display elements such as LEDs or the display should be highly visible.
• For configuring and commissioning with the webConfig tool, the USB interface should
be easily accessible.
For specific information, please refer to chapter 6 and chapter 7.
Notice!
The beam of the BCL 348i exits:
•
parallel to the housing base in the case of the line scanner
•
at 105 degrees from the housing base in the case of the deflection mirror
•
perpendicular to the housing base in the case of the oscillating mirror
In each case, the housing base is the black area in figure 6.2. The best read results are
obtained when:
• The BCL 348i is mounted in such a way that the scanning beam is incident on the bar
code at an angle of inclination greater than ±10° … 15° to vertical.
• The reading distance lies in the middle area of the reading field.
• The bar code labels are of good print quality and have good contrast ratios.
• You do not use high-gloss labels.
• There is no direct sunlight.

Avoiding total reflection – Line scanner
The bar code label must be positioned at an angle of inclination greater than ±10° … 15°
from vertical in order to avoid total reflection of the laser beam (see figure 6.6)!
Total reflection occurs whenever the laser light of the bar code reader is directly incident on
the surface of the bar code at an angle of 90°. The light directly reflected by the bar code
may overload the bar code reader and thereby cause non-readings!
Figure 6.6:
Total reflection – line scanner
6.3.3
Avoiding total reflection – deflection mirror scanner
For the BCL 348i with deflection mirror, the laser beam exits at an angle of 105° to the rear
housing wall.
An angle of incidence of 15° of the laser to the label has already been integrated in the
deflection mirror so that the BCL 348i can be installed parallel to the bar code (rear housing
wall).

Avoiding total reflection – oscillating-mirror scanner
For the BCL 348i with oscillating mirror, the laser beam exits at an angle
of 90° to vertical.
For the BCL 348i with oscillating mirror, the swivel range of ±20°
(±12° for devices with heating) is to be taken into account.
This means that in order to be on the safe side and to avoid total reflection, the BCL 348i
with oscillating mirror must be inclined upward or downward 20° … 30°!
Notice!
Mount the BCL 348i with oscillating mirror in such a way that the outlet window of the bar
code reader is parallel to the object. This will result in an angle of inclination of approx. 25°.

Mounting location
When selecting a mounting location, pay attention to:
• Maintaining the required environmental conditions (temperature, humidity).
• Possible soiling of the reading window due to liquids, abrasion by boxes, or
packaging material residues.
• Lowest possible chance of damage to the BCL 348i by mechanical collision or
jammed parts.
• Possible extraneous light (no direct sunlight or sunlight reflected by the bar code).

Devices with integrated heating
For devices with integrated heating, also observe the following points:
• Mount the BCL 348i in a way which provides maximum thermal isolation, e.g. using
rubber-bonded metal.
• Mount in such a way that the device is protected from draft and wind; mount additional
shields if necessary.
Notice!
When installing the BCL 348i in a protective housing, it must be ensured that the scanning
beam can exit the protective housing without obstruction.
6.3.7
Possible reading angles between BCL 348i and bar code
The optimum alignment of the BCL 348i is accomplished when the scan line scans the code
bars almost at a right angle (90°). All reading angles that are possible between the scan line
and bar code must be taken account (figure 6.9).

Switching input / output
The bar code readers of the BCL 300i series are equipped with two freely programmable,
opto-decoupled switching inputs and outputs, SWIO_1 and SWIO_2.
The switching inputs can be used to activate various internal functions of the BCL 348i
(decoding, autoConfig, …). The switching outputs can be used to signal the state of the
BCL 348i and to implement external functions independent of the superior control.
Notice!
The respective function as input or output can be set with the aid of the webConfig configuration
tool!
Described in the following is the external wiring for use as a switching input or output; the
respective function assignments to the switching inputs/outputs can be found in chapter 10.
Function as switching input
Figure 7.1:
Switching input connection diagram SWIO_1 and SWIO_2
If you use a sensor with a standard M12 connector, please note the following:
• Pins 2 and 4 must not be operated as switching outputs if sensors which function as
inputs are also connected to these pins.
If, for example, the inverted sensor output is connected to pin 2, and pin 2 of the bar code
reader is, at the same time, configured as an output (and not as an input), the switching
output malfunctions.
Attention!
The maximum input current must not exceed 8mA!

BUS OUT for the BCL 348i
To set up a PROFINET-IO network with other participants with linear topology, the BCL 348i
makes available another PROFINET-IO RT interface (Ethernet_1). The use of this interface
drastically reduces the cabling requirements, as only the first BCL 348i requires a direct
connection to the switch, via which it can communicate with the host. All other BCL 348i are
connected in series to the first BCL 348i, see figure 7.5.
For the connection of two BCL 348i, the "KB ET - … - SSA" ready-made cables are pre-
ferred, see table 13.9 "Bus connection cable for the BCL 348i" on page 141.
If you use user-configurable cables, note the following:
Notice!
Ensure adequate shielding. The entire connection cable must be shielded and earthed. The
signal lines must be stranded in pairs.
Use CAT 5 cable for the connection.
Notice!
For the BCL 348i as standalone device or as the last participant in a linear topology, termi-

The BCL 348i can be operated as a single device (standalone) with individual device name
in a PROFINET-IO star topology. The PLC must communicate this device name to the
participant during the "device naming" (see section "Step 5 – Configuration of the device
name - naming the device" on page 103).
Figure 7.4:
PROFINET-IO in a star topology
The innovative further development of the BCL 348i with integrated switch functionality
offers the option of networking multiple bar code readers of type BCL 348i with one another.
In addition to the classic "star topology", a "linear topology" is thus also possible.
This makes wiring the network easy and inexpensive as participants are connected to one
another in parallel.
The maximum length of a segment (connection from one participant to the next) is limited to
100m.

Up to 254 bar code readers can be networked. They must all be located in the same subnet.
To do this, the individual "device name" is assigned to each participating BCL 348i through
"device naming", using the control's configuration tool. For specific information, please refer
to section "Step 5 – Configuration of the device name - naming the device" on page 103.
Information on the necessary configuration steps can be found in chapter 10.
7.4.1
PROFINET-IO wiring
A Cat. 5 Ethernet cable should be used for wiring.
For the connection technology transition from M12 to RJ45, a "KDS ET M12 / RJ 45 W - 4P"
adapter is available that lets you connect standard network cables.
If no standard network cables are to be used (e.g. due to lacking IP… protection class), you
can use the "KB ET - … - SA" user-configurable cable on the BCL 348i, see table 13.9 "Bus
connection cable for the BCL 348i" on page 141.
The individual BCL 348i devices in a linear topology are connected with the
"KB ET - … - SSA" cable, see table 13.9 "Bus connection cable for the BCL 348i" on
page 141.
For unavailable cable lengths, you can configure your cables yourself. When doing so, make
certain that you connect TD+ on the M12 connector with RD+ on the RJ-45 connector and
TD- on the M12 connector with RD- on the RJ-45 connector, respectively, etc.
Notice!
Use the recommended connectors / sockets or the ready-made cables (See chapter 13

Short description of the webConfig tool
The webConfig tool has 5 main menus:
• Home
with information on the connected BCL 348i as well as on installation. This informa-
tion corresponds to the information in this handbook.
• Alignment
for manually starting read processes and for aligning the bar code reader. The results
of the read processes are displayed immediately. As a result, this menu item can be
used to determine the optimum installation location.
• Configuration
for adjusting decoding, for data formatting and output, switching inputs/outputs,
communication parameters and interfaces, etc. …
• Diagnostics
for event logging of warnings and errors.
• Maintenance
for updating the firmware.
The user interface of the webConfig tool is largely self-explanatory.

Notice!
On the right side of the user interface of the webConfig tool, you will find a description of the
individual modules and functions as a help text in the Information area.
The webConfig tool is available for all bar code readers of the BCL 300i series. Because
configuration of the BCL 348i PROFINET-IO device is performed via the PROFINET-IO
Controller, the module overview shown in the webConfig tool is, in this case, used only for
displaying and checking the configured parameters.
The current configuration of your BCL 348i is loaded upon startup of the webConfig tool. If
you change the configuration via the control while the webConfig tool is running, you can use
the
"Load parameter from device" button after making the changes to update the display
in the webConfig tool. This button appears in the upper left in the center window area in all

General information on the PROFINET-IO implementation of the
BCL 348i
10.1.1
PROFINET-IO communication profile
The communication profile defines how participants serially transmit their data via the
transmission medium.
The PROFINET-IO communication profile is designed for efficient data exchange on the field
level. The data exchange with the devices is mainly cyclical. For the configuration, operation,
monitoring and alarm handling, however, acyclic communication services are also used.
Depending on the communication requirements, PROFINET-IO offers suitable protocols
and transfer methods:
• Real Time communication (RT) via prioritized Ethernet frames for
•
Cyclical process data (I/O data stored in the I/O area of the control)
•
Alarms
•
Clock synchronization
•
Neighborhood information
•
Address assignment/address resolution via DCP
• TCP/UDP/IP communication via standard Ethernet TCP/UDP/IP frames for
•
Establishing communication and
•
Acyclic data exchange, and also for the transfer of various information types such as:
- Parameters for the configuration of the modules during the establishment of the
communication
- I&M data (Identification & Maintenance functions)
- Reading diagnostic information
- Reading I/O data
- Writing device data
