Assisted Setup
When you click the Assisted Setup
button in the Start view, a dialog
will appear asking you a series of application-based questions. Based
on your answers, WebLink generates your initial setup automatically. Once
the setup is created, you can fine-tune its parameters in the Setup view.
The Assisted Setup dialog is designed to be logical and intuitive, and
follows this sequence:
- You are asked which code types you will be reading in your application.
Code types can be added by clicking directly in the code type field
and selecting them from a dropdown menu.
- Then you are asked how many codes you need to read at once (in
a single read cycle). Type the number of codes you need to read directly
in the text field or select a number using the up and down arrows.
- You are then given a selection of four application types, which
represent the available selections in the Cycle area of the left panel in the Setup view. The
icons represent the Presentation,
Continuous, Triggered, and Start / Stop Cycle Types.
- The next question is whether or not you need the decoded
data to match an existing string of data. This enables or disables
Match
String.
- If the answer to the previous question is Yes,
a follow-up question appears asking for the exact output string that
the decoded data must match. If the answer to the previous question
is No, the follow-up
question does not appear.
- Finally, you are asked if you want to rename the reader.
If Yes, a text
field appears in which you can type the reader's new name. The reader's
MAC ID is also shown to the right of the text field.
Click Create
Setup to configure your WebLink setup automatically based on your
answers to the Assisted Setup questions.
Note: Reader
settings are defaulted when Assisted Setup settings take effect.
