9.1 Option D—Integrated Display in the Read Head, Type LS...D
Integrated Display Module
The WCS3B reader can be equipped with an optional display module or can be retrofitted at
the factory. During the reader's movements, the display module reports the current position
value and any error messages. If the reader has been stationary for more than 15 seconds, the
display module issues additional diagnostics data alternately with the position value in a rotat-
ing cycle. (See the WCS catalog).
You can rotate the character position on the display 180° using the S1D DIP switch. This allows
you to read the displayed values easily regardless of the installation position of the reader.
