RUNNING PRINCIPLE
CW1000 can run on 3 different modality:
- OFFLINE (only mechanical)

This modality can be selected for testing, training, maintenance etc.
On this modality all ‘data management’ are disabled (barcode, printers etc..)
- INTERNAL MODE
In this modality, CW1000 will read a barcode on the incoming section, will
track internally this barcode and will print on shipping label
- EXTERNAL MODE
In this modality, CW1000 can be connected to an External Customer
Information System (CIS) to exchange data using socket messages via
TCP/IP with the WMS Warehouse Management System.
The following documentation is related the EXTERNAL MODE using protocol CIS 2.3
PRODUCTION FLOW
When the operator ‘read’ the barcode on Item by hand scanner or optionally by camera
On Top, the CW1000 will send a message ‘ENQ’ (Enquire) to ‘CIS’ containing the barcode
just scanned.
‘CIS’ will reply to CW1000 with a MESSAGE ‘enq’ containing all product information
related this barcode (flag ValidCode ‘YES/NO’ ,description etc.. see below).
If Flag ValidCode is YES (the item is considered valid by CIS), the incoming belt will start
the movement (yellow arrow flow) and the item is inducted in the machine.
CW1000 will inform CIS about the item just started with the message ‘IND’ (inducted).
CW1000 will now measure the maximum 3 sizes (L,H,W) of item just inducted using the
3D dimensional bars.
Just after the 3D bars, CW1000 will send back the message ‘ACK’ to inform CIS if item is
‘accepted’ or not (may rejected because out of range).
If size of item is out of range (some sizes exceed the maximum allowed for this carton
width) , the CW1000 will divert automatically this item without stopping line, on the gate
just after the measurement bar.
If the item has been accepted, the CW1000 will proceed with Creation of Box on Forming
section (blue arrow flow) , will insert the item inside the box just composed (orange arrow
flow), will close the box (green arrow flow) and will delivery on output belt.

Just after receiving ‘ACK’, CIS will produce and send the data_label with the message
‘PRN’ to CW1000 who will store, buffering and send to printer on the correct timing.
Optionally (if installed) ,at the correct time CW1000 will request to print the invoice with
the MESSAGE ‘INV’; in this case, ‘CIS’ need to send the data formatted directly to the
laser printer (see above).
When the box is at the end of the line, just in front of thermal labeler , the CW1000 send
MESSAGE ‘LAB’ to ‘CIS’ within initial bar code , ReferenceID , box status (good or bad)
and all others data related this box (sizes , weight etc)
After the label is printed and applied , a bar code reader will verify the correct matching;
CW1000 will send MESSAGE ‘END’ within final box status and all information about box
(good or rejected, sizes etc).
Note: If the Item is “accepted” by the 3D bars , and has been removed manually from the
machine, CW1000 will send the MESSAGE ‘REM’ (removed) to indicate that the item is not
passed through the end of the machine.
CIS can check the current status of CW1000 at any time using the message ‘STS’ (status).
CMC will return and answer with the current status.
At any time, as debug or troubleshooting , there is an ‘heartbeat’ message to check the

connection between systems.
This message can be generated and sent ‘on demand’ either from CIS to CW1000 or from
CW1000 to CIS.

MESSAGE TIMING
t0 Time when the operator ‘scan’ the item

t1 Time when CW1000 receive the info related the item
t2 Time when the item start the induction (if product is valid)
t3 Time when item has been measured and size are checked

t9 Time when the label has been applied
t10 Time when the barcode reader have verified the label correct

CIS PROTOCOL rel 2.3
TCP SOCKET
To send/receive information between CW1000 and CIS, we use TCP socket messages
Client/Server methodology.
CW1000 can be declared as Client or Server on the TCP/IP communication according the
customer preferences.
As default CW1000 is Server.
If CMC is declared as CLIENT, CW1000 will continuously retry to open the connection if
close or in error (connect) every 3 seconds.
If CMC is declared as SERVER, CW1000 will stay in Listen on a definable port on the IP
address of the PC socket card , waiting for connection request.
As default the listening port is ‘10001’ (can be changed on the .INI file)
PLEASE NOTE:
Due to the unpredictable position of the items and boxes, some messages can be sent and
received ‘very close’ between them.
Example:
When the operator scan an item, CW1000 send the ‘ENQ’ message but on the same time
may be another box is under the printer and then CW1000 send ‘LAB’ message.
In order to prevent communication compliances, CW1000 will ensure in any cases a

minimum time gap between messages of 50 ms.

MESSAGES STRUCTURE
Messages will follow those common rules:
FRAME
Each message will start with <STX> (0x02 hex) and will be ended by <ETX> (0x03 hex)
Example:
<stx>0001|ENQ|1|200001234|<etx>
MACHINE ID
After the <STX>there is the Machine ID:
Example:
<stx>0001|ENQ|1|200001234|<etx>
MESSAGE TYPE
After the MachineID there are 3 chars to identify the Message Type:
Example:
<stx>0001|ENQ|1|200001234|<etx>
FIELD SEPARATOR
All fields are separated by delimiter Pipe “|”
Example:
<stx>0001|ENQ|1|200001234|<etx>
SENDER & RECEIVER

If the Message Type is in CAPITAL LETTERS means is GENERATED BY THE SENDER TO THE
RECEIVER DIRECTION (REQUEST MESSAGE)
Example of senders:
<stx>0001|ENQ|1|200001234|<etx>
If the Message Type is in lower case letters means is the ANSWER TO RELATED MESSAGE
(from Receiver to Sender direction)
Example of return from receiver:
<stx>0001|enq|1|1|0|0101|4|200001234|000ABCD|IABD|LAB|860|Book|<etx>
MESSAGE PAIRED
All messages are ‘paired’ : for each message sent need to return an answer message.
Example:
Tx : <stx>0001|ENQ|1|200001234|<etx>
Rx : <stx>0001|enq|1|1|0|0101|4|200001234|000ABCD|IABD|LAB|860|Book|<etx>
DEFAULT VALUES
All numeric values not populated must be ‘0’ (zero)
All Alphanumeric values not populated must be ‘’ (empty/blank)
Example:
<stx>0001|enq|1|000ABCD|1|1|||200001234|INVABCD|LABELABCD||Book Photo|||<etx>
(empty alphanumeric fields)

related the ‘TimeOut’ receiving answer from Server.
In any case, also if the message is received delayed (over the timeout), CMC will accept
the message , will display the content and will allow to induct the item.
Please considering, to reach the speed 1000 p/h , the global time to : scan , send ‘ENQ’,
receive valid ‘enq’, induct product , need to be less than 3.6 seconds otherwise the

DEVICES
BARCODE READER
To read the codes on Items on incoming section , CMC use as default an hand scanner
DATALOGIC PowerScan PD9530 able to read all common codes 1D or 2D on the market
(CODE128,EAN,UPC,DATAMATRIX etc)
CMC will offer the capability to install a camera ‘ON TOP’ (Datalogic Magellan vs3200)
located on the lateral side of loading area in order to read automatically all codes made in
evidence by operator.
For the verification of final label and for the verification of the Invoice (if required) and
the verification of the ColorPrint (if required) CMC will install a reader Datalogic Matrix
300N able to read all commons codes 1D and 2D.

INVOICE PRINTER (optional)
As printer for Invoice , if request , CMC install a Laser Printer type :
KYOCERA FS9350
port Ethernet
We use this printer with a fast Warm Up in order to reach the target speed of
1000 invoices/hours. In fact all common Laser Printers take time printing first copy
(warming time) and we can have delays during start /stop on machine.
As default the printer will print in ‘portrait’ A4 Face Up.
Optionally we can print ‘landscape’ A4 Face Up ; in this case, we need to install a special
device on CW1000 to ‘turn 90 deg’ the paper.
Optionally we can add a folder after the printer to create an A5 (one fold on middle)
Optionally we can accumulate up to 3 pages together
Different formats need to be evaluated changing some mechanical parts.
This printer is recommended to print up to 300.000 pages/mount
LABELLER
As labeler CMC install a Zebra thermal print head with Weber Applicator 4050 (or 5300
model for USA market):
ZEBRA model ZE500 4 inches

Resolution 300 DPI (200 DPI on request)
protocol ‘ZPL or ZPL II’
port Ethernet
The label format is from 100mm x 100mm to 100mm x 180mm (on printing direction);
please note, formats need to be defined in order to have the correct mechanical plates.
As standard, we supply 100mm x 150 mm

CHECK WEIGHT (optional)
As a scale, if request, CMC will install the following:
METTLER TOLEDO 40 ICS 469
Range from 0 to 30 Kg
Resolution 5 grams
Port Ethernet
Module contact Start/Stop
At the end of the line CMC will install a check weight to verify if the final box match the
weight of the Item inducted (+ weight of cardboard used to produces this box)
CW1000 will calculate the weight of the cardboard on box using the AREA_OF_BOX
multiplied by SPECIFIC_GRAVITY (grams/SqMeter)
CW1000 will track this weight along the line and will send to ‘CIS’ on the LAB message.
‘CIS’, when receive the LAB message, can decide if the global weight of the box is correct
or not and can send a FLAG TO REJECT BAD BOX to CW1000 (see ‘lab’ message).
