Installation Of Multiple Sensors (Digital And Analog, Address Mode); Installation Of Multiple Sensors (Digital And Analog, Tag Mode) - RayTek TX Operating Instructions Manual

4.5.6 Installation of Multiple Sensors (digital and analog, address mode)

Maximum 12 sensors can be used.
Analog and digital communication for the sensor with polling address 0.
Communication for the remaining 11 sensors purely digital.

The sensing heads are factory-programmed with "Polling Address 0"!
When installing a number of sensors, note that each sensing head must first be assigned a separate
polling address (0 to 11), section 4.5.4

4.5.7 Installation of Multiple Sensors (digital and analog, tag mode)

To run a sensor with analog current output, the sensor is to address with polling address 0. In case of
having multiple sensors running with analog current output, the polling address can not be the
criteria to distinguish between the sensors, because every sensor would be set to the same address. To
avoid this, a sensor can be named by means of a so called tag. The tag will be stored within the units
memory and can later be used to identify the sensor uniquely.
