DS5100 REFERENCE MANUAL 5 TYPICAL LAYOUTS The following typical layouts refer to system hardware configurations. Dotted lines in the figures refer to optional hardware configurations within the particular layout. These layouts also require the correct setup of the software configuration parameters. Complete software configuration procedures can be found in the Guide To Rapid Configuration in the Genius Help On Line.
TYPICAL LAYOUTS 5.2 EXTERNAL FIELDBUS USING HOST MODE INTERFACE MODULES In this layout a single scanner functions as a Slave node on a Fieldbus network. The data is transmitted to the Host through an accessory Fieldbus interface board installed inside the CBX500 connection box.
DS5100 REFERENCE MANUAL 5.3 BUILT-IN ETHERNET NETWORKS 5.3.1 External Trigger Ethernet Host (x3xx models only) In this layout, before proceeding with the connection, it is necessary to configure the reader Ethernet parameters via Genius. For further details see par. 2.10. When using a Local Area Network (LAN), one or more DS5100-x3xx model scanners can be connected to the network by using CAB-ETH-M0x cables.
TYPICAL LAYOUTS 5.4 BUILT-IN PROFINET-IO NETWORKS The PROFINET-IO interface is used to collect data from several readers to build a multi-point or a multi-sided reading system; there can be one PROFINET-IO Controller (Host) and up to 255 PROFINET-IO Devices (Scanners) connected together in the same subnetwork. Before proceeding with the connection, it is necessary to configure the scanner.
DS5100 REFERENCE MANUAL 5.4.2 Single Station Layout with Dual Port Scanners (x4xx models) More than one DS5100-x4xx (dual port) model scanner is chained together in the PROFINET-IO network by using an ETH CABLE M12-M12 cable. The first scanner in the chain is connected to a Certified PROFINET-IO Switch or PLC using a CAB-ETH-M0x cable.
TYPICAL LAYOUTS 5.4.3 Multi Station Layout with Dual Port Scanners (x4xx models only) More than one DS5100-x4xx (dual port) model scanner is chained together in the PROFINET-IO network by using an ETH CABLE M12-M12 cable. The first scanner in the chain is connected to a Certified PROFINET-IO Switch or PLC using a CAB-ETH-M0x cable.
DS5100 REFERENCE MANUAL 5.5 EBC™ NETWORKS (x4xx models only) The DS5100 dual port model can be integrated into a Large Synchronized Network (multi- scanner reading station) using the proprietary EBC network interface. The SC5000 (Controller) is the station master and the DS5100 and/or DS8110/DX8210 EBC slave scanners are connected together in the same subnetwork.
Page 95
TYPICAL LAYOUTS DS5100-x4xx models can only be integrated into EBC networks as slave scanners where SC5000 is the Master Controller. To do this: 1. Physically mount and electrically connect the DS5100 scanner in the application. 2. To set the DS5100 scanner as an EBC Slave, follow the EBC network selection procedure described in step 4, X-PRESS Configuration.
