Communication; To Get Started Easily; Enable / Disable Network Machines For Optimized Communication - Belitronic BJ5000 Ex Manual

With communication between machines, the following can be done ...
• Monitor all (36) machines Line out, motor, wheel, and fish status from any machine in groups of 6
machines per display image.
• Send pushbutton to all machines (36pcs) in a group of 6pcs from any machine. Applies to the [Z]ero,
[A]uto, [S]top and [U]p.
• Co-operation between the machines at the time of registration in the group. If multiple groups are
used, machines within the groups can collaborate, but not between them. All machines can also be
individually configured to help other machines and if they want help, or work individually, see
Cooperation mode [E651 PPP].

To get started easily.

1. To avoid avoid Complications , start with two machines only.
2. Connect the electrical cables for the communication, see Chapter Installation.
3. Set Communication Mode [E651] to "Master" on machine 1. (this machine is from now on called
master machine).
4. Set Address [E651 P] to "1" and Group [E651 PP] to "A" (Default).
5. Set Communication Mode [E651] on machine 2 to "Slave".
6. Set Address [E651 P] to "2" and Group [E651 PP] to "A" (Default).
7. When more machines are attached to the newtwork repeate from step 5, but change Address. The
combination of Address and Group, like "1A" and "1B" must never be the same in the network. "1A"
and "1B" have the same address "1", but in two different Groups which is okay.
See other machines in the network.
Probably the communication between the machines has already started. To see if a machine is in contact
with other machines, hold the [E]enter button while the Line Out screen appears until GROUP A
appears. Group images display information about up to 6 machines. Each machine's address correlates
with a fixed location in the display. Addresses 1, 2 and 3 are shown on the top row and 4.5 and 6 on the
bottom. When a machine is contactable on the network, the respective machine's information will be
displayed. If the communication fails with a machine or is disconnected, a line will appear (-----).
Press [E]nter again to return to Main screen.

Enable / disable network machines for optimized communication.

In order to minimize lost time in communication, deactivate not used addresses in each group in the
master machine. This makes the master just skip asking and waiting for response, and jump to next used
machine. From the Main screen hold the [E]nter button, the group image is showed but keep the [E]nter
button passed until it will sounds and shows "SET" in the upper right corner. Here machines are
individual enabled or disabled. Machines set to "ON" are enabled and deactivated "OFF". To change,
press the respective buttons [1-6] below the display. To return to the Group screen, press [E]nter.
From the main screen, hold [Z]ero button for about 1 second.
GROUP screen first shown at the start is the one in which the
machine is a member. Press [P]rog button for the next group.
After the last group screen, the first appears again. . NOTE.
Shown only if communication is enabled.
Main screen
From the main screen, hold the button until it sounds
