  • Page 92: Pass-Through

    DS4800 REFERENCE MANUAL 6.2 PASS-THROUGH Pass-through mode allows two or more devices to be connected to a single external serial interface. Each DS4800 transmits the messages received by the Auxiliary interface onto the Main interface. All messages will be passed through this chain to the host. When On-Line Operating mode is used, the scanner is activated by an External Trigger (photoelectric sensor) when the object enters its reading zone.
  • Page 93 TYPICAL LAYOUTS An alternative Pass-Through layout allows the more efficient ID-NET™ network to be used. This layout is really an ID-NET Master/Slave Multidata layout which also allows each scanner (Master and Slaves) to accept input on the Auxiliary interface, for example to connect a device such as a hand-held reader for manual code reading capability.

    DS4800 REFERENCE MANUAL 6.3 ID-NET™ The ID-NET™ connection is used to collect data from several scanners to build a multi-point or a multi-sided reading system; there can be one master and up to 31 slaves connected together. The slave scanners are connected together using the ID-NET™ interface. Every slave scanner must have an ID-NET™...
