Before you start Introduction The MaxiScan 3010 Network System is designed to connect a network of up to 20 MaxiScan 3100 and/or 3300 scanners. This Installation Guide explains how to install your MaxiScan 3010 and how to set up a network configuration.
Cabling Power supply MaxiScan 3100 MaxiScan 3300 MaxiScan 3010 Network System complies with IP51 norms. A dry and dust-protected environment is recommended. Use EasySet System setup software to set up your MaxiScan Network. Test your setup before you install the MaxiScan 3010 Network System permanently.
Installation MaxiScan 3010 Network System connections How you connect up your MaxiScan 3010 Network System depends on the number and type of scanners in the network as well as the power rating of the power supply connected to the MaxiScan 3010.
Custom lengths can be provided on request. These cables can provide power supply and synchronization signals to the MaxiScan slave units on the network via the MaxiScan 3010 Network System if required. Each cable can be daisy-chained to another by connecting the daisy-chain end (2) of the first cable to the MNS/daisy-chain end (3) of the second cable.
Installation configurations There are several installation configurations possible with the MaxiScan 3010 Network System and depending on the number of scanners in the network, you may need to use the MaxiScan Connection System (MCS boxes). Study each case carefully to select the type of installation that best fits your needs:...
The MaxiScan 3100 units are connected to the network with an RS-232/485 adapter cable. The scanners, with adapter cable, are then interconnected to the MaxiScan 3010 Network System through an RS-485 network cable. All MaxiScan 3100 share the same power supply and I/O synchronization lines.
If you are using a standard MaxiScan power supply (15 V), you can only connect up to three MaxiScan 3100 units to the MaxiScan 3010 Network System. If you want to connect more than three scanners, you must use the alternative...
The MaxiScan 3100 units are connected to their respective standard MaxiScan Connection System (MCS) boxes through an RS-232/485 adapter cable. All standard MCS boxes are then interconnected to the MaxiScan 3010 Network System through an RS-485 network cable. Each scanner has its own power supply and manages its own I/O synchronization lines via the MCS boxes.
MaxiScan 3300 network The MaxiScan 3300 units are directly interconnected to the MaxiScan 3010 Network System through an RS-485 network cable. All scanners share the same power supply and I/O synchronization lines. MaxiScan 3010 - Installation Guide...
If you are using a standard MaxiScan power supply (15 V), you can only connect up to two MaxiScan 3300 units to the MaxiScan 3010 Network System. If you want to connect more than two scanners, you must use the alternative...
The MaxiScan 3300 units are connected to their respective standard MaxiScan Connexion System (MCS) boxes. All standard MCS boxes are then interconnected to the MaxiScan 3010 Network System through an RS-485 network cable. Each MaxiScan has its own power supply and manages its own I/O synchronization lines.
To avoid transmitting the same code twice, data read by both scanners within a specified period of time is checked and filtered by the MaxiScan 3010. This is the multihead timeout that must be defined during setup with EasySet. The bar code read twice will only be transmitted one time.
Controlled by the MaxiScan 3010 The synchronization device is connected to the SYNCHROS port on the MaxiScan 3010 or a message is sent to the MaxiScan 3010 by the host system. Controlled by each scanner in the network Input synchronization can be controlled individually by each scanner in the network.
Input synchronization examples Input synchronization using the Maxiscan 3010 with a 5 VDC voltage Example: Reading triggered by an opto-coupled MLV 40-8/28 (VISOLUX) cell. Pin 7 brings the SI+ signal to the MaxiScan 3010. In all cases, the synchronization current provided by the external input device must be limited to 20 mA max (15 mA is a good average value).
Example: Reading triggered by an opto-coupled MLV 40-8/28 (VISOLUX) cell. SYNCHROS 9-pin subD Pin 8 brings the SI+ signal to the MaxiScan 3010 in an adjustable configuration of resistors (via 3 jumpers) for different voltage inputs. In all cases, the synchronization current provided by the external input device must be limited to 20 mA max (15 mA is a good average value).

Controlled by the MaxiScan 3010 The MaxiScan 3010 can send information to an external device or directly to the host system after a good read, no read or network failure. Controlled by each scanner in the network Output synchronization can also be controlled individually by each scanner in the network.

Disconnect all power supplies. Using the network cables, connect the slave units to the MaxiScan 3010 directly on the SCANNER BUS port (or via the MCS boxes if applicable), connect the HOST cable, and connect the SYNCHROS cable if applicable.

Activate each MaxiScan 3300 as a slave unit. You can activate up to 20 slaves with EasySet. Once the scanner has been activated as a slave, communication between the MaxiScan 3300 and EasySet is cut off. You must activate the slaves at the end of setup.
You must configure your scanner(s) before activating each of them as a slave unit. Read this code to activate synchronization controlled by the MaxiScan 3010: To set up synchronization controlled by the MaxiScan 3300, see the MaxiScan 3300 Installation Guide.
Start EasySet System power ON When the power is switched on, the MaxiScan 3010 is in configuration mode (19200, 8, N, 2) and remains in this mode until it receives data from a MaxiScan unit on the network (when a scanner reads a bar code). Once it has read a bar code the MaxiScan goes in to default configuration (9600, 7, E, 2).
