Id-Net™ Synchronized Network - Datalogic Matrix 300 Reference Manual

TYPICAL LAYOUTS
5.2 ID-NET™ SYNCHRONIZED NETWORK
The ID-NET™ connection is used to collect data from several readers 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 readers are connected together using the ID-NET™ interface. Every slave reader
must have an ID-NET™ address in the range 1-31.
The master reader is also connected to the Host on the RS232/RS485/422 main serial
interface.
For a Master/Slave Synchronized layout the External Trigger signal is unique to the system;
there is a single reading phase and a single message from the master reader to the Host
computer. It is not necessary to bring the External Trigger signal to all the readers.
In the Master/Slave Synchronized layout the Master operating mode can only be set to
Phase Mode.
The main, auxiliary, and ID-NET™ interfaces are connected as shown in the following
figures.
Power
The Master reader can be connected to the CBX series connection box with the advantage
of the Backup and Restore configuration function (CBX + BM100 module).
