7.1.5 Fieldbus Networks
The Fieldbus model (Ethernet) offers connectivity without any converter or adapter needed.
The DS8100A Lonworks master communicates as a Fieldbus slave to a remote host (i.e.
remote PC connected via Internet) by means of a cable connected to the Fieldbus (Ethernet)
connector provided. It can be activated by a signal generated by the remote Host or by a
physical presence sensor.
The external signals (trigger, encoder) are connected to the master through the CBX100.
The system is powered by the PWR-240 where:
the Lonworks master is connected through CAB-86xx, which also provides bus
termination
the last Lonworks slave is connected through CAB-83xx, which also provides bus return.
the Lonworks master and all Lonworks slaves are connected together through the CAB-
81xx cables
The same network layouts are available as for the DS8100A Standard model.
* P.S. (Presence Sensor) connected to Input 1 (External Trigger/PS) input.
** CBX100 jumper set to accept scanner power.
*** Encoder connected to Input 2 (Encoder) input.
