In this layout a single scanner functions as a Slave node on a Fieldbus network. The data is
transmitted to the Host through an accessory Fieldbus interface board installed inside the
CBX500 connection box.
Reader configuration can be accomplished through the Auxiliary interface using the VisiSet™
configuration program or Host Mode programming.
In Local Echo communication mode, data is transmitted on the RS232 auxiliary interface
independently from the Fieldbus interface selection.
When One Shot or Phase Mode operating mode is used, the reader can be activated by an
External Trigger (photoelectric sensor) when the object enters its reading zone.
