Datalogic Matrix 300N - ID-NET Synchronized Network

ID-NET Synchronized Network
When the device is working Synchronized, the ID-NET connection is used to col-
lect data from several readers to build a multi-point or a multi-sided reading
syst
em; 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
re
ader must have an ID-NET address in the range 1-31.
The Master reader is also connected to the Host on one of its communication
ch
annels. In the following examples the RS232/RS422 main serial interface is
used.
For a Master/Slave Synchronized layout the External Trigger signal is unique to
t
he system; there is a single reading phase and a single message from the Mas-
ter 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
PackTrack or Phase Mode.
The Main and ID-NET interfaces are connecte
d as shown in the following figures.

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).
All devices always support multiple output channels (i.e. for data monitoring).
