INTERNAL NETWORK CONFIGURATIONS
PRODUCT REFERENCE GUIDE 145
INTERNAL NETWORK CONFIGURATIONS
Internal Network configurations (also called Master/Slave configurations), are designed
to collect data from several devices connected together in an ID-NET™ network and
send data output to the Host system.
DL.CODE has a Net Autoset feature for the Internal ID-NET Network which automatically
recognizes and assigns addresses to all connected Slave readers.
In order to automatically recognize the ID-NET Slaves, all devices must be physically
installed and electrically connected (including ID-NET network wiring).
The general procedure (also detailed in the following paragraphs) is to:
1. Mount all the readers mechanically (refer to "
Mechanical Dimensions" on page 56
and "Mounting And Positioning Matrix 320" on page 62) and electrically (refer to "ID-
NET Interface" on page 85
) with factory default settings (Layout Type = Alone, Inter-
nal Network Role = Slave).
2. Run DL.CODE and verify that all the devices are discovered and shown in the
device list area.
3. Connect to the designated Master device in DL.CODE and open the Setup Internal
Network Configuration. You will be prompted to change the device to Master.
Click OK. The Slave units will automatically be recognized. See "
Master Configura-
tion" on page 146
.
4. Depending on the application, select Set Default Multidata Configuration or Set
Default Synchronized Phase Mode Configuration.
5. Connect to each Slave reader via Ethernet and set the Slave specific parameters
depending on the application type. Save each Slave specific configuration. See
"
Multidata ID-NET Network Configurations" on page 148 or "Synchronized ID-NET
Network Configurations" on page 153
.
6. For Synchronized networks Verify/Test network performance. See "
Verify Master/
Slave Synchronized Configuration" on page 157
.
7. Perform the Backup current Internal Network configurations procedure. See
"
Backup" on page 161.
