8. BioMax2 / KBio2-Online electronics configuration
BioMax2 or KBio2-Online electronics configuration consists of two parts:
• Parameter array: these are an array of bytes that allow certain machine
characteristics to be defined in terms of function (timings, parameter enabling/
disabling, etc.).
• IP configuration: data required for machine operations in a local area network
(Ethernet).
BioMax2 / KBio2-Online electronics configuration is stored in EEPROM memory,
which provides it with around 10,000 read/write cycles. This should be taken into
account when managing the configuration parameters.
