Getting Started • System Overview • 19
A Master 400/800/1200/2400 must be used to connect two sensors in a dual-sensor system. Gocator
Power and Ethernet to Master cordsets are used to connect sensors to the Master.
Multi-Sensor System
Master 400/800/1200/2400 networking hardware can be used to connect two or more sensors into a
multi-sensor system. Gocator Master cordsets are used to connect the sensors to a Master. The Master
provides a single point of connection for power, safety, encoder, and digital inputs. A Master
400/800/1200/2400 can be used to ensure that the scan timing is precisely synchronized across
sensors. Sensors and client computers communicate viaan Ethernet switch (1 Gigabit/s recommended).
Master 400/800/1200/2400 networking hardware does not support digital, serial, or analog output.
