5.1. Device Connections to Modules
Before the Auto-Configuration Procedure can be performed; each individual Ai2 Module needs to have its
associated MDR’s and photo-sensors connected in the proper way for expected operational results.
In general, each Ai2 Module detects which Sensor ports have a device connected and will use this to
determine its specific configuration once it has been instructed to self-configure by the Auto-Configuration
Procedure.
Before starting to configure your system to operate, each MDR and photo-sensor needs to be properly
connected to the Ai2 Modules mounted on the conveyor. Modules will determine how to operate based upon
how the photo-sensors and MDR’s are connected.
A single Ai2 Module can operate as a:
2 zone controller
with 2 MDR’s and 2
photo-sensors
1 zone controller
with 1 MDR and 1
photo-sensor on
Left or Right Side
The number of Sensors connected will determine the total number of Zones. Once Auto-
Configuration is complete, this number of Zones cannot be modified or over-ridden without
performing another Auto-Configuration Procedure.
