DX6400 2 Large Synchronize d Network When building a large local Lonworks network (more than 10 scanners), an SC6000 Controller must be used together with a PWO power supply/junction box unit. In this case the SC6000 unit acts as the system master and is connected to the host through one of its interfaces. All scanners act as slaves and ar e connec[...]

INSTALLATION 2 Multidata Network In this layout, one master and up to 7 DX6400 slave readers have their own P.S. and therefore multiple reading phases. Each P.S. is connected through a C-BOX 100, which in turn is connected to its relative scanner through a CAB-60XX cable. The master sends all the individual messages collected from the Lonworks inte[...]

DX6400 2 2.5.6 Fieldbus Network The Fieldbus Ethernet model offers connectivity without any converter or adapter needed. The DX6400 master Fieldbus communicates with a remote host (for ex. remote PC connected via Internet) by means of a cable con nected to the Fieldbus connector provided. It can be activated by a signal generated by the remote Host[...]

INSTALLATION 2 2.6 DX6400 FLASH™ DYNAMIC FOCUS The DX6400 has an innovative linear motor designed to control the focus position of the scanner via software. This dynamic system, called FLASH™ , is able to move the focus position rail to rail, from the minimum position to the maximum position. The FLASH™ functionalities are programmed via t he[...]

DX6400 2 2.6.3 Triggered Mode In Triggered mode, the focus position can be set depending on the received external input (photocell, barrier, serial message…). This mode represents the most traditional Flash™ function, since it requires photocells, barriers or a dedicated interface to the Host (PC or PLC). Figure 50 – Flas h™ Triggered Mode [...]
