5.1 STEP 1 – Connect the System
NOTE: This section illustrates a standalone application. For a pass-through installation, refer to the
appropriate section. For complete scanner configuration using the GeniusPlus configuration program,
refer to the Context-Sensitive Help On-Line.
To connect the system in a standalone configuration, you need the hardware indicated below. In this layout, the data is
transmitted to the Host on the main serial interface.
•
In Local Echo communication mode, data is transmitted on the RS-232 auxiliary interface independently from the
main interface selection.

When On Line Operating mode is used, the scanner is activated by an External Trigger (photoelectric sensor) when
the object enters its reading zone.
