Figure 40 - BTK-6000 Network Terminator
NOTE
For Fieldbus models no terminator must be inserted in the reader, since it
is internally integrated.
Lonworks Interface
The Lonworks network is used for both input and output connection to build a multi-sided or
omni-station system connecting several readers.
The DS6500 master usually employs the 9-pin female connector for output connection to the
first slave, while the 9-pin male one is terminated by inserting the BTK6000 terminator (see
par. 2.7.2 for details). If creating a T network configuration, it is necessary to use both
connectors to create the double branch line to which connecting the slave readers.
Both connectors are always employed when connecting together the slave readers. In
particular, the 9-pin female connector is used for output connection and the male one for
input connection. The female connector is always terminated in the last slave reader to close
the system network.
The following diagram represents the connection between a DS6500-XXX-010 working as
master and a DS6500-XXX-010 working as a slave reader.
