Genius™ Network Setup Through Master
The Network Setup allows configuring your Local Lonworks Network through the Master
using Genius™.
Three different procedures are available to define the number of network slave scanners,
their label and address according to two main conditions:
Condition Available Procedure Feature
Unknown Slave Addresses Net-Autoset automatically assigns random addresses to
slave or Stand Alone scanners.
Known Slave Addresses Network Wizard customizes the network (slave label and
address definition and physical identification
of a specific slave within network), updates
configuration to a file and makes it ready to
be sent to the Master.
Express Network Setup automatically performs all the operations of
the Network Wizard apart from the physical
identification of a specific slave scanner.
NOTE
The Network Setup procedure as described requires Genius™ software
version 1.06 or later. In addition, the Net-Autoset procedure requires
scanner software version 6.40 or later.
