QL300 / QL500
Quick Link ID-NET
™ Connectors
DESCRIPTION
The QL series ID-
NET™ connectors provide a fast and efficient way to
cable an ID-
NET™ network using standard cables. The QL300/500s are
typically Master ID-
NET™ connectors designed to be used with the
QL100/150/200s ID-
NET™ Slave connectors.
The QL300 is a passive connection module which can be used in
Standalone or ID-
NET™ Master Multidata, Slave Multidata or Master
Synchronized layouts. It provides separate ports for Power Supply,
External Trigger, Digital I/O and Communication. Host communication is
provided through connectivity to the reader Main serial interface
(RS232/485) or Aux RS232 serial interface.
ID-
NET™ network and power supply signals are sent out to the next
connected device by means of a dedicated port, however input power is
not received from the network. Therefore each QL300 must be powered
separately.
The QL500 is an active connection module which can be used in
Standalone or ID-
NET™ Master Multidata, or Master Synchronized
layouts. It provides separate ports for Power Supply, External Trigger,
Digital I/O and Communication. Host communication is provided through
the integrated Ethernet module which connects internally to the reader's
Main serial interface. Reader Aux RS232 serial interface is also provided.
ID-
NET™ network and power supply signals are sent out to the next
connected device by means of a dedicated port, however there is no
network input connector and therefore it cannot be used as an ID-
NET™
Slave.
Starting from software release 2.02.01 the QL500 also supports complete
Backup & Restore functionality (Configuration and Environmental
parameter storage) for network, Master and up to 9 Slave devices. See
the QL500 software release verification note on the opposite page.
The QL series are compatible with the following readers:
DS2100N
Matrix 210™
Matrix 450™
DS2400N

CAUTION
Connect Input Power only to the 3-pin Power
connector. Attempts to power the device from any other
connector can result in damage to the connected
devices.

CAUTION
Do not connect GND and SGND to different (external)
ground references. GND and SGND are internally
connected through filtering circuitry which can be
permanently damaged if subjected to voltage drops over
0.8 Vdc.
MOUNTING
There are two self-threading screws provided for mounting the QLs to
various wooden or plastic surfaces. Mounting to other surfaces such as
concrete walls or metallic panels requires user-supplied parts (screws,
screw anchors, nuts, etc). Keep in mind that the connected reader must
have its Chassis grounded to Earth, see paragraph "Grounding".
QLs can also be mounted to a Bosch Frame using the BA200 mounting
accessory.
The distance between mounting bushings is given in the overall
dimension diagram for each QL.
NOTE
IP65 protection is provided when the cables (or QLs)
are properly mated.
GROUNDING
All the readers in the network must have their
Chassis and ID-
NET™
shield connected to Earth ground
.
For readers in the network connected through a CBX or SC4000, connect
the Earth signal to a good earth ground and set the internal Chassis and ID-
NET™ shield jumpers to
Earth
.
When using isolated power supplies, Earth grounding can be
accomplished through the CAB-PW-EXT accessory cable and the BA400
or QL200/300/500 Power connector.

For readers in the network connected through QLs, there are two general
cases regarding network grounding:
1. Grounding through conductive metal brackets or frames.
When the QL connectors are mounted to conductive metal brackets
and/or frames it is sufficient to provide a good Earth ground to the
metal frame. In this case all readers have their Chassis as well as
their ID-
NET™ shield connected to Earth ground through the QL
mounting bushings.
2. Grounding to isolated (non-metallic) brackets or surfaces (i.e.
plastic, wood, concrete).
Connect a flying lead from the QL mounting bushing to an Earth
ground. The mounting bushings are internally connected to the reader
Chassis and to the ID-
NET™ shield.
