OPERATION MODES
The NSM/DISCx000 Optical Libraryes offer several operation modes which
can be selected by the mode select switch at the back of the Optical Library.
The function of the ID switch depends on the selected mode. Which mode
has to be selected depends on the host application which is used to control
the robotic of the Optical Library.

RS232 MODE
The RS 232 mode has to be selected if the robotic of the Optical Library
should be controlled via the serial interface (RS 232). The factory default for
the RS 232 ID is 00. The ID needs to be changed only, if more than one
Optical Library should be connected to the serial bus.
Do not connect more than 3 Optical Libraryes to the serial bus. If more
than 3 Optical Libraryes are connected to the serial bus, the signal
might be disturbed.
The maximum cable length of the serial bus must not exceed 15 m.
